Covenants Explained

Covenants between land owners may be positive or negative in nature. Positive covenants require the owner of the burdened land to take some action on their own or adjoining property usually requiring the expenditure of money, i.e. covenants to keep property in good external repair for community purposes. Negative or Restrictive covenants require the owner of the burdened land to refrain from some activity on his land, i.e. not to carry on a trade or business so as not to upset the character of the community.
