Marina Linda

What Marina Linda's governing documents say

Marina Linda is a condominium community in Scottsdale, Arizona with 58 units across 8 buildings. You own your individual unit interior and hold an undivided 1/58th share of all common elements (grounds, parking, recreation facilities, building structure). The association maintains the common elements, collects per-unit assessments, and enforces use and design rules.

• What you own & maintain: You own your apartment's interior (walls, floors, ceilings, windows, doors, and built-in appliances like dishwashers and ranges) plus exclusive use of an adjoining garage, patio, and/or balcony. The association maintains all common elements and building exterior; you're responsible for your unit's interior, HVAC, plumbing, electrical systems, and exclusive-use areas. You pay for any damage to common elements caused by your negligence or guests.
• Leasing & rentals: You may rent your entire apartment to a single family; partial rentals and time-share arrangements are prohibited.
• Pets: A reasonable number of domestic house pets are allowed, provided they don't create excessive noise, odor, or become a nuisance or safety issue. The board has sole discretion to determine what constitutes a 'generally recognized house pet' and a reasonable number.
• Architectural review & alterations: Any exterior changes visible from neighboring property—additions, alterations, antennas, clotheslines, signs—require architectural committee approval and must be 'aesthetically pleasing.' Inside your unit, nonstructural changes are permitted without approval but you're liable for any damage to common areas. Structural changes require prior written approval from an Arizona-licensed architect/engineer.
• Parking & vehicles: No mobile homes, motor homes, recreational vehicles, boats, trailers, trucks, campers, tents, or inoperable/abandoned vehicles are allowed on the property.
• Use restrictions: Apartments are for single-family residential use only—no businesses, trades, or occupations (though you may maintain personal business records and handle calls). No nuisances, excessive noise, or exterior sound devices except for security/emergency use. Trash must be in approved covered containers hidden from view. No mineral extraction, mineral exploration, or conditions that breed disease or insects.
• Assessments & liens: The association levies annual per-unit assessments to cover common expenses and may impose special or emergency assessments. Unpaid assessments become a lien on your apartment; the association may pursue collection by suit or foreclosure.
• Party walls: Walls shared with neighbors belong to both owners. If you damage a party wall through your own actions, you must repair it at your expense; damage from other causes (including wear and tear) is the association's responsibility. Disputes go to the board or American Arbitration Association.
