Three things to check in the document

01

Height, materials and colors

Look for height caps and any specified materials, styles or finishes.

02

Placement and property boundaries

Check boundaries, setbacks, street-facing areas and shared fences where the document addresses them.

03

Application and approval requirements

Find the forms, drawings, samples or written approval the document calls for.

From your PDF to a useful conversation

  1. Upload the relevant PDF

    Start with the CC&Rs or architectural guidelines. Text PDFs support up to 200 pages; scanned PDFs up to 20 pages. Each file can be up to 4 MB.

  2. Ask the fence question

    The question is already filled in. Add details about what you want to install or replace, then check what the document actually says.

  3. Check the source and the next step

    Read the quoted wording and PDF page. Bring the relevant passages to your HOA or contractor to confirm the current requirements.

Covrly helps read documents. It does not grant HOA approval, confirm your boundary, or determine whether a clause is enforceable. Missing amendments or separate guidelines can change what you need to check.

Don't have the PDF yet?

Ask your HOA manager for the current CC&Rs, amendments and architectural guidelines. Your seller or closing documents may also have a copy. Covrly reads documents you upload; it does not locate them for you.
