Developers in the US have no choice; the city/county won't permit a subdivision without an HOA.

Developers love HOAs, they initially (until the development is largely sold) completely control them and they are a tool for maintaining the image they want to sell later units. No one is forcing developers to have HOAs. (If there is policy favoring them, it was lobbied for by developers.)

It also allows them to reclaim and resell units while swindling the people who bought the lot.
