Have the code Nazis hit on your car?

So a private party can create covenants that apply to land being sold? Is the buyer bound by those covenants after he take possession of the property?

Yes and it stays with the property for the duration. Oklahoma is one of the few places that still have abstracts so those preserve the covenants. When the attorney opinion is done prior to closing the sale of a piece of property all covenants have to be listed in the final report. We have them in minimum home size restrictions, all new materials, type of exterior materials, fence type material, out building restrictions and the such all over the place.
