I have read several times in the blogs that MC's are not responsible for tenants, it's the landlord's responsiblity. What if the MC is facilitating the renting townhomes for the builder?

Same rules as anyone else has to follow.

The MCis just wearing a different hat.

What's the problem?

The M.C. is acting as the agent for the builder and they(the builder) follows the rules as any renter or owner is required to do. Being the person responsible for enforcement and writting letters or documenting non compliants to the rules, the M.C will need to enforce equally, no matter who they are working for as to the needs and instructions from the Board. This could be the ugliest of all HOA problems and it is called
"SELECTIVE ENFORCEMENT" which no Board wants to have to deal with.

As is often the case here, some background research is needed and caution taken before acting.

First you need to know if the builder is the same as the declarant of the governing documents.
Then you need to thoroughly read and understand these documents to see if the declarant has any exemptions from the covenants as compared to anyone else.

Only then will you more clearly understand your present situation and how to proceed.
