As much as closing costs cost seller this should be mandatory requirement in deed restrictions community before house offered for sale.

I agree in part. But when I bought I had 2 different home inspectors check the resale property for everything. They have been working for The Villagers for decades and must know the deed restrictions so when they wrote and said the home was in compliance they would have been in trouble if it hadn’t been. It is also simple to add a clause to the sales agreement that the home is bought with all deed restrictions adhered to. So if something was out of compliance the seller would have to fix it first. As some buyers maybe from different states or countries they might miss something themselves.
