We recently purchased a house. For those of you who have purchased property before you know what a whip the process is. Driving around with the realtor, negotiating, financing and the biggest beating of the all...CLOSING.
I think the closing agent was getting annoyed with me questioning so many of her documents. Two in particular stand out
- We had to sign a mineral rights waiver. Anything found under the soil does not belong to us.
- Homeowners association. Failure to pay our $180 annual fee could result in us being evicted from our own home and the property being resold.
Where are the private property rights? Let us not forget that one of the 10 major tenents of Communisim was the abolishment of private property rights. Ah, at least "freedom is on the march."
