Kuester Management Group reflects on common HOA guidelines when it comes to plants, trees, décor, and more.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - ncarol.com -- Living in an HOA community means agreeing to abide by the association's governing documents. These rules are put in place to help protect property value and maintain a safe, enjoyable community. However, many homeowners don't consider regulations about what they can do in their own backyard. Kuester Management Group has released a statement to the press regarding common landscaping and property guidelines that homeowners should keep in mind.
"Landscaping guidelines can vary from one community to the next," says Bryan Kuester, President of Kuester Management Group. "Before you plant flowers, check to see if the neighborhood has standards in place about the types of plants, colors, and where they can or cannot be planted. For instance, the HOA might restrict invasive or groundcover plants that could encroach on another member's property or limit the size or location of personal gardens."

Look into rules about trees as well, says Kuester. Homeowners may need approval before planting, replacing, or removing trees. They may be required to keep trees and bushes trimmed a certain distance from power lines, fences, siding, or property lines also.
Adding décor such as lights, furniture, fountains, and sculptures can be one way that homeowners like to add a personal touch to their property but double-check on what is permitted. String lights may be okay, but bright spotlights that could disturb neighbors may be a different story unless they are on motion sensors. Décor may be required to be well-maintained and out of direct sight from the street.
"Homeowners should also know what landscaping features are on their property versus what is in a common area," says Kuester. "This is especially true for trees. The HOA is responsible for maintaining common areas, and homeowners are generally not allowed to make changes within these areas. If you notice issues, contact the board to let them know and find out next steps."
