What 5335 Bent Tree Forest Tree Forest Drive Condominiums Homeowner Association Inc.'s governing documents say

This is a partial, ancillary document for 5335 Bent Tree Forest Drive Condominiums, a condominium community in Dallas, TX. It amends the association's recorded dedicatory instruments to add two specific policies: leasing rules and a covenant enforcement/fining policy. It is not a full rulebook; it only covers these two areas.

• Leasing & rentals: Units may be leased only in their entirety, for a term of at least one year and no more than two years. Short-term rentals (under 31 days) and transient tenants are prohibited, and owners cannot list units on Airbnb, VRBO, or similar sites. No more than 30% of units may be leased at any one time, and new owners must wait 12 months after purchase before leasing (with hardship exceptions).
• Tenant screening & lease approval: Before leasing, owners must submit a lease application, credit report, criminal background report, proof of identity/employment eligibility, and income verification for each adult occupant. Lessees must have verifiable gross monthly income of at least three times the rent, be employed or full-time students, have a satisfactory credit rating for two years, and not be in bankruptcy or have unsatisfied judgments. The board may approve or reject the lease within 14 days of receiving all required information.
• Occupancy limits: Occupancy cannot exceed the maximum allowed by Dallas or Texas law, but in no case more than two people per bedroom.
• Fines & enforcement: The association can fine owners for violations: $25 for the first uncured violation, up to $50 every 15 days if not corrected within 30 days, and up to $500 for a third fine. Failure to comply with the leasing rules can result in an initial fine of up to $1,500 per violation. Fines are charged to the owner and the unit.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document only covers leasing rules and the fining policy. It does not include the full declaration, bylaws, or other rules about pets, parking, architectural changes, or assessments. Those are in other recorded documents.
