The statute of limitations for restrictive covenants varies from state to state. You would need to check your state laws for the limits in your jurisdiction.
Restrictive alienation refers to limitations imposed on the transfer or ownership of property or assets, often through legal or contractual means. This concept typically arises in contexts such as real estate, where covenants or restrictions may prevent owners from selling or leasing their property to certain individuals or entities. Such restrictions can protect community interests or maintain property value, but they can also limit the owner's ability to freely manage their asset. Overall, restrictive alienation highlights the balance between individual property rights and broader societal concerns.

Covenants can be categorized into several types, primarily including positive (affirmative) covenants, which require a party to take specific actions, and negative (restrictive) covenants, which prohibit certain actions. There are also financial covenants, often used in loan agreements, that impose specific financial metrics a borrower must maintain. Additionally, real estate covenants can dictate how property is used or maintained. Each type serves to protect the interests of the parties involved and ensure compliance with agreed-upon standards.

You should check the language in the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants to see if the developer reserved the right to make amendments to the restrictions. A developer usually reserve the right to make changes. However, even if he can make changes, a change in dwelling size should not affect your lot if made after you purchased it. You should seek the advice of a real estate attorney in your area.

Real estate refers to property that consists of land and any permanent structures on it, including natural resources like crops, minerals, and water. It is a form of real property distinct from personal property, which includes movable items like vehicles and furniture. Real estate is broadly categorized into four main types: residential, commercial, industrial, and raw land. Residential real estate encompasses homes and living spaces such as single-family houses, condominiums, and apartments. Commercial real estate includes buildings used for business purposes, like offices, shopping centers, and hotels. Industrial real estate involves properties used for manufacturing and warehousing. Raw land refers to undeveloped property. Real estate is a significant economic sector and often represents the largest financial asset individuals own. Its value tends to appreciate over time, making it not only essential for housing but also a lucrative investment opportunity
