Surprise Farms is a good example of why “Surprise Farms” on a listing is not enough information. The HOA site distinguishes Surprise Farms I from later phases, and each has its own association. Fees, rules and amenities can differ.

The HOA also hosts practical community items: its site lists a Willow Canyon Community Market on Saturdays from 3 to 7 p.m. (starting January 2025) and publishes meeting dates, landscape requirements and dog leash reminders.

Surprise Farms I is bounded by Cotton Lane on the west, Loop 303 on the east, Bell Road on the south and Greenway Road on the north, per the HOA. Cimarron Springs Middle School, which enrolls students from the Surprise Farms boundary, is near Greenway Road and Cotton Lane.

HOA and amenity notes

Per the HOA’s FAQ, membership is mandatory for owners, and assessments fund items such as landscape maintenance, insurance, management, architectural control and enforcement. The HOA site publishes a front-yard landscape minimum (either 1 tree and 6 bushes, or 2 trees and 4 bushes) and a leash reminder tied to City of Surprise code. Assessment amounts were not stated on the pages we reviewed.

Verify before you buy: HOA dues and special assessments, rental rules, the school boundary for the exact address, and current inventory. Ask for the resale disclosure and governing documents.
