Royal Palms Townhomes

What Royal Palms Townhomes's governing documents say

Royal Palms Townhomes is an attached townhome community in Scottsdale, AZ governed by an homeowners' association (HOA). The CC&Rs apply to all owners, residents, and tenants. Key rules cover leasing, pets, exterior changes, noise, parking, and use of common areas.

• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing with a copy provided to the association, and no lease may be for a term shorter than 30 days. Short-term and vacation rentals are effectively prohibited.
• Pets: Only a reasonable number of common household pets as determined by the board are allowed. Pets must be leashed or fenced, droppings must be removed immediately, and pet housing structures must not be visible from neighboring property.
• Design review & exterior changes: Any exterior alteration – including construction, painting, landscaping, or adding structures like fences, satellite dishes, or play equipment – requires prior written approval from the Design Review Committee.
• Noise & nuisances: Loud music, noise, or vibrations that disturb neighbors are prohibited. No exterior speakers or sound devices (except security) are allowed without board approval. Odors, water leaks, and normal construction noise are acknowledged as part of attached living.
• Parking & vehicles: Large vehicles (trucks, trailers, campers, boats) and parking are regulated by Articles 4.26–4.29. Specific rules are in those sections but include restrictions on where and how vehicles may be parked.
• Signs: Signs visible from neighboring property are generally prohibited. Exceptions include one small identification sign, political signs (displayed 45 days before to 7 days after election), and approved for-sale or construction signs. 'For Lease' or 'For Rent' signs are never allowed.
• Trash & storage: Trash must be kept in approved covered containers stored out of sight except on collection days. Outdoor clotheslines and machinery/equipment visible from neighboring property are prohibited without approval.
• Assessments & fees: Owners pay annual assessments, special assessments, and a working capital fee upon purchase. A transfer/resale disclosure fee may also apply. Delinquent assessments create a lien on the lot.
