What Baywood Forest Homeowners's governing documents say

Baywood Forest is a single-family home HOA in Knightdale, NC, governed by a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs). This document sets the rules for property use, maintenance assessments, and architectural control, and it applies to all lot owners in the subdivision.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and single-family home. The association maintains common open space and may charge fees for its use. You're responsible for maintaining your lot, including any utility easements on it.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the Board, with a maximum increase of 10% per year without member vote. Special assessments for capital improvements require a two-thirds vote. Unpaid assessments accrue 8% annual interest and become a lien on your property.
• Architectural review: Any exterior structure or change, including fences, walls, and paint colors, must be approved in writing by the Board or architectural committee. If no decision is made within 30 days, approval is considered denied.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Minimum heated areas apply (800 sq ft for single-story, 900 sq ft for split-level, etc.). No temporary residences, trailers, or outbuildings used as homes. Boats and recreational vehicles must be parked in designated areas.
• Pets: No animals, livestock, or poultry are allowed, except dogs, cats, or other household pets kept for non-commercial purposes.
• Leasing & rentals: The document does not restrict leasing or rentals, but owners may delegate their common area use rights to tenants.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is the declaration only; it doesn't include the association's bylaws, rules and regulations, or any current fee schedule. It also doesn't specify any age restrictions or rental caps.
