I think that is correct. Home businesses are considered an internal deed restriction, unlike outside decorations which are considered external. External restrictions are enforced by community standards, which I believe is part of the CDD’s. Internal restrictions are enforced by the developer. Unfortunately, internal deed violations appear to be very selectively enforced. Furthermore, it appears the developer looks the other way on enforcing shutting down Air B&B operations. If they enforced that particular restriction it would eliminate a pocket of demand for new home sales, which apparently takes priority. It’s kind of hypocritical to have the deed restrictions and selectively choose which ones should be enforced.
