If an owner has rented out his/her home and does not live within the complex, can he/she still use the recreational facilities?
If there is no provision in any of the governing documents prohibiting a non-resident owner from using the recreational facilities while his/her unit or lot is rented, he/she may continue to use them. If there is such a provision, the law is currently unclear as to whether the prohibition can be enforced. For additional information, see Liebler v. Point Loma Tennis Club (1995) 40 Cal.App.4th 1600, 47 Cal.Rptr.2d 783 (enforcing a restriction), and MaJor v. Miraverde Homeowners Assn. (1992) 7 Cal.App.4th 618, 9 Cal.Rptr.2d 237 (invalidating a restriction).
