HOW DO WE LOOK?<br />
Curb appeal has a big impact on your property value, even if your home<br />
is not for sale. Buyers evaluate the neighborhood, not just one house.<br />
Stand back from your house and take a close look to see if it needs a minimakeover.<br />
Think about security as well. Has your shrubbery become<br />
overgrown, covering windows or blocking the sidewalk? Do low-hanging<br />
limbs obscure the front? Does the lawn have brown areas or weeds? Is<br />
the siding mildewed or paint peeling? You may want to ask a friend’s<br />
opinion; it is easy to overlook things we see everyday. Make plans now to<br />
spruce up. Cars that are parked in the street are also a turn-off to buyers.<br />
Make the extra effort to keep cars in the driveway. It looks better and is<br />
safer for your neighbors and your car.<br />
MOST COMMON DEED VIOLATIONS<br />
The Volume of letters sent regarding Violations continues to be an increasing<br />
expense for the <strong>Copper</strong> <strong>Grove</strong> Home Owners Association. All expenses<br />
incurred including postage to mail out fines, weigh seriously on the<br />
assessments paid by each homeowner. We request your compliance to help<br />
keep cost to a minimum and to keep our community as attractive as possible.<br />
TOP 5 VIOLATIONS<br />
1. Leaving trash cans out in public view.<br />
2. Not maintaining your yard.<br />
3. Not maintaining your fencing.<br />
4. Not maintaining your paint on your house/or mold on the siding.<br />
PET OWNERS<br />
Please be mindful to keep all dogs on a leash when walking them, to keep<br />
the community safe. Also please be respectful of your neighbors and<br />
clean up after your dog. First Service Residential gets a lot of complaints<br />
regarding these issues.<br />
HOMEOWNERS<br />
Please DO NOT TAPE FLIERS of any kind to our metal fencing. It removes<br />
the paint when the tape is pulled off. Thus they we need to be painted<br />
before they start to rust.<br />
