Garage Sales
An Annual Christian Hills Garage Sale is hosted every weekend in June. For 2025, the weekend is Friday-Saturday, June 20-21. The Board will advertise the sale (no payment of advertisement, posted on social media websites which is free), and will put up signage at all entrances, will create a map with a list of what is for sale at each home, and best of all, will provide to participating houses a couple red balloons to tie to the mailbox to let the public know you are open for business! Year after year, people really love our subdivision's sale due to its organized map and the same color of balloons at each house, making it very easy for garage salers to find the sales!
The Homeowners' Association imposes no restrictions on yard sales. If the Annual Christian Hills Garage Sale weekend (typically the third weekend in June) doesn’t suit you, feel free to hold your sale at another time. Below are the City's regulations regarding garage sales.
City of Rochester Hills Sale Sign Ordinance: - No permit is required for garage sales. - Signs must be placed on private property with the owner's permission. - Each sale is limited to one sign on the premises and one off-premises. - Signs cannot exceed 6 square feet in area and 4 feet in height. - Signs may not be displayed for more than 12 days per calendar year at any location. - Signs must not be in right-of-ways or on publicly owned property. Garage sales are an excellent way to declutter and earn some extra cash while offering great savings to shoppers. Here are some guidelines from the Property Maintenance Ordinance for garage sales: - A maximum of four garage sales is permitted per year. - Each sale can last only 72 hours (3 days). - Only items from within the home may be sold, except for items from neighboring homes in a joint sale. - Garage sale hours are from 9:00 am until. - One sign is allowed on-site and one off-site at the subdivision entrance, provided it is on private property with permission and not in the public road right-of-way. - Homeowners should be mindful of traffic obstructions caused by shoppers.
Other social events are shared in the Christian Hills Subdivision Private Group on Facebook. The Homeowners' Association Board website is separate from the Facebook Private Group, but the Social Committee Chairperson typically posts reminders about upcoming events.
