What Bailey Ranch Estates Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

Bailey Ranch Estates is a single-family home HOA in Lindsay, Texas, governed by a Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. This document sets out the rules for owning a home in this community, including property use, assessments, and architectural review. It applies to all current and future homeowners in the subdivision.

• What you own & maintain: You own your detached single-family home and lot. The HOA maintains common areas like open spaces, entry features, a detention pond, and a dog park. You are responsible for your yard, including mowing, weeding, and edging curbs, and must keep grass under 6 inches.
• Assessments & fees: Annual HOA dues are $300 per year ($25/month), paid in advance, with the first payment collected at closing. The board can increase dues up to 15% per year without a vote; larger increases require 50% approval. A $125 transfer fee is charged at each home sale.
• Architectural review: Exterior changes need approval from the Modifications Committee. Plans must be submitted for review. The committee checks design harmony, quality, and location. Interior remodeling doesn't need approval unless visible from the street.
• Parking & vehicles: Boats, RVs, trailers, and similar vehicles can't be parked in driveways or front yards. Small boats or popup campers may be kept in side/rear yards if hidden from view and on a solid pad. No abandoned or inoperative vehicles unless screened.
• Pets: You may keep up to 4 household pets (dogs, cats, etc.) per lot. Livestock and poultry are prohibited. Pets must be confined to your fenced rear yard or inside, and you must keep the lot clean of pet waste and odor.
• Property use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. One detached home per lot, max 2 stories. One storage building allowed in rear yard with specific materials. Garages must hold 2 cars and can't be converted. No clotheslines visible from the street, and yard art is limited to 4 items.
• Enforcement & liens: If you violate rules (like yard maintenance), the HOA can hire work after one written notice and charge you the cost plus 10% interest. Unpaid assessments accrue interest, and the HOA can file a lien and foreclose if not paid.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is the full declaration, but it doesn't include the HOA's bylaws, rules and regulations, or any separate architectural guidelines. It also doesn't specify current dues amounts beyond the initial $300/year, as those can change.
