Weslyn

What Weslyn's governing documents say

Weslyn is a single-family home community in Raleigh, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This declaration sets out the rules and obligations for all owners, including assessments, maintenance duties, and architectural controls. It also covers leasing, pets, and other use restrictions.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the home on it, and you're responsible for all maintenance on your lot, including lawn care, exterior repairs, and painting. The association maintains common areas, entry features, open spaces, and stormwater control measures.
• Assessments & fees: The HOA levies annual general assessments, and can also levy special assessments (with 2/3 owner approval) and specific assessments for certain costs. There's a one-time $100 initiation fee on the first sale of each lot after a certificate of occupancy is issued. Unpaid assessments can become a lien on your property.
• Architectural review: Any exterior construction, alteration, or addition—including landscaping changes, exterior color changes, and even some interior changes visible from outside—requires approval from the Architectural Control Committee (ACC). Interior remodeling and repainting doors/shutters to the original color don't need approval.
• Leasing & rentals: You must notify the association before selling or leasing your lot, and provide the name of the buyer/tenant. The declaration doesn't set a minimum lease term, but you must follow the notice requirement.
• Pets & animals: The declaration includes a section on animals and pets, but the excerpt doesn't specify limits or restrictions. Check the full document for details.
• Vehicles & parking: There are rules about vehicles and parking, but the excerpt doesn't detail them. Check the full document for specifics.
• Use restrictions: The community is residential only. There are rules about signs, nuisances, unsightly conditions, antennas, tree removal, drainage, fences, and more. The excerpt doesn't provide specifics, so refer to the full declaration.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is an excerpt from the full declaration, so it doesn't include the complete rules on pets, parking, signs, and other use restrictions. It also doesn't include the bylaws or any separate rules and regulations.
