Sometimes as a property owner you have to be tough, and to protect your asset you'll have to do 2 things: 1) Not let the tenants out of their lease. Tell them you'll do whatever you can to help the situation, but that they have to call the police and document the harassment. If you voluntarily let them out of their lease, it will be hard to go after the HOA, and this guy will keep doing this to future tenants. 2) Put together a file on the harassment, send it to the HOA, basically taking the position that this guy is acting under the authority of the HOA and you are going to sue them if it does not stop. Put a scare into them, and protect your assets. Make sure you do this with an attorney. I know you feel bad for the tenants, but you're going to have to fight this out, unless you're rich enough to not care if the house sits empty indefinitely. Keep in mind, this guy may not just be a jerk, he may be mentally ill. Have your lawyer do a search to see if there are other civil or criminal cases the guy is involved in.
