  • In this video, I’m going to breakdown the cost associated with buying a pergola from Mirador verse building one DIY style. I factor in the cost of wood, materials, and labor both ways. #diy #woodworking #furniture #pergola #outdoors

    I personally would rather have a neighbor with a house painted with pink polka dots than be restricted by an HOA. I'll never buy a house that is bound by an HOA.

    You have taken this thing to a whole other level with the deck AND pergola. Love this -- Thanks for sharing!! 💚

    I totally agree about HOA, had some issues as well. We ended up moving and four years later we found house without one. One thing that could change it is to run for the board.

    Problem is you asked them first. It's like them telling me I can't cut a tree down in my front yard. Well guess what the tree got cut down. Most HOA's aren't going to take you to court over staining a fence. Most don't even have the money to do so. They're usually people with power trips that enjoying saying no or fighting over everything. Like the old saying, it's easier to ask for forgiveness then it is for permission.

      Yeah you’re probably right. I wish I would have just done it but now I’m on the radar for asking. My bad completely.

      Doesn't sound like you have been around for long. MOST HOAs will give you a big fat fine of 500 dollar for each day you have done something that contravenes their rules. So in the three cutting case, they would have you put another, mature tree in that place, and fine you 500 dollar for each day that you take to do so.

    So Im a VP of a HOA. But first, that pergola/deck situation is 🔥 and now I want to do it. Back to the HOA part, yes to all of that. Everyone of us that are on our board are younger, diverse, and it's our community's first board. The president and I are big on nuance. Some of the rules made 0 sense to us, and since I oversee the ARC committee, we allow things that we know a more "traditional" board probably wouldn't. Like you said, boards help keep things from looking bad, which keeps prop values up and can even limit neighbor issues, but I think boards often overstep. People should be able to enjoy the homes and properties they work hard for.
    I should start a HOA page lol

    • @DesignsbyDonnie
      @DesignsbyDonnie  Месяц назад

      you can leave the pergola up year round it’s made of material that doesn’t rust and built to withstand all weather elements. Now I haven’t had it long enough to put it to the test but that’s what the literature states.
