Please visit your HOA Portal, and submit a billing inquiry to connect with a manager and discuss payment plan options. They will work with you to get a payment plan set up that, if fully complied with, will enable you to avoid accumulation of costly late fees and penalties. If you do not follow the payment plan, your account will be in default. It is extremely important to keep in touch with your community manager if you have difficulties with the payments. The community manager can make notations within your record of any extenuating circumstances.
Association fees, sometimes referred to as Maintenance or Assessment fees are collected to maintain the common areas of your community. Normally this covers pool(s), playground(s), clubhouse, recreation center, shared driveways, and various utilities. Fees are also used for improvements, beautification, landscaping, and any other Owner services provided.
Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CCR’s) are also referred to as “deed restrictions”. Through this document you are contracted to adhere to a certain standard of maintenance and behavior within the community.
When you closed on your house with the title company, the title policy that you signed states that as a homeowner you are contractually obligated to comply with the deed restrictions. This agreement made between the homeowner and association is used to make sure that certain levels of standards are maintained regarding home maintenance, lot maintenance, prevention of nuisances, and overall protection of property values. Enforcement of the deed restrictions is essential as part of day to day business for the association.
You will receive a copy of your community CCR’s (deed restrictions) at closing. You may also visit the HOA portal to obtain a copy, or contact management to request a copy be emailed to you. To make a request to Beacon Residential Management, please use the Contact Us section.
