Hosted and produced by Shu Bartholomew, "On The Commons" is a weekly radio show dedicated to discussing the many issues surrounding mandatory homeowner associations, the fastest growing form of residential housing in the nation.

If you are in an HOA, it really doesn't take much to turn your otherwise peaceful and quiet world upside down. Maybe you chose the unit you occupy because of the views from the living room window or the size of the kitchen or the proximity to work or public transportation but whatever tugged at your heart strings, you probably thought you were buying a "home". And heaven help you if you end up in an HOA controlled "hood" because sense and sensibility are non existent and you run the risk of finding yourself with a "One Way Ticket to Hell".
