Villages of Woodland Spr HOA

What Villages of Woodland Spr HOA's governing documents say

This is not an HOA rulebook. It is an ancillary restrictive covenant and agreement filed between the original builder (Sutter Homes, Inc. d/b/a McBee Homes) and the first owner of a specific lot in Villages of Woodland Spr. in Keller/Fort Worth, Texas. It binds that owner and runs with the land, so future owners should know it governs construction-defect claims, warranties, and mold disputes — not day-to-day community rules.

• Dispute resolution: mediation & arbitration: Any construction-related dispute between the owner and builder (defects, warranties, personal injury, property damage) must first go to mediation and then to binding arbitration, not court. The arbitrator can award fees and expenses.
• Warranties: The builder disclaims all implied warranties, including habitability and good workmanship, to the fullest extent the law allows; if the law does not permit the disclaimer, implied warranties are limited to two years from the date of conveyance. Only the builder's separate written limited express warranty applies.
• Mold and biological impurities: The owner releases the builder from liability for mold, mildew, fungus, spores, chemicals, and related property damage, personal injury, or health effects. The owner is expected to maintain the home to reduce mold risk, such as fixing leaks and ventilating.
• Construction defect law: The owner acknowledges that the Texas Residential Construction Liability Act (RCLA) applies to construction-defect claims, and that a warranty-service request is not the same as an RCLA notice. The owner also acknowledges certain consumer-protection rights under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
• Runs with the land: This agreement is filed in the real property records and is stated to run with the land, meaning future owners of this lot are bound by its arbitration, warranty waiver, and mold release provisions.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not contain HOA rules on assessments, pets, leasing, parking, architectural review, or common-area maintenance. Those would be in the community's actual declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions, if any.
