Sunrise Estates Property Owners Association

What Sunrise Estates Property Owners Association's governing documents say

Sunrise Estates is a standard single-family home HOA in Corsicana, TX. The documents here are partial/ancillary — a 2023 amendment, a policy on payments and records, an architectural request form, and a management certificate — and do not contain the full set of community rules. They bind lot owners, but many restrictions (e.g., pet limits, parking) are not included in these excerpts.

• Housing type & lot use: All lots are for single-family detached homes only, site-built, no manufactured homes, shipping container homes, or 'barndominiums' allowed. Minimum floor area is 1,500 square feet (excluding patios, driveways, garages). Homes must have an attached private garage or carport for 2–3 cars.
• Short-term rentals: Short-term rentals (e.g., Airbnb, Vrbo) defined as leases under 12 months are prohibited.
• Architectural review: The Architectural Control Committee (three members appointed by the Board) must approve plans for any building, fence, or alteration. Approval or denial must be in writing within 30 days of a complete submission; if no response within 30 days, approval is deemed given. The committee retains the right to inspect property during construction.
• Fences: Lakefront lots: fences no taller than 4 feet (except around pools/tennis courts). Interior lots: privacy fences up to 6 feet allowed, set back 2 feet from the front of the home and not along the front property line, without obstructing lake or common-area views. All fencing requires committee approval. No barbed wire.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessment: $45 per lot per year (per 2026 Management Certificate). Late fee of $25 after 30 days past due, plus 8% annual interest. A resale certificate/document package fee of $150; transfer fee of $150 per lot per transaction; expedited resale certificate (6 business days) costs $50.
• Records & payment plans: Owners may request association books/records in writing. Copy fees: $0.10 per page; labor $25/hour. Delinquent owners may enter an alternative payment plan of 3–18 months (not required after 30-day cure period). Previous default on a plan makes the owner ineligible for a new plan for 12 months.
• What this document doesn't cover: These excerpts do not include complete rules on pets, parking, landscaping, noise, flags, holiday decorations, rent/lease restrictions beyond short-term ban, or membership voting procedures. They also lack the full architectural guidelines, such as approved paint colors or roofing materials. Refer to the full Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (1988, as amended) for a complete rulebook.
