What Sagewood Community Association Inc's governing documents say
Sagewood is a planned community of single-family homes in Durham, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This declaration sets the rules for all owners, residents, and guests, covering property use, maintenance, and architectural standards.
- Who's in charge: The Sagewood Community Association, Inc. enforces the rules and maintains common areas. The developer (Forestar) retains significant control—including architectural approval and rule changes—until the community is fully built out.
- Occupancy & family rules: Each lot must be occupied by a single family unit: people related by blood, marriage, adoption, or guardianship, or up to three unrelated people living together as a household.
- Leasing & rentals: The HOA can require a minimum lease term of six months and otherwise regulate rentals, but cannot prohibit leasing or require approval to lease.
- Architectural review: Any exterior changes—fences, landscaping, pools, even repainting (unless matching the original color)—require prior written approval from the developer or the architectural review committee. Decisions are subjective and based on aesthetics.
- Parking & vehicles: Only licensed, operative passenger cars, station wagons, pickup trucks, and vans may be regularly parked in driveways. No regular parking on roadways; recreational vehicles must be screened from view; vehicles cannot be used as dwellings.
- Pets & outdoor items: Boats, campers, antennas, clotheslines, and pet enclosures must be screened from view. No above-ground pools; in-ground pools need approval.
- Maintenance responsibilities: The association maintains common areas, entry features, streets, and stormwater systems, plus exterior landscaping on each lot (except fenced areas). Owners maintain their own structures, driveways, and any landscaping they install.
- Assessments & fees: All owners pay assessments to fund common expenses. The association can levy special assessments and charge interest (12% per year) on unpaid maintenance costs.
