What Sherri Downs Owners Association Inc's governing documents say

Sherri Downs is a new single-family home subdivision in Angier, NC. This document is the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions recorded by the builder (Lennar Carolinas) for the homeowner's association (Sherri Downs Owners Association). It explains what you can and can't do with your property, what the HOA is responsible for, and the rules all owners and residents must follow.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the house on it. You must maintain your home, yard, and the sidewalk and landscaping strip between the sidewalk and street in front of your lot. The HOA maintains the common areas (like ponds, private streets, and recreation facilities).
• Leasing & rentals: You may rent your home, but leases must be in writing for a term of at least 12 months. Short-term or vacation rentals (30 days or fewer) are not allowed. You must notify the HOA of the tenant's name, provide a copy of the lease, and certify the tenant has received the rules. As an owner, you remain responsible for assessments and rule violations by your tenant.
• Parking & vehicles: No street parking is allowed unless the HOA adopts rules that permit it. You must park in your garage whenever possible, and the garage must be used primarily for vehicle storage. No boats, trailers, RVs, campers, or commercial vehicles may be parked on your lot unless the HOA rules allow it.
• Use restrictions & home businesses: Lots are for residential use only. Home businesses that don't create extra traffic or parking problems may be allowed at the HOA's discretion. No unlawful activity or unreasonable nuisance is permitted. Outdoor fires in firepits or approved fireplaces are okay.
• Architectural review: An Architectural Committee will review and approve all new construction, modifications, and alterations. Detailed architectural guidelines are set separately. You must get approval before making any exterior changes.
• Assessments & fees: Every lot owner pays annual assessments to cover common expenses (maintenance, insurance, utilities, reserves). The HOA can also levy special assessments. Fines for rule violations are up to $100 per day (after the 5th day of the violation). The HOA can suspend access to common facilities for unpaid assessments.
• Subdivision & lot changes: You may not subdivide your lot or create any time-sharing arrangement. The builder (Declarant) has the right to change lot lines, add common areas, and adjust development plans with town approval.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include the full set of architectural guidelines, rules and regulations adopted by the HOA board, or detailed information about specific amenities like a pool or clubhouse. It also does not cover pet restrictions, trash service, or the exact amount of assessments.
