Common Violations of Deed Restrictions
Raintree Village is a deed-restricted community aimed at ensuring there’s aesthetic uniformity between residential properties and that certain other activities are limited. If you intend to do anything to the exterior of your home, you must complete an application for home improvements and modifications form. This includes installing a storage shed in your backyard.
There’s also an expectation that all residents will maintain their yard and general appearance of the home. Common violations include overgrown yards, mold on homes, trashcans visible from the street and disabled vehicles. Our management company, KPM, drives through our community at least once a week assessing compliance with the deed restrictions. Any violations are communicated in a letter along with a picture of the violation (date & time stamped).
It’s understandable that issuing or receiving such letters can be perceived as a nuisance. Yet, it’s necessary so that all of us remain on the same page of what constitutes a well-kept community (i.e. deed restrictions). In general, the Management Company and HOA Board understand residents are busy. Therefore, you are encouraged to contact the management company (KPM) when a violation cannot be addressed within stated timeframes noted in the letter.
It cannot be emphasized enough that communication is the key if you do not understand a violation. Again, contact KPM or attend our HOA Board meetings for additional clarification.
