Recognize this?

  • Your dog was grandfathered in — now the HOA is applying a new rule retroactively
  • Breed restrictions weren't disclosed when you bought the home
  • A neighbor complained, and the HOA fined you without proper investigation
  • Multiple unfined neighbors have similar pets — selective enforcement
  • If your pet is a service or emotional support animal, fair-housing law may protect you

FAQ

Quick Answers

What about service or emotional support animals?+

The federal Fair Housing Act requires HOAs to make reasonable accommodations for assistance animals. If this applies to you, the letter can reference both state HOA law and federal FHA protections.

Is this legal advice?+

No, PushBackHOA is a self-help document tool. Fair-housing matters can be complex — consider a licensed attorney for serious cases.

Will my HOA back down?+

Many do, especially if breed restrictions weren't properly disclosed or if procedural notice was skipped. There's no guarantee, but a formal record helps.

30-day refund?+

Yes — money-back guarantee, no questions asked.
