And, she can't sell within a year and earn any profit on it - any profit would all go back to the developer.

Shame on them. The father would have never done this to us old timers! I knew they'd get greedy after he died.

Anyone else find these clauses immoral?
First of all, I'm foursquare behind Gracie's post.

But if you're an old-timer here, didn't you sign up under the same rules? I did, as well as about 100,000 other residents.

But then again, maybe you don't really live here, otherwise you'd know that.
