It all depends on the ccrs and any other deed restrictions that homes in the covenant may be subject to. During the disclosure period you are delivered all of that documentation to review. There indeed may be restrictions about conformance of design, certainly also with respect to landscaping, that may be subject to a review by the HOA of that particular subdivision. The permit process which in and of itself is not much fun is independent of ccrs/deed restrictions placed on individual homes.
As far as looking to retire and play some golf, I envy you bigtime! There is alot to choose from and if you are in no rush you will do well to be selective.

January 16, 2008 at 1:22 PM #136794SD RealtorParticipantFarbet you can ask the builders to pay this tax… you may want to read up on the origination of MR to find out the names of the state politicians who originated the ideas. I will give you a hint, they are either democrats or republicans. Go to google, look it up to find out.

January 16, 2008 at 5:45 PM #137056pfflyerParticipantThanks SD Realtor..I have built and remodeled several homes and businesses so not afraid to get dirty. I also am in no hurry. My question is whether or not this falling market makes more sense to buy a home which someone has already spent too much and can’t recover their investment. I want to avoid MR. I look at sdlookup.com and see that many homes on the market for 2.4M (or thereabouts) were sold a few years ago for 1.4- 1.7M. I know that construction costs (concrete!!) have risen but know that I can general a home by myself, saving quite a few $$. Do you think it is worth spending big bucks on a covenant lot and doing it myself while renting or waiting for the hammer to fall on some homeowner who got in too deep?
