Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Deed Restriction
I bought my house in 1993. I have 3 daughters so we had to buy a house with at least 3 bedrooms..The house we purchased had already had a garage made into a bedroom, which has a front window and a closet. Today 9/14/06 I received in the mail that I have 15 days to turn my daughters bedroom into a garage. The home owners association is saying that all house have to have a garage. After all these years they are now trying to enforce neighborhood deed restrictions. This is something I can not afford to do and also my daughter would no longer have her bedroom. Please, any assistance would be greatly appreciated in this matter. Thank you

Re: Deed Restriction
Your only out is to prove a waiver or estoppel in court. Good luck.
