What Bella Vista Owners Association Inc's governing documents say
Bella Vista is a single-family home HOA in Raleigh, NC. This declaration sets out the rules and obligations for all lot owners, covering assessments, architectural control, and use restrictions. It's the full rulebook for the community.
- What you own & maintain: You own your lot and home; the association maintains common elements like the private road, entry features, stormwater systems, and open space, funded by your assessments.
- Assessments & fees: Annual assessments start at $1,080 and can rise up to 12% or CPI each year without a vote. Special assessments up to $500 per lot may be levied for refurbishment or capital improvements, and a one-time $500 working capital fee is due at initial sale.
- Architectural review: Any exterior changes—fences, landscaping, structures, even paint colors—need written approval from the Architectural Committee before starting. Approval is based on harmony with the neighborhood, and the committee has broad discretion.
- Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. No businesses are allowed unless approved by the board and conducted entirely inside the home or garage. No obnoxious or offensive activities are permitted.
- Pets: Dogs, cats, pet birds, and other household pets are allowed, but not for commercial purposes. They must be controlled and not a nuisance, and owners must clean up after them. Kennels or runs need architectural approval.
- Parking & vehicles: Boats, trailers, campers, motorhomes, trucks, and tractors cannot be parked on lots, common areas, or streets unless inside an enclosed garage. Vehicles with advertising must be parked in a garage.
- Signs: No signs are allowed on lots or common areas except as permitted by the association or required by law. 'For Sale' or 'For Rent' signs are allowed only in approved locations.
- Leasing & rentals: The declaration does not restrict leasing or rentals, but owners may delegate their common element use rights to tenants. Tenants must follow the same rules.
