What is a deed restricted community?

A deed restricted community is a development where a homeowners association (HOA) has restrictions in place that prohibit certain actions. These rules are established and enforced by a private entity (the community HOA), not a local government. The goal of these bylaws is to maintain a neighborhood’s aesthetic and support property values.
