Arthaus Condominium

What Arthaus Condominium's governing documents say

Arthaus Condominium is a condominium community in Phoenix, AZ — you own your individual unit and share ownership of the building's common elements. The association maintains the common areas and carries master insurance, funded by per-unit assessments. The declaration sets rules for use, occupancy, maintenance, leasing, pets, parking, and alterations.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior of your unit (from unfinished surfaces inward), including finished surfaces, interior partitions, and fixtures that serve only your unit. The association maintains common elements (e.g., exterior walls, structural slabs, common areas) and limited common elements like windows, doors, patios, balconies, and parking spaces allocated to your unit.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be for an initial term of at least six months. No leasing of less than the entire unit. Subleasing and assignment of leases are prohibited. Owners must provide the association with lease details and a copy of the governing documents to the tenant. Owners remain liable for tenant violations.
• Pets: You may keep up to two dogs, two cats, or one of each as household pets. No other animals, birds, reptiles, or livestock are allowed. Pets must not be a nuisance; dogs must be leashed on common elements. The board can require removal of a pet that is dangerous or a nuisance.
• Parking & vehicles: Each unit is allocated one specific parking space as a limited common element. Only authorized vehicles (passenger cars, SUVs, vans under 10 people, motorcycles, pickup trucks under 1 ton, under 7 feet tall) may be parked in designated spaces. No recreational vehicles, boats, trailers, or vehicle repairs on the property.
• Improvements & alterations: You may alter your unit as long as you don't impair structural integrity or mechanical systems. Alterations visible from the exterior require board approval. The board may require plans, insurance, deposits, and a non-refundable review fee. Common element alterations require board approval.
• Use & occupancy: Units are for residential use only. Limited home businesses are allowed if not visible or detectable from outside, no customers come to the unit, and it's consistent with residential character. No nuisances, illegal activity, or offensive conduct are permitted.
• Assessments & fees: The association levies regular assessments, special assessments, and enforcement assessments. There is also a transfer fee detailed in the declaration. The board prepares a budget, and reserves are required. Nonpayment can result in liens and enforcement.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is a declaration of condominium — it does not include the full bylaws, current rules and regulations, or specific assessment amounts. Those are separate documents. The text is also truncated and OCR-noisy; some details may be incomplete.
