The Community Associations Institute (CAI) is an international organization designed to provide education, resources, and advocacy for community association leaders, such as homeowners associations, condominium owners, and housing cooperatives.
Easements, Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (ECCR) refer to the limitations and obligations placed on property usage and design, which are often enforceable by homeowner associations or property developers.
Private covenants, often referred to as deed restrictions, are legal obligations imposed in a deed that restrict the use or activities that may be conducted on property. These covenants are designed to maintain a certain level of standard or uniformity within a development area or neighborhood.
