Turtle Creek Ranch

What Turtle Creek Ranch's governing documents say

Turtle Creek Ranch Add (North Richland Hills, TX) is a single-family home subdivision. These recorded 'Restrictive Covenant and Agreement' documents bind each lot's owner and the builder, and run with the land. They are not a full set of community rules; they primarily address mandatory binding arbitration for disputes, disclaimers of implied warranties (except a separate Limited Warranty), and owner responsibilities for mold prevention and liability.

• Dispute resolution (mandatory arbitration): Any dispute between owner and builder must be resolved through binding arbitration (under Federal Arbitration Act), not in court. The arbitration process is detailed, including selection of a single arbitrator, discovery rights, and cost apportionment.
• Warranty disclaimers: Builder disclaims all implied warranties (habitability, good workmanship, fitness) to the fullest extent allowed by law, except as provided in a separate written Limited Warranty. If disclaimer is not allowed, implied warranties are limited to two years from the date the builder conveyed the property.
• Mold maintenance & liability: Owner is responsible for maintaining the home to prevent mold growth. The builder disclaims any liability for mold-related damages, injuries, or health effects, and the owner releases the builder from such claims. A list of maintenance steps is provided (e.g., cleaning, ventilation, leak repair).
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not contain typical community rules such as pet restrictions, leasing rules, architectural standards, parking, age restrictions, or assessment obligations. It is a builder-homeowner agreement focused on dispute resolution, warranties, and mold, not an HOA or condominium declaration.
