What Collinsbrook Farm's governing documents say

Collinsbrook Farm (Prosper, TX) is a standard single-family home HOA. You own your lot and house; the association maintains common areas and enforces rules through a declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs). This document governs what you can build, how you use your property, and your obligations as an owner.

• Residential use & occupancy: Each lot is for a single detached single-family residence, max 2 stories, with a minimum 2,000 sq ft air-conditioned living area. No trade or business is allowed except quiet home offices (no clients/suppliers). Occupancy is limited to persons living together as a single housekeeping unit; if not related by blood/adoption/marriage, max 2 persons per bedroom.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases for less than 6 months are prohibited. No short-term rentals.
• Architectural review: All exterior improvements (construction, landscaping, fences, etc.) require prior written approval from the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) or Declarant. The reviewer has sole aesthetic discretion; fees may apply. Variances are possible but must conform to community style.
• Parking & vehicles: All vehicles must be parked in an enclosed garage except for temporary loading/unloading, visitor parking, or as allowed by the Board. Prohibited: boats, trailers, campers, inoperable vehicles, and those carrying flammable/explosive materials. On-street parking must comply with city ordinances.

• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments (max 20% increase per year without member vote); acquisition assessment of $500 per lot at transfer; special assessments for capital improvements; individual special assessments for fines or repair costs. Assessments become liens, may bear interest (18% if not set), and can be foreclosed. Reserve fund required.
