What Vida Del Sol Estates's governing documents say

Vida Del Sol Estates (Unit 1) is a single-family home community in Phoenix, AZ. This Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) binds all lot owners and sets rules for the neighborhood. It covers what you own and maintain, architectural approvals, parking, pets (including horses), assessments, and use restrictions—designed to protect property values and quality of life.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and must maintain it, including the private driveway, exterior surfaces, and landscaping. The homeowner association maintains the common areas (like entrance landscaping and storm water tracts) using regular assessments.
• Architectural review: Before building or altering any structure (including fences, sheds, or additions), you must get written approval from the board or architectural committee. Plans submitted are deemed approved if not acted on within 30 days.
• Parking & vehicles: Boats, trailers, RVs, and campers must be stored in an enclosed garage or behind the house. No street parking allowed. Driveways must be finished with crushed rock, pavement, or concrete. Junk vehicles are prohibited.
• Assessments & fees: Each owner pays a uniform quarterly assessment (set annually) plus a one-time initial contribution equal to 2/3 of the regular quarterly assessment at closing. A transfer fee, set by the board, is due when you buy. Delinquent assessments accrue 18% interest and can become a lien.
• Pets & livestock: You may keep up to three horses per lot in the designated livestock area. Dogs, cats, and other household pets are allowed, but no commercial breeding or raising of animals. Livestock facilities must be kept clean and not be a nuisance.
• Leasing & rentals: If you lease your lot, you (the owner) are responsible for ensuring the tenant follows all rules. There is no mention of a minimum lease term.
• Fences & structures: Fences in dwelling/livestock areas can be up to 6 feet tall; front-yard fences max 3 feet (unless design allows higher). Pool fences must be 6 feet with self-closing gates. Setbacks require front yard depth 25-50 feet and side yards 20 feet.
• Use restrictions: Each lot is for single-family residential use only. No business or commercial activity allowed. Temporary structures, boats, or mobile homes as residences are prohibited. Minimum dwelling size is 924 sq ft.
