Helping homeowners find solutions to HOA problems
In doing research for this website, I came across an article in www.siliconvalley.com that features two California startups, Association Reserves and Condofax, that will be selling Carfax style reports. I encourage you to read the entire article. I did take a look at Transparency HOA, an Oakland-based non-profit, which offers a free report, but did…
See for yourself, Nepenthe’s former attorney says, “Yes indeed!” the recall is valid at the December 18 recall election and the board should proceed. Even hear a board member say by law they have 150 days to do complete the recall election. Had they followed what counsel Brad Epstein said, the Board would not have…
On August 22nd, an anonymous email was sent from “[email protected].” This is the third “Pro-Establishment” email in the last week. I think they are getting desperate. The facts they try to present are missing the material details to be valid, but the emails are mostly full of emotion. Homeowner and recall petition signer Trish Meraz…
In case you missed it, Jerry Dunn has written two good homeowner letters about the HOA’s flood insurance that were included in July and August‘s Board packets. Jerry has worked in the insurance industry for years and also serves on his HOA board in Tahoe. Through his service on the Nepenthe Insurance, Legal and Safety…
Dear Nepenthe Homeowners, People are saying Nepenthe paid me $25,000 but it was Nepenthe’s insurance which reimbursed me for my attorney fees. After paying my attorney, I was paid only $242.35.

On August 11th, I sent this to the General Manager and asked that it appear in the September Board packet. I noticed that the…
Hello Nepenthe Neighbors, In the next few days, you will receive ballots for a Recall of Director Christina George. Her recall is the result of her violation of the Associations Bylaws, ignoring her fiduciary responsibilities and self-dealing. Her activities reflect an attitude that has permeated the whole Board*, an arrogance and disregard of the rules…
This recall election is extremely important for Nepenthe homeowners. The new directors won the last election against the two incumbents with a large margin* signaling Nepenthe homeowners want change from what I refer to as “The Establishment.” The truth is that homeowners see the HIDE AND SPEND. Unfortunately, the status quo remains as the two…
On February 23rd, a small note appeared in the Friday email blast at the very bottom titled “Ground Cover Test Site” with a picture reading: As you may have noticed, the landscaping has been modified near 328 Elmhurst. Carson has modified the area, at no cost to the Association, to determine if this is an…
Hello Nepenthe Neighbors, In the next few days you will receive ballots for a Recall Election of Director Christina George. That’s something that has not happened in my many years as a Nepenthe resident. I believe it is a very important election. I have no personal animosity toward Director George, but her activities are clear…
