Hardeman Buddy Addition

What Hardeman Buddy Addition's governing documents say

This document is a restrictive covenant agreement for individual lots in the Hardeman Buddy Addition subdivision (Justin, TX) — it is not a full community rulebook but a builder-to-owner agreement that runs with the land, binding future owners. It focuses on dispute resolution, warranty limitations, and mold liability, not on typical HOA rules like pets or leasing.

• Dispute resolution (mandatory mediation/arbitration): Any dispute between owner and builder must first be submitted to mediation; if not settled, it goes to binding arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act. Arbitration is conducted by a single neutral arbitrator, and the owner is not initially required to pay more than court filing fees.
• Warranty limitations: The only express warranty from builder is the written limited home warranty. Owner waives all implied warranties (e.g., good and workmanlike construction) and agrees that the limited warranty replaces them.
• Mold liability: Builder disclaims all liability for mold, mildew, fungi, or other biological impurities. Owner releases builder from any claims related to such substances and is responsible for maintenance and prevention.
• Builder's repurchase right: If the reasonable cost to repair a construction defect exceeds 20% of the improvements' current fair market value (excluding the defect), builder may elect to repurchase the property under Texas Property Code §27.004.
• Manufacturer warranties: Warranties on appliances, HVAC, and other equipment are assigned to the owner. Builder makes no warranties on those items and disclaims implied warranties of merchantability and fitness.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not establish community-wide rules on pets, leasing, parking, architectural standards, or assessments. Those may be in separate HOA declarations or other recorded documents.
