What Taylo's governing documents say
Taylor Estates is a planned community of townhomes in Durham, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This declaration applies to all lot owners, who automatically become members of the association. It sets out rules on property use, maintenance responsibilities, and assessments.
- What you own & maintain: You own your townhome and lot, but the association maintains common areas, exterior surfaces (including painting and gutters), and some landscaping. You are responsible for interior repairs and any improvements you make, subject to approval.
- Leasing & rentals: Leases must be for at least 30 days, and any lease must include a provision that it is subject to the declaration and association rules. A violation of the rules by a tenant is a default under the lease.
- Pets: No livestock or poultry is allowed. You may keep no more than two domestic dogs or cats, and they must be kept in compliance with local laws and any association rules.
- Architectural review: Before making any exterior changes—such as fences, walls, or other structures—you must get written approval from the association or architectural committee. The association can require you to maintain approved improvements at your own cost.
- Assessments & fees: The association levies annual assessments to cover common expenses, and it may also impose special assessments for capital improvements with a two-thirds vote of members. Assessments are a lien on your property if unpaid, and the association can foreclose.
- Use restrictions: No business or commercial activity is allowed on lots, except for home offices that don't create traffic or noise. Garages cannot be converted into living space. Signs are limited—for-sale signs must be 12 inches or smaller, and yard sale signs can only be displayed for 72 hours per month.
- Party walls & shared structures: Party walls between townhomes are shared, and each owner must contribute to their maintenance and repair. If you cause damage to a party wall, you are responsible for the cost of repair.
- What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not specify the exact amount of annual assessments, the number of bedrooms, or any age restrictions. It also doesn't detail the association's rules on parking or amenities beyond general common area use.
