Carefree Casas

What Carefree Casas's governing documents say

Carefree Casas is a 55-and-older age-restricted condominium community in Phoenix, Arizona (known as a horizontal property regime under Arizona law). The community strictly enforces age restrictions—at least one resident per unit must be 55 or older, with exceptions for guests and family members. A 2015 amendment removed prior rules requiring association approval for unit sales and rentals.

• Age restriction (55+): At least one person per unit must be 55 or older; no one under 18 except guests (up to 30 days per year), prior owners, and surviving spouses of deceased residents or those placed in elder care. Until 80% of units are occupied by 55+ residents, all vacant or for-sale units must be reserved for 55+ occupants.
• What you own: You own your individual unit in a condominium (horizontal property regime). The Council of Co-Owners governs the community.
• Sales and rental approval (removed): A 2015 amendment deleted prior rules that gave the association a right of first refusal on sales and required written approval for rentals—these restrictions no longer apply.
• Enforcement: The association enforces age restrictions via injunctions, fines, suspension of voting rights, suspension of recreation facility access, and assessment of legal costs and attorney fees.
• What this document doesn't cover: Specific assessment amounts, pet policies, lease-term limits, community amenities, parking rules, and architectural review requirements are not addressed in this excerpt.
