Irving Bordeaux Villas Homeowners Association, Inc.

What Irving Bordeaux Villas Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

Bordeaux Villas is a planned community of single-family attached townhome units in Irving, Texas, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This declaration binds all unit owners and occupants, covering assessments, maintenance, use restrictions, and architectural review. It is a full rulebook for the community, not a partial document.

• What you own & maintain: You own your unit (including its interior and some exterior elements like A/C equipment) and share common property. The association maintains common areas, front/side lawns, exterior building surfaces, and perimeter fencing; you maintain your backyard, interior, and any unit-specific items.
• Assessments & fees: Initial monthly assessment is $170 per unit. The board can levy special assessments up to one-third of annual assessment without member vote; larger ones need 2/3 approval. Buyers (except the declarant) pay a capitalization fee and an insurance fee at purchase. Delinquent assessments accrue late charges, interest up to 18% annually, and can lead to lien foreclosure.
• Leasing & rentals: Units may be rented only in their entirety, with a written lease for an initial term of at least 30 days (unless the board approves shorter). Owners must notify the board within 10 days of lease execution and provide copies of governing documents to tenants. Tenants must comply with all rules.
• Pets: No more than two common household pets (dogs, cats, etc.) per unit. Pets that endanger health or safety may be required to be removed. No commercial breeding or keeping of pets.
• Architectural review: Any exterior modification, addition, or change (including color) requires written approval from the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). The ARC has 60 days to respond; if no response, approval is deemed given. The ARC can deny for aesthetic reasons.
• Parking & vehicles: No overnight street parking. Up to two occupant vehicles may park outside the garage; vehicles must be in driveways, not on grass. No vehicle repairs unless concealed. Garage doors must stay closed except when in use.
• Use restrictions: Units are for residential use only. No temporary structures, no exterior storage buildings, no free-standing flagpoles (except temporary ones for model homes), no reflective window coverings, and no playground equipment without ARC approval (must be in rear, at least 10 feet from side, no taller than 12 feet).
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include specific rules about age restrictions, income limits, or rental caps. It also lacks details on insurance deductibles, specific pet breeds, or exact fine amounts beyond the $25 late charge.
