All existing voluntary agreements should IMHO be grandfathered in. But it's ultimately the decision of each property owner. In the situation of a community of apartments or houses, there's going to have to be cooperation in order for it to continue working.

I live in a community with about 120 other families and we vote as a group and for a junta. I have no problem with it because it's a private and voluntary organization with highly limited powers, like a corporation or a co-op.

Frankly, I don't see that many things about the law and agreements changing in a transition to a voluntary society. Most things will still work as they do now. It's just that governance will be decentralized and by consent only.

To specifically answer your question, it depends on the community. If it's a tower, people have to cooperate for it to work. If it's duplex houses, ditto. If it's houses on a street with a gate at the front, less cooperation is required. Ultimately, each community has to work it out amongst themselves.

What do you think?
