How to Handle HOA Covenants

12/19/2014

 
Q: There are certain covenants in the neighborhood association where I live. Are they legally binding?

A: Covenants are rules put into place by communities to ensure certain standards are met in a neighborhood. For example, a covenant may restrict the homeowner's ability to erect a satellite dish if that is felt to be unsightly by the association's governing body.

While covenants aren't laws, they are enforceable by the association. If you violate them, your homeowner's association may be able to sue you - so if you are buying a home in a community with such rules in place, make sure you are familiar with them before moving forward.
