Review CC&Rs Before Buying

Review CC&Rs Before Buying – CC&Rs stand for covenants, conditions and restrictions. They are a list of rules limiting what homeowners may do in a particular housing development. It is critical that you read the CC&Rs before ever making an offer on a home. The limitations can be very lax or very strict. You might love working in your garden and be surprised to learn you can’t have one per the CC&Rs for a specific area. This would, of course, make your enjoyment of your new home less than what you envisioned when you purchased it.
