The Courts Condominium

What The Courts Condominium's governing documents say

This is a full Declaration of Condominium for The Courts Condominium in Phoenix, AZ, a 15-unit condominium where you own your individual unit and share ownership of common elements. The document is the complete rulebook for owners, renters, and the association. The association maintains common areas, and each unit pays equal assessments.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior and exterior of your unit, including the roof, doors, and windows. You also maintain the limited common elements allocated to your unit: garage, patio, rear yard, driveway, and entry. The association maintains the front yard, common landscaping, private drives, pool, and utility lines (except those serving only your unit).
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be for at least 90 days (no short-term rentals). You must provide the association with a signed copy of the lease and occupant information at least 10 days before the lease starts. You are responsible for any violations by your tenant or their guests.
• Pets: No more than two dogs per unit, regardless of size or weight. Other house pets are allowed in reasonable numbers. Pets must be leashed (max 6 feet) outside, and owners must clean up after them immediately. The board may adopt further pet restrictions.
• Modifications & architecture: Any exterior modification visible from other units or common areas (including paint color) requires prior written board approval, based on aesthetic harmony. A completed application form must be submitted; if not approved within 45 days, it is deemed disapproved. The board may require a security deposit and insurance. Declarant is exempt during the development period.
• Parking & vehicles: Vehicles may only be parked in your garage or driveway (limited common elements). No parking on drives or common areas without board approval, except for temporary loading/unloading (up to 8 hours). Garage doors must be kept closed when not in use. No vehicle repairs outside the garage except emergencies.
• Signs & antennas: No signs visible from outside the unit without board approval, except a small nameplate (max 6x12 inches). Standard TV antennas and satellite dishes under 1 meter are allowed in rear yards if they comply with architectural rules.
• Home businesses: A home business is allowed if it is not visible or detectable from outside, complies with zoning, involves no more than one non-resident employee, and does not generate excessive traffic or noise. The business must not be a nuisance. Leasing your unit is not considered a business.
