What Vista Grande El Lago Condominiums's governing documents say

Vista Grande El Lago is a 12-unit condominium community in Phoenix, AZ. Each owner holds title to their individual unit plus an undivided 1/12 interest in the common areas, which the homeowners' association maintains and insures. This declaration governs how units can be used, rented, and modified, and applies to all owners and residents.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior space of your unit (including windows, doors, and electrical outlets) and an undivided 1/12 interest in the common areas. The association maintains the common areas, parking, and building systems; you are responsible for interior repairs and any damage you or your guests cause to common areas.
• Leasing & rentals: Units may not be rented for transient or hotel purposes, defined as any rental under 20 days or any rental providing hotel-like services (e.g., daily maid service). Leases of 20 days or longer are allowed, provided the lease acknowledges these rules.
• Pets: Only usual household pets (dogs, cats, birds) are allowed, and they require association approval. The board may set rules and can require removal of objectionable pets. No breeding or raising of animals on the property.
• Use restrictions: Units are for single-family residential use only; no business or trade may be conducted. No nuisances, illegal activities, or anything that impairs building integrity or insurance. Occupancy limits: up to 6 persons in a two-bedroom unit, up to 8 in a four-bedroom unit.
• Parking & vehicles: No trailers, campers, commercial vehicles (except standard pickup trucks used for both business and personal use), inoperable autos, boats, or off-road vehicles may be parked on the property unless inside an enclosed garage or carport. Loading/unloading temporary parking is allowed.
• Architectural review: No exterior alterations, fences, awnings, patio covers, screens, or landscaping visible from the street or common area may be made without written approval from the Architectural Control Committee (appointed by the declarant until units are sold, then by the board). Plans must be submitted showing design, materials, and location.
• Assessments & fees: Regular annual assessments are set by the board, initially capped at $600/unit/year, with annual increases limited to 20% without member vote. Special assessments for capital improvements or unanticipated expenses may not exceed 5% of budgeted gross expenses without a 51% member vote. Late payments accrue 10% annual interest and may result in liens or membership rights suspension.
• Signs & antennas: No signs visible to the public without board approval; 'For Sale' or 'For Rent' signs are allowed but must be board-approved as to size and content. No external radio or TV antennas without board consent; no exterior clotheslines or drying of clothes on patios/balconies.
