Re: Hoa restrictions
Yes, the CC&R's are a contract that you signed and it should have been given to you before escrow closed so that you knew what you were agreeing to. It is probably standard for HOA to state you can not run a business, and equally standard that people do it all the time. How is anyone going to know that you have a home business? Why is anyone going to care unless it increases the number of parked cars or is a brothel? I would not worry about it at all.
