The House Residential Condominium Association

What The House Residential Condominium Association's governing documents say

This is a set of governing documents for The House, a residential condominium in Dallas, Texas, with a master association (Block J Master Condominium Association) and a residential association (The House Residential Condominium Association). The documents include the association's bylaws and a supplement to the dedicatory instrument manual, which primarily updates insurance policy guidelines. This is for unit owners and prospective buyers in this condominium community.

• What you own & maintain: You own your unit and share ownership of common elements, which the association maintains and insures. The association carries property and liability insurance on common elements, and unit owners are insured persons under the policy for liability arising from ownership of common elements.
• Insurance & damage repair: If the cost to repair damage to a residence or common element is less than the insurance deductible, the party at fault pays the repair cost. The association may assess the deductible and any excess expenses to the unit owner responsible for the damage.
• Board & governance: The association is governed by a three-person board of directors elected annually by unit owners. The board has broad powers to manage the association, adopt rules, and enforce the governing documents.
• Meetings & voting: An annual meeting is held in October. A quorum is one-third of units. Most decisions require a majority of votes cast, but amendments to the bylaws require approval by a majority of votes present at a meeting with a quorum, and certain amendments require mortgagee approval.
• Rules & enforcement: The board can adopt and amend rules with at least 10 days' notice to owners. Violations can result in fines, self-help abatement, or court action, but the board must give notice and an opportunity for a hearing before imposing fines.
• Owner obligations: Owners must provide contact information to the association, notify the association of sales at least 10 business days before closing, and pay assessments. Owners must comply with all governing documents.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document is primarily the bylaws and an insurance supplement; it does not include the full declaration or rules on leasing, pets, or architectural guidelines, which are likely in the master dedicatory instrument manual.
