I have been a property owner in McGinnis Village for roughly 28 years.
I have been a property owner in McGinnis Village for roughly 28 years. It’s been a very rocky experience. Some of the troublemakers HOA members have packed up and left. However, the community still has enough bias and unfair community leaders harassing homeowners, especially single female homeowners as myself. The HOA is a huge, huge problem and always has been. I would not recommend purchasing in this Community. Although it looks small, neighborly and friendly, the reality is opposite of that. I still own property in McGinnis Village so this post is based on honesty and a warning to prospective candidates looking to own property in this area. If peace of mind from an overbearing HOA is important to you — definitely don’t purchase property in this Community. The HOA operates as a bully rather than supporting all families in the Community. Purchase elsewhere.

Buildings are falling into decay, board refuses to acknowledge or address the needed repairs.
Buildings are falling into decay, board refuses to acknowledge or address the needed repairs. Board also misuses funds, spends funds without community authorization, current board president is combative, property management company is equally as bad.

They charge you money but don't actually do anything for the community.
They charge you money but don't actually do anything for the community. We lived there about 3 years. There is a dock in the neighborhood. So, as an example, the dock had massive holes in it that a child or small dog could fall into. We asked the HOA to fix them multiple times but they never did. They randomly drive around and issue fines for things like your trash can is showing. But then when you try to call them about it, they don't pick up or call you back. They won't email back either. So I guess the good thing is, even if they issue a fine, they never come to actually collect the money. The members of the board don't actually live in the neighborhood. They live nearly two hours south in a completely different city. So, they give zero f*cks about the neighborhood and the people actually living there.
FAQ
North Carolina HOA Questions
Q1:What is North Carolina's main HOA law?
North Carolina HOAs are governed by the North Carolina Planned Community Act (N.C.G.S. § 47F) for planned communities and the North Carolina Condominium Act (N.C.G.S. § 47C) for condos.
Q2:Can a North Carolina HOA restrict a homeowner's vegetable garden?
Yes. North Carolina does not have a statute protecting the right to garden in HOA communities. If the CC&Rs restrict gardens in front yards or visible areas, the HOA can enforce that restriction.
Q3:Does North Carolina allow HOAs to foreclose on a home?
Yes. North Carolina HOAs can foreclose on a home for unpaid assessments using a non-judicial (power of sale) foreclosure process, which is faster than judicial foreclosure used in many other states.
