Casa Requena

What Casa Requena's governing documents say

Casa Requena is a condominium in Phoenix, AZ — you own an individual unit (apartment) plus an undivided interest in the common elements, maintained by the homeowners association funded by per-unit assessments. The declaration governs use, leasing, pets, maintenance, and alterations. This document is the full rulebook for owners and occupants.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior surfaces of your unit; the association maintains the exterior, common elements, and structural parts. Unit owners are responsible for interior decorating, fixtures (e.g., dishwasher, water heater), and glass doors/windows. No exterior paint or changes without board approval.
• Leasing & rentals: Only entire units may be leased. Leases must be in writing and subject to this declaration. Transient or hotel rentals (short-term) are prohibited, except a lender in possession after foreclosure may lease transiently.
• Pets: Household pets are allowed, but the board may limit the number and kinds of pets and otherwise regulate them. No specific pet limit is stated in this declaration.
• Use & occupancy: Units are for single-family residential use only. No business activities, signs (except approved 'for sale/rent'), or nuisances. No division of units. Rubbish, noise, and activities that increase insurance premiums are prohibited.
• Architectural review & alterations: Nonstructural interior changes do not require board approval. Structural additions or alterations need a licensed architect/engineer certification and board approval. Any change visible from outside the unit requires board approval to ensure aesthetic harmony.
• Parking: Each unit has exclusive use of a single parking space, assigned initially by declarant and later by the board. Use is subject to board rules.
• Assessments & fees: Regular assessments are based on each unit's 0.00925925% undivided interest in common elements (same for all 108 units). Initial purchasers pay two months' assessment as working capital. Late payments accrue interest and can lead to lien foreclosure. Special assessments may be levied for unanticipated costs or enforcement.
• What this document doesn't cover: The declaration does not specify a minimum lease term (beyond banning transient rentals), a maximum number of pets, or age restrictions. Specific rules and pet limits may be in board-adopted regulations approved by majority of owners.
