What Ganyard Farm Property Owners Association Inc's governing documents say
Ganyard Towns is a planned community of about 102 attached townhomes in Durham, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This declaration binds all owners, residents, and tenants, and covers everything from maintenance responsibilities to use restrictions. If you're buying, renting, or living here, these rules will shape daily life.
- What you own & maintain: You own your townhome's interior and are responsible for its upkeep, including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, windows, and entry doors. The association maintains common areas and the exterior of your home (roof, siding, gutters), but you pay for damage caused by your negligence.
- Leasing & rentals: You may rent your entire townhome, but leases must be at least 6 months and in writing, and you must notify the association with tenant details. You remain responsible for assessments and rule compliance even if the tenant agrees otherwise.
- Pets: You can keep up to 3 household pets (like dogs or cats), but no breeding or commercial use. The board can impose stricter rules, require leashing in common areas, and order removal of any pet deemed a nuisance.
- Parking & vehicles: No boats, trailers, RVs, campers, or commercial vehicles may be parked on streets, driveways, or common areas. Inoperable or junked vehicles are also banned, and vehicle repairs on driveways are prohibited except in emergencies.
- Signs, flags & exterior appearance: No signs (including political signs) may be displayed outside or visible from outside your home, except one small 'for sale' sign in a window. Flags (including U.S. and NC flags) are prohibited unless approved by the architectural committee. No outdoor antennas, satellite dishes, clotheslines, or above-ground pools are allowed.
- Architectural review: Any exterior changes—like fences, antennas, or other improvements—require advance written approval from the Architectural Control Committee. This includes rear-yard fences, which must be approved before installation.
- Use of your home: Your townhome must be used as a single-family residence only. Home businesses are allowed only if they don't disturb neighbors or cause excessive traffic, and the board has sole discretion to approve or reject them.
- What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt doesn't include specific fee amounts, assessment rates, or the full architectural guidelines. It also doesn't cover the association's bylaws or any rules adopted separately by the board.
