Thank you both John and John for your answers, I appreciate it.

What is a Liber number?
I know that RE and people can get the lots mixed up on what lot is in what subdivision. It is a lot of territory and so many facts to remember besides that. We are all just human.
I would prefer to know for certain whether a property had certain restrictions/conditions to meet before signing on the dotted line and passing money over to escrow. We have the concern of our pets that we would want to make sure fit into the community. No roosters though! Might like some laying hens though, later on too.
An example: Our neighborhood association here has some wacky restrictions that do not name anything about the color that you can paint your house. So the HOA takes it upon themselves to have you fill out a form with the paint samples and take it to ever neighbor whom your lot touches and also ones that are across the street and get their approval and signatures.
The same goes for the yard shrubbery changes, they thought of a way so that you have to comply with their idea of a yard. Meaning mostly grass in the front yard, even though every year we are on severe water restrictions, then the city gives us instructions on how to let it brown out and not die, hopefully. I don't understand their logic considering that we are also told by the water company to plant other plants that are more suitable for our climate. The annual meeting is next week, so I will bring that up, if they let us speak at all.
I have found lots of fuzzy thinking and treatment by the HOA over the years to the folks who live here. Depends so much on who is the one to be the president it seems. You have to really know and trust them, to elect them. There have been lawsuits and large amounts of money paid out to attorneys over things that should not have happened, IMO. One was our neighbor the Prez. did not want subdivisions going in around us on other large plats of land. One was over garden implement/tool storage sheds in the yards, either too large or being seen from the street.
I have liked where we didn't live in an association better before here. Looking at some of the Puna neighborhoods though that can still be a problem. They can still be kinda rough.
<I've tried to get a list of lots that are Aina Pua and not Tiki Gardens as well as a copy of the CC&Rs>
That would be great if there were an effort made to get those by some of the members of the list. I think Nancy Fryhover lived in Tiki and some other gentleman (Toucano) who posts on here in Aina Pua. You never know when you live in the subdivision, who you may be able to run across, who has the correct info. that you can count on that is written up corectly.
Aloha,

Apparently, while there are no CC&R's for the subdivision, one owner who owned four lots drafted and recorded CC&R's for those four lots. I wouldn't have known that without the title report (and further getting a copy of the CC&R's by the recorded Liber number.)

If you're dealing with a Realtor that works regularly in the area, they should know if there are CC&Rs.
On this side, Aina Pua is the really tough one, because I've tried to get a list of lots that are Aina Pua and not Tiki Gardens as well as a copy of the CC&Rs and its nearly impossible. Even escrow companies are clueless about this, despite Aina Pua being around for years.
You get a copy of the preliminary title report early on in escrow process. Good Realtors make a request to an escrow company for a "property profile" right when you get an accepted offer. That will often reveal CC&Rs even when the other Realtor may not have known it. Often, the escrow companies can get you the preliminary title report within a few days of the accepted offer, so its usually not an issue.
