Harlowe Point Homeowners Association Inc

What Harlowe Point Homeowners Association Inc's governing documents say

Harlowe Point is a new single-family home community in Durham, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This declaration sets out the rules and obligations for all current and future homeowners, covering everything from property use and maintenance to architectural approvals and assessments. It is a standard HOA rulebook for a planned residential subdivision.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the house on it. The HOA owns and maintains the common areas (like streets, open space, and any amenities), and you pay assessments to cover those costs.
• Assessments & fees: The HOA levies annual assessments on every lot to pay for common expenses. The exact amount isn't in this excerpt, but it can change and may increase if the community expands.
• Architectural review: Any exterior changes to your property—like fences, decks, landscaping, or paint colors—must be approved in advance by the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) or the Declarant. The rules are strict and cover many types of improvements.
• Leasing & rentals: The document doesn't specify a minimum lease term or rental restrictions in this excerpt, but it does say that owners who lease their homes assign their common-area use rights to their tenants. Check the full declaration for any rental rules.
• Pets: This excerpt doesn't mention pet limits or restrictions. Look for a separate section on pets in the full declaration.
• Use of common areas: All owners have a right to use the common areas, but the HOA can make rules about how they're used, charge fees for amenities, and suspend your access if you violate the rules or owe money.
• Declarant control & development: The builder (Lennar) controls the HOA during the development period (until 2030 or later) and can annex new land, change the development plan, and make rules without homeowner approval. This means the community may grow and change over time.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt is only the first part of the declaration. It doesn't include the full rules on assessments, architectural guidelines, or other restrictions. You'll need to read the complete document for all the details.
