pAYMENT iSSUES WITH mONTHLY DUES

A number of homeowners have contacted the Blog with their monthly dues payment issues.  In the past, the HOA gave homeowners up to 30 days before taking action to collect on late dues.  The Board decided to change their collection policy last year, reducing the late payment date to 15 days and instituting a late payment fee($10) along with a 10% penalty($71).

This has resulted in many homeowners being fined and/or receiving letters requiring them to go in front of the Board for a hearing.

The Blog would like to hear from homeowners that have had similar issues, for example:

  • Have you received fines for late payment when you mailed a check or paid  through your Bank’s bill payment service?

  • Have you received a letter or email requiring that you pay immediately or face a Board hearing?

  • Have you dropped off your payment on time to the HOA office and afterwards been told that your payments late?

  • Did you know that the Board has changed it's policy and now ignores the postmark and only considers the date that your payment arrives?

  • Do you feel comfortable giving the HOA direct access to your personal accounts as an alternative to paying by check or through your banks payment service?

  • Have you been able to setup your bank’s bill payment service to only send payments electronically to avoid a mailed checks that could arrive late?

The Blog would like to hear your thoughts.
