They should be able to give you the wise-counsel you seek and not people on social media.
Courtyard villas do not have zero clearance lot lines. The villas are about 10 feet apart, and the property line is located midway between the houses. However, the deed restriction covenant document establishes a "side yard" easement that is somewhat complicated, but it clearly defines the rights and responsibilities of each neighbor. If you live in a courtyard villa, I would suggest you print the deed restrictions and read them very carefully. You actually need to read it several times to fully comprehend the terminology and rules. The document can be found on the "distrctgov.org" website.
