THE S.I.M.F.™ FRAMEWORK
Four recurring threats every HOA homeowner faces
If you think what is happening to you is random, it is not. There are four specific patterns we see in HOA cases. They are repeated every day all across the country. "S.I.M.F." is our way of asking, which one of these describes your situation?
S
SELECTIVE
ENFORCEMENT
Addressing selective enforcement and unequal treatment.
Rules enforced against you while neighbors face zero consequences for the same violations. We help document the pattern and build a case for consistent enforcement.
I
INTERFERENCE
WITH YOUR
HOME
Protecting your right to peacefully enjoy your home.
Restrictions, fines, and demands that make living in your own property stressful, expensive, or impossible. Your home shouldn't feel like a battlefield.
M
MALFEASANCE
AT THE BOARD
Exposing conflicts of interest and self-dealing.
Negligence, favoritism, and decisions made for personal benefit rather than the community's — often in breach of the board's own fiduciary duty.
F
FRAUD
Uncovering misappropriated funds and hidden deals.
Falsified records, kickbacks to contractors, and outright theft — often enabled by those entrusted with your community's money.

THE F.A.I.R.™ SYSTEM
The F.A.I.R. System is a Strategic Way to tackle any HOA-Related Problem
Learning this system will help you see your HOA challenges more clearly. We can consult, advise and even investigate, but it's still up to you to manage your battle plan.
F
FAIRNESS
ENFORCEMENT
Addressing selective enforcement and unequal treatment.
We gather evidence of inconsistent rule application and use it for demand letters, negotiations, or formal complaints.
A
ASSERTION
OF RIGHTS
Protecting your right to peacefully enjoy your home.
We document interference and assert your rights under governing documents and state law — restoring peace faster than a prolonged fight.
I
INVESTIGATION
& EXPOSURE
Uncovering hidden facts and financial concerns.
We conduct forensic review of records, contracts, and vendor relationships to expose misconduct, kickbacks, and self-dealing.
R
RESTORATION
& ACCOUNTABILITY
Creating lasting change.
We hold wrongdoers accountable through evidence-based action — board recalls, demands for restitution, and policy reform.

YOUR INVESTIGATOR
Dave Amis
As a Texas PI, I have specialized in financial crimes: burglary, theft, and major case fraud. I came across the "HOA Game" when I was fined for a vehicle that didn't exist. I fought back and won, but also realized how many good people are getting abused by their HOA's. So my major case crew and I decided to offer this service specifically for people having problems with their HOA's. We're making a science out of it; 4 primary issues (S.I.M.F.), a 4-step process to regain control (F.A.I.R.), and AI and OSINT techniques to uncover the facts.
If you're in a battle with your HOA,
we're here to help.
