Explanation

CC&Rs are private deed restrictions created by developers of planned communities and recorded in the public record. They bind all current and future owners within the community. In Nevada, CC&Rs govern everything from exterior paint colors and fence heights to pet restrictions, short-term rentals, and landscaping standards. Nevada's Common-Interest Ownership Act (NRS Chapter 116) provides the legal framework for HOAs and their ability to enforce CC&Rs.
