Reedham Oaks Homeowners Association Inc

What Reedham Oaks Homeowners Association Inc's governing documents say

Reedham Oaks is a single-family home HOA in Raleigh, NC, governed by a declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions. It applies to all lot owners in the subdivision, who automatically become members of the homeowners association. The rules cover property use, architectural control, assessments, and common area rights.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and detached single-family home. The association owns and maintains the common areas (e.g., streets, stormwater ponds, greenways) and may levy assessments for their upkeep.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments start at $120 per lot per year (until the first lot is conveyed) and can increase up to 20% per year without a two-thirds vote. Special assessments require a two-thirds vote of each membership class. Unpaid assessments accrue 10% annual interest and can become a lien on your property.
• Architectural review: Any new structure, fence, wall, or exterior change (including antennas, satellite dishes, solar panels) requires written approval from the Declarant, the Board, or the Architectural Committee. Plans are deemed approved if no decision is made within 30 days of submission.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for residential use only, with one detached single-family home per lot (minimum 1,800 sq ft heated for one-story, 2,000 sq ft for 1.5–2 story). No manufactured homes, trailers, tents, or temporary structures. No commercial activities, no 'for sale' signs (except approved), and no boats, RVs, or trailers parked in common areas or streets (must be screened from view).
• Pets: Dogs, cats, and other household pets are allowed, but not for commercial breeding or keeping. No livestock or poultry.
• Common area & greenway rules: Owners have an easement to use common areas, but the Board can suspend voting and recreational facility use for unpaid assessments or rule infractions (up to 120 days). Greenway areas dedicated to the City of Raleigh have additional restrictions (no tree removal, no structures, no planting) without city consent.
• Leasing & rentals: The declaration does not restrict leasing or rentals. Owners may rent their homes, but tenants must comply with all rules, and owners are responsible for tenant violations.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include the association's bylaws, which govern board elections, meeting procedures, and other operational details. It also does not specify current assessment amounts or any rules about short-term rentals, parking on driveways, or specific architectural design standards beyond setbacks and size.
