HOA Governing Documents

Homeowners Association (HOA) governing documents are the legal rules and guidelines that manage a community or neighborhood association. They typically include the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs), which outline property use and owner responsibilities; Bylaws, detailing how the HOA operates and its governance structure; and Rules and Regulations, which specify community standards and acceptable behavior. These documents help maintain property values, ensure order, and promote a positive living environment within the community. Homeowners are expected to adhere to these documents, and they often play a crucial role in the decision-making processes of the HOA.
