Covenants are restrictions on the property that are part of the title. Often houses in sub-divisions have them as do property that is sub-divided off a main part. Examples would be not to build any structure more than 50' high, no fences more than 4 feet high, the sub-division must approve any building permits. There are others such as to restrict the sale to a specific type of person. In cases such as restriction of sales, the courts may very well strike them down as being prejudiced and not affording equal opportunity, but most of the reasonable ones will be enforced.
