Kure Beach Town House

What Kure Beach Town House's governing documents say

Kure Beach Town House is a townhome community in Wilmington, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). The declaration establishes rules for lot owners, including maintenance obligations, use restrictions, and assessment requirements.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and townhouse. The association provides exterior maintenance (roofs, gutters, exterior surfaces, landscaping) but not glass, screens, or storm doors. Damage from owner negligence is charged to that owner.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the board, initially capped at $300 per lot (for most lots) and can increase up to 5% yearly without a vote. Special assessments for capital improvements require a 2/3 vote. Unpaid assessments accrue 8% interest and become a lien on the property.
• Leasing & rentals: No specific lease term restrictions are mentioned. Owners may delegate common area use to tenants.
• Architectural review: Any new building, fence, or exterior alteration requires written approval from the board or an architectural committee. Approval is automatic if no response within 30 days.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family townhouse use only, max 2.5 stories. No temporary structures, trailers, or outbuildings as residences. No noxious or offensive activities.
• Party walls: Walls on lot lines are party walls. Repair costs are shared proportionally by users. Disputes go to arbitration.
• Right of first refusal: Before selling, an owner must first offer the lot to other lot owners at the same price as a bona fide offer. Response must be within 20 days; if multiple buyers, auction among them.
