A. Covenants are rules and regulations set up by committees for certain subdivisions or areas of land development. These regulations are intended to protect property values of the houses built there. Examples of covenants might include regulations on how close homes can be to one another, lawn maintenance, or other such rules as no satellite dishes, attached garages, all wood siding on elevations, etc.

Covenants are the legal documents that govern your HOA. You will also hear them called protective covenants, restrictive covenants, the declaration of restrictive covenants, and CC&Rs. These documents are created and filed prior to development.
