Some people like them, some couldn't care less. When I used to live in South Florida, the HOA's were affectionately known as "condo commandos". Today I read that our honorable governor has signed a bill that requires HOA's to permit for-sale signs. The bill should be in effect by the end of June. The other day I held an OPEN HOUSE in Verrado in Buckeye and Verrado doesn't allow for sale signs, nor does it allow directional signs when holding an OPEN HOUSE. All you can do is have one sign in front of the house during the time it's OPEN. I guess that's all about to change.
I'd love to know your thoughts on this...

Well the answer is we pay for the sins of our fathers...in other terms we pay for the lazty agents who put out 12 signs for an open house or a new listing and left them up for weeks on end. Even worse after the property closed there would be a sign in the neighborhood pointing people to ....
I hate to say it but I do not see anyrthing wrong with limiting the use and placement of all signs....it makes for less "Eye Noise"
Sun City Grand is similar, no signs on selected streets, for sale sign must be parallel to the street. Corta Bella requires their own sign on the property, as well as their own directional signs. Westbrook prefers their own directional signs.
I feel excessive sign regulations in a communty hurt the homeowner's ability to sell.
Jim, Verrado was just an example, you're right, Sun City, Estrella Mountain Ranch and so many others throughout the valley have very stringent signage rules and regulations.

Personally I can't stand HOAs. We buy, personally, in areas w/o one. We manage rentals as well as doing sales, so we work with many on an ongoing basis. Some of them are OK but the bad ones are really awful. WE just took over some condos to manage where they mixed up the HOA and the property management so badly it's taking months to untangle.
You're right, I thought of Estrella when I heard this. I bet this makes some of those HOA monitors pucker up.
