Deed Restriction Information page.
If you have any questions concerning the interpretation and meaning of any deed restriction please consult your attorney.
What are deed restrictions?
Deed restrictions are terms and conditions that are part of the deed to your property and place limitations on how you may use your property. When this area was originally platted as a subdivision the developer created this set of terms and conditions that applied to each and every purchaser of property whether the property was bought by a builder or another developer or homeowner. Each subsequent purchaser of that property bought the property "subject to restrictions of record."
Why have deed restrictions?
Deed restrictions are for your benefit. They establish certain rules that must be followed by everyone within the given subdivision. Not only do deed restrictions prohibit parking boats and trailers on a driveway, as an example, they also require that all houses be no less than 1,100 square feet. Deed restrictions are designed to preserve character and hence value of a neighborhood.
Who may enforce the restrictions?
Deed restrictions are contracts between and among all property owners who live in a single subdivision. Any one subdivision property owner may seek to enforce the restrictions against another subdivision property owner.
