Castle Hills Residential Association, Inc.

What Castle Hills Residential Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

This is a declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions for the Townhomes at Northpointe Neighborhood Association II, Inc., a townhome community within the larger Castle Hills master-planned development in Lewisville, Texas. It binds all owners of lots in this specific townhome section, and it supplements the master and residential declarations that also apply. This document is the rulebook for what you can and cannot do with your property and what the association is responsible for.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and dwelling, but the association maintains common areas and certain parts of your home as designated in the 'Area of Common Responsibility' chart (Exhibit A). You are responsible for maintaining your own dwelling and lot, including private utility lines from your meter to your home.
• Leasing & rentals: The declaration allows rentals but does not specify a minimum lease term. However, it is subject to the master and residential declarations, which may have additional rules. You must comply with all applicable restrictions when renting your property.
• Architectural review: Any construction, alteration, or improvement to your property, including fences, landscaping, and exterior changes, requires prior written approval from the Architectural Review Committee. This includes changes to party walls and any structures.
• Party walls: If your townhome shares a party wall with a neighbor, you have mutual rights and responsibilities. You cannot alter the wall without approval, and you share the cost of repairs unless one owner caused the damage.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. There are restrictions on noise, hazardous activities, antennas, signs, flags, clotheslines, window air conditioners, and more. You must keep your property free of rubbish and debris, and follow rules about trash containers, parking, and vehicles.
• Assessments & fees: The association can levy regular annual assessments, special assessments, and individual assessments. You are personally obligated to pay them, and unpaid assessments can become a lien on your property and lead to foreclosure. Late charges and interest may apply.
• Dispute resolution: Disputes with the association or other owners must go through mandatory negotiation, mediation, and binding arbitration before any lawsuit. This is a required process for most claims.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not specify the exact amount of assessments, pet rules, or rental restrictions in detail. It also does not cover the rules of the master association or residential association, which are in separate documents. For those details, you need to review the master declaration and residential declaration.
