My neighbor HOA denied my request for a privacy fence – I found a great loophole to get around it
A WOMAN has shared the loophole she found after her neighborhood HOA request for a privacy fence was denied.
She showed off her land after she was not allowed to have it, but she said it was “no problem” in a TikTok video.
TikTok user DC (@itsmeedc) doesn’t shy away from social media but instead embraces it.
In a TikTok video, she brought viewers into her backyard to show off a recent development project.
She told her audience that she previously sent in a request for a privacy fence to her neighborhood HOA, but it was denied.
According to Investopedia, a homeowner association (HOA) is an organization in a subdivision or planned community that makes and enforces rules for the properties and residents.
DC found a way to get around it by building a pool in her backyard, which needs a fence for safety reasons.
“No privacy fence? No problem” she added in the video caption.
The video showed the land dug up and in the development process.
“When the neighborhood HOA denies your request for a privacy fence,” the subtitle over the visual read.
Her smart move was able to get her the privacy fence that she wanted.
“I actually know the rules. This is just poking fun at them and part of a landscaping plan in process during our pool dig (which was approved),” she stated in the comments.
Many people complimented her for her quick thinking and creativity.
“Well played,” a viewer commented.
“Exactly what we are doing too! Following!!” another shared.
“I love this so much. HOA is the damn worse. It’s the Karen version of ‘tribal council’,” another added.
DC also regularly posts about random moments in her life, whether it be a home renovation, family, or health and fitness.
