Restrictive Covenant Sample

When the Land Trust sells land, or purchases or has donated the development rights on land, a “restrictive covenant” is registered with the deed to the property. The covenant “runs with the land” so that its restrictions apply not only to the present owner, but also to any future owner.

A sample of the restrictive covenant, similar to the one we have used for the purchase/sale of land at Cape Tryon, Cousins Shore and Park Corner is available as a PDF file and as a Word file.
