There are many restrictive stick/brick and RV communities in FL. I live in a deed restricted community where I cannot store my boat or RV in my yard and where I have to get a permission slip to load/clean said boat/RV, in my driveway, for up to three days each year. I also need a permission slip to hold a yard sale and even with that, can only put up two signs. I'm not complaining at all because I researched the restrictions well before signing a purchase contract. There are many other communities and RV parks in FL where requirements are non-existent or not nearly so strict, so I suggest you look for those places that you believe will better fit your lifestyle rather than expect some rules might be bent, because you'll probably end up complaining about the restrictive conditions all the time.
