Yes. Members who intend to lease their property, personally or through a rental agency, must fill out the necessary paperwork and mail completed copies to the Community Manager’s Office. Completed paperwork must include tenant access form(s), copy of lease agreement, and a non-refundable transfer fee. The lease must be approved by the Club’s Board.

A member may lease their home according to each neighborhood supplement and in conjunction with the Use Restrictions, Article X, Section 7. Please review both important documents if you are considering leasing your home. Two weeks (14 days) prior to the commencement of any lease, the completed paperwork with the board’s notification is required. The Board may adjust the processing fee from time to time without amending the Use Restrictions.

The Master Association’s Tenant Information & Property Access Form will be located on Esplanade at Azario Lakewood Ranch community website.

The tenant’s access to the community and amenities will be provided for the period designated on the signed Tenant Information and Property Access Form. Upon expiration of that term, access will be denied.

If you intend to renew a lease, do so in accordance with the Use Restrictions which require an updated, fully executed Tenant Information and Property Access Form submitted to the resort community management team located at the Pro Shoppe.

Yes. Esplanade at Azario is a pet-friendly community, but residents must comply with the community’s pet restrictions.

Current property and association information indicates the following restrictions:

• Pets must be maintained as common household pets
• Owners are responsible for complying with all current HOA rules governing pets and their use of community/common areas

The HOA documents should be consulted before purchasing if you own a particular dog breed, as current property records specifically state that breed restrictions apply but do not publicly identify a definitive list of prohibited breeds.

Because HOA rules may be amended, buyers should verify current pet restrictions directly with the Esplanade at Azario Homeowners Association before purchasing, particularly when bringing three pets or a breed that may be subject to restrictions.
