Joe, I have done and continue to do a lot of painting in the Southdown/Longbay area.
Yes many of the groups in their are individual associations while a lot of the homes are stand alone. No matter where you buy you have a set of rules you abide by that govern the area as a whole outside of the individual association rules.
As for the individual associations they all have their own ways of doing things and you are at the mercy of the elected board when it comes to how things are done or prioritized. Do your homework and research past history.
I will not get into any detail as I do not live there, but I will say that while I am very happy doing work for homeowners and have a very high satisfaction rating there, I refuse to waste my time estimating jobs for any of the associations in SD or LB.
Good luck with your search.
