Arbor Pointe

What Arbor Pointe's governing documents say

Arbor Pointe is a townhome community in Durham, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This document set includes the HOA's articles of incorporation and the declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) that bind all property owners. It explains what owners are responsible for, how the association operates, and the rules for living in the community.

• What you own & maintain: You own your townhome unit (lot plus dwelling) and share ownership of common areas. The association handles exterior and structural maintenance of units, including roofs, walls, and foundations, but not glass surfaces or interior items.
• Assessments & fees: All owners pay annual and special assessments. Initial assessments are capped at $100 per month, with increases limited to 10% per year for the first two years or until developer control ends. Unpaid assessments accrue 18% annual interest and can become a lien on your property.
• Architectural review: Any exterior modifications, additions, or alterations require approval from the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). Interior remodeling and repainting in original colors do not need approval.
• Parking & vehicles: Each unit includes two parking spaces. Guest parking is for temporary use only; regular or permanent storage of vehicles (including boats) in guest areas requires association permission.
• Pets: Dogs, cats, and other household pets are allowed, but they cannot be kept for commercial purposes. No livestock or poultry is permitted.
• Insurance: The association carries blanket insurance on common areas and liability coverage. Each owner must also carry their own casualty insurance on their unit and provide proof to the association. Renters must have a renter's policy with at least $300,000 liability coverage.
• Leasing & rentals: Owners may rent their units, but tenants must follow the same rules. The declaration does not specify a minimum lease term, but tenants have rights to use common areas.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include the full bylaws, specific architectural guidelines, or any rules about age restrictions, rental caps, or other operational details that may be in separate documents.
