Honaker Farms

What Honaker Farms's governing documents say

Honaker Farms is a single-family home subdivision in Clayton, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) sets out the rules for the community, including architectural review, maintenance duties, and HOA assessments. It applies to all current and future homeowners in the subdivision.

• What you own & maintain: You own your detached single-family home and lot. You are responsible for maintaining your unit, including the dwelling, driveway, and other improvements, to a community-wide standard. The HOA maintains common areas, including entrance signs, landscaping in public rights-of-way, and storm water drainage systems.
• Architectural review: Before making any exterior changes, such as building, altering, or landscaping, you must get written approval from the Declarant (developer) or, later, the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). The reviewer has broad discretion and may consider aesthetics. If no response within 45 days, approval is deemed given, but it must comply with the Design Guidelines.
• Assessments & fees: The HOA levies annual assessments on all units to cover common expenses. Special assessments may be levied for unexpected costs, and specific assessments can be charged to individual owners for violations or services. The declaration does not state the current amount of the assessment.
• Rules & enforcement: The HOA can adopt and enforce rules about use and conduct, with notice to owners. Violations can result in fines, suspension of voting rights or common area use, and even liens on your property. The HOA can also enter your property to remedy violations or in emergencies.
• Insurance: The HOA carries master insurance on common areas, including property and liability coverage. You are required to carry your own property insurance on your home and improvements. If the HOA's insurance has a deductible and damage is your fault, you may be assessed for it.
• Leasing & rentals: The declaration does not restrict leasing or require HOA approval for rentals, but any lease must include a provision that the tenant is bound by the governing documents. The HOA cannot prohibit leasing or transfers.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include the actual Use Restrictions and Rules (Exhibit C) or the Design Guidelines, which contain specific rules about pets, parking, signs, and other day-to-day matters. It also does not state the current HOA fee amount or any age restrictions.
