What Monteloma's governing documents say

Monteloma is a single-family home subdivision in Scottsdale, AZ. You own your lot and house, and the homeowners' association (HOA) maintains common areas like tracts A through G. The HOA enforces rules, collects assessments, and manages architectural review. This document is the full declaration of covenants that runs with the land.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the single-family home on it. Minimum house size is 3,290 square feet (exclusive of garage), single story, no taller than 24 feet. You must maintain the exterior, landscaping, and keep the property in good repair. The HOA maintains common areas and areas of association responsibility.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be for 30 days or longer. No transient or hotel use. Provide a copy of the lease to the HOA, include a clause that tenants must follow the rules. Only entire lots may be rented; no leasing of individual rooms.
• Architectural review: An Architectural Committee (3 or 5 members appointed by the board) must approve any exterior changes, including buildings, fences, paint colors, landscaping, antennas, and play structures. Submit plans; if no response in 45 days, it's deemed approved.

Also a transfer fee (set by board) and a capital reserve fee equal to 1/6 of the annual assessment for new buyers (not the first buyer).
