Editable document sets for Texas subdivision HOAs (Property Code Chapter 209) and condominiums (Chapter 82), drafted for the 2025 reforms of the 89th Legislature — electronic voting, the new architectural-committee process, and the TREC filing rules handled correctly. The smart starting point before your attorney review.
Complete governing-document set for a Texas subdivision homeowners association.
Complete set for a Texas condominium under the Uniform Condominium Act.
Think of these as your professional first draft: far more complete than free samples, and ready for a quick attorney review instead of an expensive from-scratch drafting bill.
Most associations save with the $42 package (all four documents) — but if you only need one, grab it on its own.

Texas writes its own rulebook — and it rewrote a chunk of it in 2025. Subdivision HOAs answer to Chapter 209 (the Texas Residential Property Owners Protection Act); condominiums answer to Chapter 82 (the Uniform Condominium Act). Statute overrides your documents every time they disagree, so documents written for another state — or for the wrong chapter — fail quietly until the moment they matter.
Ballots are not optional. Board elections require written, signed ballots (§209.0058), and since September 1, 2025, every association must offer at least one of proxy, absentee, or electronic voting (§209.00592) — with the absentee-ballot statutory language reproduced word for word.
It's a Certificate of Formation — not Articles of Incorporation. Texas nonprofits organize under Business Organizations Code Chapter 22 with a Certificate of Formation (Form 202). Out-of-state templates get this wrong on page one.
Enforcement runs on rails. Fines require notice and a hearing (§209.006–.007), amendments take 67% unless your declaration says otherwise (§209.0041), no foreclosure for fines alone (§209.009), and owners keep a 180-day right of redemption (§209.011).

Associations must offer proxy, absentee, or electronic ballots at minimum — with identity verification and record-keeping. These templates build the framework in.
Associations with 60+ units or a manager must publish dedicatory instruments online; management certificates now list fees and websites; condo resale certificates capped at $375.
ACC seats now require open candidate solicitation with 10-day notice before appointment — a board-election-style process most old documents never contemplated.
Owners can request records by email or web form — the certified-mail requirement is gone. Records provisions here match the new procedure.
Political meetings in common areas are protected (§202.013), and solar roof tiles now count as protected solar devices (§202.010).
Covenants created on or after September 1, 2025 can't ban keeping six or fewer chickens on a single-family lot. New declarations — like these — must account for it.
The recorded CC&Rs — assessments, the association lien, use restrictions written around Chapter 202's protected categories, and the 67% amendment mechanics.
Board structure, open board meetings under §209.0051, records under §209.005, and the 2025 voting-method mandate wired into the meeting machinery.
The Texas nonprofit charter under BOC Chapter 22 — Form 202-aligned, with association powers and registered-agent provisions.
Written signed ballots (§209.0058), absentee ballots with the exact statutory language, electronic-ballot procedures, and quorum counting (§209.00593).
Unit boundaries, common elements, allocated interests, and every mandatory content item of §82.055 — recorder-ready.
Board and officer machinery under §82.106, open meetings under §82.108, plus the 2025 website and management-certificate duties.
The unit owners' association organized under BOC Chapter 22 — the document Texas actually files, not out-of-state "Articles."
Membership meetings and electronic voting under §82.110 as amended by SB 2629, with verification and record-keeping safeguards.
If your community is a condominium regime, you need the Chapter 82 Condo library. If it's a subdivision of homes with a property owners association, you need the Chapter 209 HOA library. Check your recorded documents: "Declaration of Condominium" means Chapter 82; "Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions" means Chapter 209.
They're drafted in-house and mapped section-by-section to Property Code Chapters 209 and 82, the Business Organizations Code, and Chapter 202's protected-use rules. TexHOA Docs is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice — these are professional self-help templates, the same model as any legal-forms library.
These are templates you complete yourself. They're not a substitute for legal advice, and we recommend having a Texas-licensed attorney review your finished documents before your association adopts or records them — especially with how much changed on September 1, 2025.
Editable Microsoft Word (.docx) files, delivered instantly at checkout through Gumroad. Complete the red-bracket fields, and you're ready for attorney review and adoption.
Texas amends its community-association statutes every session. Package purchases include 12 months of update delivery, and a dated change log records every revision we make.
Texas plays by its own rules — Chapter 209 and Chapter 82, cited throughout, updated for the 89th Legislature.
