Hey, Hey Waffle gang, I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more Reddit stories. If you do love a Reddit story, why not consider in that like, subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. Let's crack on with today's first story. With sold land around my house to a developer years ago, HOA formed and being

forced to join it and leans on my property. So long story short, today has been an absolute

shit show. I can't even comprehend where to start. So my parents owned about 30 acres of land

in the middle of nowhere Nebraska on the outskirts of my town.

My parents built their house in the late 80s and that's where I lived my whole life.

My parents passed away and I inherited the property and it's all my land, or was my land.

Back in 2005, this developer brought up a bunch of neighboring land and wanted to buy my land.

I told him I was willing to sell 10 acres furthest from the house. He adjoining section to his neighborhood. He asked

for 20 acres and I told him that the second 10 acres would be three times the price. And he

agreed and we signed the paperwork and he bought the land and I was paid for it. End the story.

Or so I thought.

The land sat empty for over a decade since it took a while for him to sell the plots

of land he made to homebuyers and his company built houses.

From about 2005 to 2012, the land sat empty.

I didn't mind.

I still mowed the grass and what not to keep it tidy,

but never tried to take the land over or anything. By fall of last year, he'd finished the entire

area, and there were about 200 homes in that neighborhood. Because of the neighborhood,

my 10 acres is now worth about 10 to 20 times what it was originally worth, and the HOA knows that.

Since the September of 2017, I've had a bunch of angry letters and citations left on my property

and in my mailbox.

Some of them include having a barn larger than 7 by 7 feet.
