Apparently they didn't tell the OP about this before they bought it. Glad I bought a regular house.
It would be much worse for you as an owner if the easement in front of your patio was to be maintained by an out of state owner, you would have to look at it every day. This way you maintain what you see and your other neighbor maintains what you don't see. Patio Villas are not for everyone but neither are designers or cottage homes that have larger yards to maintain. To each his own.
