Dutch Built Townhomes

What Dutch Built Townhomes's governing documents say

Dutch Built Townhomes is a planned community of townhomes in Kure Beach, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). Each owner owns a lot and townhome unit, and the HOA maintains common elements and carries master insurance. The community is currently under Declarant control, meaning the builder retains significant authority until the control period ends.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and townhome unit, including interior finishes, fixtures, and appliances. The HOA maintains common elements (e.g., common areas, amenities) and carries property insurance on the exterior of units and common elements. You must insure your unit's interior and contents.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must comply with all governing documents. The declaration does not set a minimum lease term, but the HOA may adopt rules regulating rentals. Time-sharing is prohibited.
• Pets: Only household pets ordinarily kept in homes are allowed. The HOA may regulate the kind and number of pets. Pets must be leashed on common elements, and owners must clean up after them. No commercial breeding.
• Parking & vehicles: No boats, trailers, RVs, or similar items may be stored on common elements unless designated. All vehicles must be operational and currently registered. The HOA may limit the number of passenger vehicles per owner and designate parking areas.
• Architectural review: No structural alterations or construction on common elements or limited common elements without HOA approval. Permanent structures on lots require architectural approval per Article 16. Temporary structures (e.g., tents, sheds) need written permission.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Home-based businesses are allowed only if incidental to residential use and with HOA approval. No nuisances, unlawful activities, or activities that increase insurance rates.
• Party walls: Walls between townhome units are party walls. Adjoining owners share maintenance costs equally. If damaged, any owner who used the wall may restore it, and others who later use it must contribute proportionally.
