LRPRA ARB Violation Easily Solved....

Real Estate Agent with SAMSON PROPERTIES 0225018862

The only violation noted on the LRPRA HOA Resale inspection was the window grids were missing on a home we have under contract pending settlement.

The seller almost blew a gasket thinking he was going to have to buy and install new windows.

"How could this be he asked. These windows have been here for ten years and they didn't come with grids.  Why didn't they say something  before now? And for that matter many of the homes up and down the street don't have grids. What gives?"

I suggested he go talk with the  HOA since the windows have been installed for ten years like this. Unfortunately, that little meeting didn't go well. He called very frustrated and upset thinking he would have to replace the windows.

Lucky for him, I did a little investigative work. I turned to Google!  Turns out their is a very inexpensive fix for his ARB Violation. He was so relieved.

Look what I found!

Good for you. Resolution oriented is the way to be - especially when getting a transaction to closing.

Peggy, thanks for the information. I am missing several of those in my house and had no idea I could buy them online.

Hi Debb, so true. "What can seem overwhelming and a deal killer to a homeowner is nothing more than a speed bump in the eyes of good Realtor."
