Covenants are either personal, restricting only the party who signs the agreement, or they "run with the land," passing the burden along to subsequent property owners. A restriction is simply a limitation on the use of the land.
If there is a restrictive covenant on your property you may be able to remove it. The first step would be to negotiate with the original developer or landowner to enter into a formal agreement to remove the covenants from the title.
If the covenant is attached to the land it is said to 'run with the land'. That means it continues to apply to the land regardless of whether either the burdened or neighbouring lands have been sold on. This means a restrictive covenant can last indefinitely even if its purpose now seems obsolete.
Are covenants legally enforceable? Restrictive covenants are usually legally enforceable and binding if they have been set up properly, but can cease to be enforceable after a period of time in some circumstances.
A Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) is a legal document that outlines the rules for a planned community. If you buy a home in a planned community, you generally must become a member of the homeowner association and follow the CC&Rs.
How long do restrictive covenants last? Some covenants are given a set expiration date, which is listed in the deed or a secondary document called the "List of covenants, conditions and restrictions". Otherwise, they may not have an expiration date and can last indefinitely.

As part of the agreement to purchase the property, you have to agree to use the property as a residence only; you may not operate a business from the home. You agree to do so and purchase the property. The agreement you made to refrain from using the home as a business is an example of a restrictive covenant.
Generally, there is no time limit on when a restrictive covenant can be enforced. Also, some restrictive covenants may be considered unenforceable such as if the original landowner cannot be traced or if the restriction is worded ambiguously.
