Thornton Place Townhome Association

What Thornton Place Townhome Association's governing documents say

Thornton Place is a planned community of attached single-family townhomes in Raleigh, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). The rules bind all lot owners, and the association maintains common areas and certain exterior elements. This document is the full declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) for the community.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the townhome unit. The association maintains common areas, landscaping, and the exterior of units (painting, roofs, gutters, sidewalks, stoops, parking areas), but not glass surfaces, fences, or damage caused by owners.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the board, with a maximum of $960 per year for owner-occupied lots (as of 2005, adjusted thereafter). Special assessments may be levied for capital improvements. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the property and accrue interest at 18% per year.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases are allowed, but if a unit is leased, the owner's voting rights are limited to 49% on any association matter. No minimum lease term is stated in this document.
• Pets & animals: The declaration includes a section on animals, but the specific rules (e.g., number or type of pets) are not detailed in this excerpt.
• Parking & vehicles: There is a section on parking, but specific rules (e.g., assigned spaces, guest parking) are not detailed in this excerpt.
• Architectural review: Any exterior changes or improvements to your lot or unit require prior written approval from the association. The association may also maintain certain yard improvements if approved.
• Renter protections: Tenants have the right to use common areas, but the declaration does not include specific renter protections beyond that.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt is truncated and does not include full details on use restrictions, fines, insurance, or architectural control procedures. Some sections are only listed in the table of contents.
