Not necessarily. However, the covenants authorizing the association would need to be in your title policy.

Who is considered a home owner?
In our little corner of the world we define/clarify a homeowner as the owner of record on the deed. So, yes, in our neck of the woods, you would have to actually be listed on the deed to be considered the "homeowner" that is eligible to be on the board, if our governing documents restricted directors to association members. If you are not listed on the deed, you are not a member of our association, even though you may be married to the person listed on the title/deed. If you're name isn't on there with him/her, then you are not a qualified owner/member of the association. However, our directors are not required to be association homeowners/members, so a spouse of a member could run for our board of directors.
How does go about removing a deed restriction that was between previous owners none of which are involved w property at this time and no Homeowners Association to enforce it?
A "deed restriction between previous owners" (i.e., specifically by name with clear intent that the restriction is only personal) should not effect you in the slightest. However, many deed restrictions "run with the land," that is, they restrict any future owner and cannot be removed without obtaining a release from every possible party who could benefit from keeping the restriction, or by getting a new deed from the previous owner that does not contain the restrictions.

Which holds more power the deed of a house or a homeowners association agreement?
Your answer depends on the location of the house(s). Any deed for a house situated in a land-use-defined homeowners association is subject to the agreements contained in the association's governing documents. A deed for a house that is not situated in an HOA is not subject to any HOA. If you believe that your deed gives you power to disagree with HOA agreements, please consult with a local common interest community-savvy attorney, who will help you sort out your differences.

Does a deed restriction show up on the original deed?
Deed restrictions are recited in the deed by which the restriction was created but they are not always carried forward on subsequent deeds. Even if not recited, the land is subject to the restriction as long as the original restriction was recorded in the land records. The purpose of a comprehensive title examination is, in part, to disclose all the encumbrances, restrictions, liens, claims, etc., that affect the land.

Is there a Deed restriction on parking tractortrailer on private property?
There may be a deed restriction against parking a tractor-trailer on the property. You would need to check the deed for the land in question to see if any restriction is recited in the deed. If you're asking if you can PLACE such a deed restriction on a parcel of your land that you sell to someone else the answer is yes. You should have an attorney draft the deed to make certain it conforms to your state laws and effectively applies the restriction. Generally, local laws and ordinances address that issue. Check with your town to see if there is any general rule against parking a tractor-trailer on provate property.
Before you buy your house can you have the homeowners association removed from the home deed?
No. The owner of the land has made the land subject to the terms, provisions, rules and regulations of the homeowner's association in order to preserve the integrity and exclusivity of the subdivision. Every lot owner has the right to expect every other lot owner to abide by all of the covenants and restrictions that affect the planned community. FYI: Generally a buyer has no standing to have any restriction "removed" from the land they intend to purchase. Generally, when land is restricted, your only choice is whether or not to purchase it "as is". If you accept the deed you also accept the encumbrances.
