<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">While the statute says “property line” and a strict construction would be the homeowner property line, it is neither realistic nor in furtherance of the statute’s intent. Since the tenant after writ no longer
has any right to possession, he is a trespasser on the homeowner’s property. The statutory intent is to allow the tenant to recover his possessions without trespass. It further frustrates the statutory intent to place the tenant’s possessions at the homeowner’s
property line within a gated community to which the tenant can no longer gain access. The homeowner is going to be in violation of the HOA Decs no matter what he does – his property line or outside the gates by the street at the HOA property line. So the
lesser evil in my opinion is the HOA property line somewhere next to public access by not right by the entrance. No sense intestinally aggravating the HOA by putting it next to the entrance way. It’s common area so the homeowner isn’t trespassing on HOA
property. The HOA will issue the owner a violation notice with a cure period. The homeowner only has to leave the possessions overnight. The next morning the possessions are abandoned property. He can remove them from the street to the dumpster the next
morning. He will have cured before he even gets the violation notice.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I have not had this problem before. I represent the landlord in a residential eviction in a gated community. After the tenant was removed the property manager told me that they cannot place the personal property on the curb because it
will be a violation of the HOA rules. She wanted to know if the property could be dumped on the curb outside of the community. My answer was no, the home owner/landlord has no right to place the property by the curb outside of the HOA community gates. After
thinking about it I am not sure what the right answer is. Any insight? <o:p></o:p></p>
