ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN AND REVIEW
Making changes to your home or property?
Wait! Before you start a project, you may need approval from your Association first.
Many community associations require property improvements or modifications (including changes to your home, plantings, play equipment, etc.) to be submitted for approval prior to the start of work. Projects often have particular standards (like what type of fence you can install, what materials to use, paint colors or even the type of grass you can plant). This information can be found in your Association’s Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions. Failure to follow your Association’s guidelines could result in strict and costly penalties, so please know what is required in your Community first. Click on the button below to access your Community's architectural change form.
If you have questions, reach out to us! We are happy to help!

What do I do if I want to make changes or improvements to my home or property?Most all community associations have some level of oversight when it comes to making changes to your property and home. Each community is different, but you may need to seek approval for something as small as a new planting or updating some paint to installing a pool or fence. Check your community’s Declaration (see link above or visit your community portal) for details.

CLOSING DOCUMENTS
Selling your property?
To list your home, your realtor may ask for some information about the community and the Association. You can get most of that information on this page or by logging into your Community Portal. For more information, check out the FAQs.
Then, once you have an offer on your home, your realtor or closing attorney will need to order formal closing documents (closing or estoppel letters) to obtain a state of your account. You can share the link below with them so they can initiate this process.

Important! At closing, be sure to give the buyer of your home ALL amenity access cards, remotes, pool key fobs, keys, etc.
