Why Are Home Owners Associations So Important?

Do you belong to one? Do you participate? Do you benefit?

Join the VRCities Home Owners Assocation

    VRCities is the premier organization working to combine online and offline activities to strengthen communities and promote prosperity. We believe that home owners associations (HOA's) are a key element to help achieve our mission.

    If you are a home owner and your neighborhood or community does not have a home owner's association, join the VRCities HOA.

    It is the one, single decision that can make and save you more money, and make your life safer and better, than just about anything else you can do!! Here's why ...

• Improve your community's economy
• Increase home valuation
• Reduce taxes
• Increase safety
• Increase quality of life
• Save on home maintenance and repair expenses
• Save on major household expenses, such as cars, insurance, jewelry
• It can help make the world a better place!

Where Is the Biggest Impact on Your Pocket Book?

    There are about 120,000,000 home owners in the United States and Canada. For most Americans and Canadians their most valuable asset is their home. Home equity represents nearly 50% of the country's total net worth. Similar ownership interest holds true for most other countries as well.

    In many nations, home owners pay a greater share of the taxes. For most home owners their share of the tax burden is 40% of their income or more.

    Do you know that in feudal systems, with serfs and slaves, taxation generally was at the 40% level or so?

    In other words after hundreds of years of economic development and technological improvements that have made production at least 40,000% more efficient, most people are still taxed as if they are serfs! Do you really believe that makes sense?

Home Owners Are at the Core

    Clearly, home owners have more to lose and more to gain by working together.

    The fact is that most home owners are not well organized, except for a relatively small number of wealthy neighborhoods.

    Think about it. If it is worth it for the wealthier people to be members of home owners associations, wouldn't it be even more important for others?
