HOA- Short Term Rental Nee Construction

[Farah A.]

Hi there,

I've been on the hunt for townhome to use as a short term rental and came across a new construction that checks all my boxes in Houston, Medical Center Area/ South Main. There is an HOA ($125/month) which takes care of the community gate, dog park and pool. My agent called up the sales rep and he checked and said STRs are allowed.

Do you think it is more likely that a new construction HOA is lenient when the community is still being built up as they are still trying to find residents? I fear that once the whole community is settled in they'll start restricting the HOA Rules on STRs. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Farah

Rules can always change. I would buy in a non HOA neighborhood
