Finding HOAs that Allow Renters

[Ibrahim Yamini]

I've seen a few horror stories on here about investors that finally closed on a property only to find out that the HOA in the area doesn't allow renters.

I’m actually kind of surprised it isn’t talked about that often.

I’m looking more into investing OOS so this would be a MAJOR issue if it ever came up.

Is there any simple way to find out about an HOA's policy against renters if you're not even in the area?
