Whyman Haciendas

What Whyman Haciendas's governing documents say

Whyman Haciendas is a standard single-family home HOA in Avondale, AZ — you own your lot and house, and the association maintains common areas and enforces rules through covenants that run with the land. These CC&Rs bind all owners, residents, tenants, and guests. The document establishes architectural controls, use restrictions, leasing rules, and assessment obligations.

• Architectural review: Any exterior change visible from neighboring property (including new construction, alterations, landscaping) requires prior written approval from the Architectural Review Committee. Approval is deemed granted if no response within 30 days after complete submission. The committee may charge a fee, require a bond, and consider harmony, aesthetics, and impact on the community.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing for a term of at least 30 days. Before the lease begins, the owner must provide the association with tenant names and contact info. Timesharing or periodic occupancy (under 30 days) is prohibited. For-rent signs are not allowed during the Declarant Control Period; later the board may regulate or continue the ban.
• Pets: A reasonable number of domestic pets (house or yard) are allowed, but no commercial breeding. Dogs must be leashed (max 6 ft) when off the owner's lot and must not enter other lots. Pet enclosures must not be visible from neighboring property. The board may determine if a pet is a nuisance or too many.
• Parking & vehicles: No trucks, RVs, boats, or trailers may be parked visible from neighboring property except for temporary loading/unloading (max 72 consecutive hours in any 7-day period) on the concrete driveway. Motor vehicles must be parked in the garage or driveway; street parking is limited. Inoperable vehicles and repairs visible from neighboring property are prohibited.
• Use restrictions & businesses: Lots are for residential use only. Home-based businesses are allowed if not detectable from outside, comply with zoning, involve no customer visits, and are not a nuisance. Garages cannot be converted to living space if it causes street parking. Outdoor clotheslines, antennas, and high-intensity lighting are restricted.
• Signs: No signs visible from neighboring property without approval, except: one professional 'For Sale' sign (owner may place subject to design guidelines), political signs (size/number may be regulated), and residence identification signs approved by the Architectural Review Committee. 'For Rent' signs are prohibited during Declarant Control Period.
• Assessments: Annual assessments are levied equally per lot based on the board's budget. Special assessments require approval by one-half of owner votes. Assessments become a lien on the lot if unpaid, and the association may collect interest, late fees, and attorney's costs. Enforcement assessments may be levied for violations.
