For Realtors

The Trails North Forty is a self-managed community with a Board of Directors elected by the community. We are finding that new homeowners are moving in without any idea that the Trails North Forty is a governed community and they are shocked that this information was not brought up by their attorney and/or realtor.

Prior to any real estate transaction, your clients should be made aware that they will be moving into a community governed by its Controlling Documents (Covenants & Restrictions). A copy of this document should be passed on to the buyer when purchasing a home.  The C&R addresses such matters as Quarterly Dues, Architectural Control, Grounds & Landscaping management, Parking Pad regulations, Tree Removal, Sprinklers, etc. It also addresses the need for Proof of Homeowner’s Insurance on a yearly basis.

The buyer should have an opportunity to review this document prior to closing so that there is a clear understanding of the requirements of this community. Please make sure your company receives a copy of our Controlling Documents from the seller to share with your interested client. If the seller does not have a copy of the document, a copy can be made by contacting the Trails North Forty Treasurer’s Office. The seller will be charged $.25 per page for copying fees.

A copy of the Association Controlling Documents are available for review here (read only document)
