Wahinda Casitas

What Wahinda Casitas's governing documents say

Wahinda Casitas is a 28-unit condominium (horizontal property regime) in Fountain Hills, AZ. You own your unit's interior space plus a 1/28th undivided interest in the common and limited common elements (including two covered parking spaces per unit). The association maintains exteriors, landscaping, roofs, and common areas; you maintain the inside of your unit.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior of your unit (walls, floors, fixtures) and an undivided 1/28th interest in the common elements. The association maintains all common elements: landscaping, building exteriors, roofs, covered parking, and limited common elements serving your building. You are responsible for interior maintenance and repair of fixtures within your unit.
• Assessments: Annual assessments cover maintenance of common elements, reserves, and recreational facilities. The initial maximum annual assessment was $1,000 per unit; the board can increase it up to 10% per year without a member vote. Any larger increase or special assessment requires a majority vote of members (over 50% of those present at a meeting with a quorum). Delinquent assessments accrue 10% annual interest and become a lien on your unit.
• Pets: Commonly accepted household pets are allowed, but no commercial breeding or keeping of animals. Pets must be leashed or otherwise restrained outside your unit, and you must clean up droppings and repair any damage they cause. No exotic animals or livestock.
• Architectural review: Any improvement, alteration, or repainting visible from outside requires prior written approval from the association. Submit plans and specifications; if the association does not approve or disapprove within 30 days, approval is deemed given. No changes that increase your unit's square footage beyond the original are allowed.
• Parking & vehicles: Two covered parking spaces are assigned per unit. Only owners, guests, family, or tenants may park in driveways or private streets. Recreational or commercial vehicles may not be parked anywhere on the premises. All vehicles must be parked in designated areas.
• Use restrictions: Units are limited to single-family residential use. No business, professional, commercial, religious, or institutional purposes. Temporary structures, trailers, tents, or outbuildings are not allowed as residences. No sign larger than 16" x 24" for sale/rent (displayed only from inside a window). Trash must be in screened containers; no burning. All radio/TV antennas must be invisible from outside.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not specify a minimum lease term, age restrictions, affordability requirements, or detailed rules about renting. It establishes a right of first refusal for the association on the sale of a unit (not leases). For complete rules, refer to the association's bylaws, rules and regulations, and any separate rental policies.
