Highcroft Estates Homeowners Association

What Highcroft Estates Homeowners Association's governing documents say

Highcroft Estates is a standard single-family home HOA in Arlington, TX. You own your lot and house; the association manages common areas like private streets and may enforce uniform rules. This declaration explains what you can and cannot do on your property.

• Single-family residential use: Lots are for private single-family residential use only. Limited home businesses are allowed if they meet strict criteria (no customers visiting, no signs, no employees outside residents, etc.).
• Pets: No more than three cats or dogs in total per lot. No exotic animals, farm animals, or breeding. Pets must be leashed outside, waste removed, and registered as required by law.
• Signs & flags: Most signs require ACC approval, but one for-sale sign (max 5 sq ft per side, under 4 ft tall) and political signs (90 days before election, removed within 10 days after) are allowed. For-lease/for-rent signs are prohibited. Flags: US flag, Texas flag, military, or college flag on a flagpole up to 5 ft affixed to the house (no approval) or a freestanding flagpole up to 20 ft (must be approved).
• Parking & vehicles: No boats, trailers, campers, inoperable vehicles, or trucks (other than pickups) may be visible from the street unless stored in an enclosed garage or screened. No repair work outside. No mobile homes, travel trailers, or RVs used as residences.
• Architectural review: Almost all exterior changes (construction, fences, sheds, pools, antennas, etc.) require prior approval from the Architectural Control Committee (ACC). Permanent basketball goals must be at least 10 ft from the curb; portable goals must be stored in rear or garage when not in use.
• Maintenance obligations: Owners must keep their lot and improvements in good condition (mowing, watering, weeding, painting, repairs). The Board may step in and charge the owner if maintenance is not performed.
• Assessments: The Association may levy regular, special, and individual assessments. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the lot. Specific fee amounts are not in this declaration.
• What this document doesn't cover: Lease restrictions (Section 3.2 exists but full text not provided – check actual lease rules). No specific assessment dollar amounts, no amenity list, and no detailed rules about pool or other facilities.
