The posters who claim that renting a house is a business and that tenants are customers have a very weak argument at best. Many people consider rental property to be an investment, not a business.
When I tried to get a vehicle removed from a visitor parking space in a courtyard villa area, the deed compliance office told me that the vehicle owner was not violating any deed restriction because he did not own a house in the section. Nevermind that he was also not visiting anyone. He was just storing a vehicle on our property and was not even renting a house. They also told me that renters were not subject to the deed restrictions for the house they are renting.

Too late to establish a minimum time/rental length for existing owners. If a vote to change is held, and an existing owner votes no to setting a minimum length, they are not required to follow the change. If they vote yes, or sell the unit, then the minimum stay is in play. Does anyone else disagree with this?
