Worst HOA, cannot seem to follow by-laws. HOA board members are a dictatorship. Voter fraud, non transparency, can not ask questions, not allowed to look at books. More like a sit down shut type of board.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I sincerely wish someone had given me an honest warning before my husband and I purchased a home in Jackson Square Towne Homes. After living here for six years, my experience with the HOA has become increasingly disappointing. The HOA fees continue to increase, yet the quality of service, maintenance, and overall upkeep seems to decline. Basic community maintenance has been an ongoing concern. For example, the sprinkler system has not functioned properly for as long as I can remember, yet homeowners continue to receive notices regarding property appearance and maintenance. What makes this especially frustrating is the apparent inconsistency in how property standards are handled. Homeowners receive violation notices for things such as grass, weeds, debris, and other exterior concerns, while larger exterior maintenance issues appear to remain unresolved. Painting and exterior maintenance are another major concern. There are homes throughout the community that need exterior painting and attention, yet these issues seem to go unaddressed for extended periods. Exterior items that fall within the community’s guidelines and maintenance responsibilities also need attention or replacement. Shutters are one example. Some need to be repaired, replaced, or properly maintained, but these issues do not seem to receive the same urgency as the notices sent to individual homeowners. If residents are going to be held strictly accountable to the Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions, then the HOA should be equally accountable for maintaining the portions of the community and exterior property that fall under its responsibility. Standards should work both ways. The association’s administrative processes also feel extremely outdated, particularly regarding payment options, communication, and overall accessibility. In 2026, homeowners should have convenient and modern ways to pay their HOA fees and communicate with the association. When fees continually increase, residents should reasonably expect the level of service, maintenance, and convenience to increase as well. Unfortunately, my experience has been the opposite. One of my biggest regrets is that I did not receive the HOA guidelines and restrictions until after I had already signed for my home. Looking back, that should have been a major warning sign for me. Had I fully understood how the association operated, what homeowners were responsible for, and how maintenance issues were handled, I would not have purchased here. My husband and I are actively working toward moving out as soon as we reasonably can. If I knew then what I know now, I would have made a very different decision. For anyone considering purchasing a home in Jackson Square, my advice is simple: please do your research before you sign anything. Ask for the complete HOA covenants and restrictions before closing. Ask specifically who is responsible for painting, shutters, exterior repairs, landscaping, irrigation systems, and replacement of exterior items. Request the current fee schedule and ask what services those fees actually cover. Then drive through the community and look at the condition of the properties and common areas for yourself. I cannot speak for every homeowner, but I can speak about my six years of personal experience, and based on that experience, I would not recommend purchasing here. The continued increase in HOA fees, combined with what I have personally experienced as declining service, unresolved maintenance concerns, outdated processes, and inconsistent attention to property standards, has been extremely disappointing. Please save yourself the frustration and do your homework before moving here. I genuinely wish someone had given me this warning before we purchased our home.

This HOA was outsourced to a management group who has no clue about the real world.
This HOA was outsourced to a management group who has no clue about the real world. HOA’s were designed to help property value yet the high school girl that manages this group is running people out of the neighborhood and more houses are being listed for sale than people moving in because no one wants to deal with the bullshit. I own 3 houses in the neighborhood and will be selling them all soon due to the senseless notices.
