CC&R’s stands for Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. They are the rules and regulations established by a homeowners association (HOA) that govern the use and appearance of properties within a community. CC&R’s are typically recorded with the local county government and are legally binding on all homeowners within the community.

CC&R’s can cover a wide range of topics, including:

1. Property use: CC&R’s can dictate how homeowners can use their property, such as restrictions on home businesses or short-term rentals.
2. Maintenance and upkeep: CC&R’s can establish standards for property maintenance and upkeep, such as requirements for lawn care or exterior painting.
3. Architectural guidelines: CC&R’s can provide guidelines for the design and appearance of homes within the community, such as restrictions on certain types of building materials or color schemes.
4. Parking and vehicle restrictions: CC&R’s can establish rules for parking and vehicle use within the community, such as restrictions on commercial vehicles or limits on the number of vehicles per household.
5. Noise and behavior restrictions: CC&R’s can establish rules for noise levels and behavior within the community, such as restrictions on outdoor gatherings or noise from home entertainment systems.

It’s important to review the CC&R’s of a community before purchasing a property in an HOA, as they can have a significant impact on your daily life as a homeowner. Additionally, violating CC&R’s can result in fines or other penalties from the HOA.
