Casa De Amigos Condominiums

What Casa De Amigos Condominiums's governing documents say

Casa De Amigos is a condominium community in Scottsdale, AZ originally built as affordable housing. You own your unit's interior and share ownership of the building's common elements, which the association maintains and insures. The declaration sets out rules for pets, leasing, parking, and alterations.

• Pets: Up to two domestic pets are allowed; each dog must weigh 20 lbs or less (service animals excepted). Pets must be leashed (max 6 ft) when outside, and owners must clean up after them. No pet structures visible from outside.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must run at least six months; you cannot lease within the first six months of owning the unit unless the board approves due to hardship. All leases must be in writing and comply with the condo documents; the owner must notify the association of lease start/end and occupant names.
• Parking & vehicles: No commercial vehicles (trucks over one ton, RVs, boats, trailers) may be parked on the property. Only family vehicles (cars, SUVs, motorcycles, small pickups) are allowed. No vehicle repairs (except emergencies) or inoperable vehicles. The association may tow violators at the owner's expense.
• Use & occupancy: Units are for single-family residential use only. Home-based businesses are allowed if not detectable from outside and comply with local laws. No nuisances, no exterior clotheslines, no temporary structures. Window coverings visible from outside must be approved by the board.
• Alterations & improvements: Nonstructural interior changes do not need board approval, but structural changes require written approval and a licensed engineer's certification. Any exterior alterations (including visible changes) must be approved by the board.
• Assessments & fees: Each unit pays an equal share (1/36th) of common expenses. Assessments can increase up to 10% per year plus CPI. A working capital fund equal to 1/6th of the annual assessment is paid at closing. Transfer fees may be set by the board. Delinquent assessments accrue 18% interest and are secured by a lien.
• What this document doesn't cover: The declaration does not specify current assessment amounts, income or rent restrictions (despite the developer's 'affordable housing' name), or details about amenities (pool, spa, etc.). Those may be covered in separate rules or budgets.
