| 1. Unpaid Condo Fees: There are many reasons why owners get into arrears on condo fee payment. For some, it's temporary financial difficulty, which can happen to any of us. For others however, it's anger given dissatisfaction with the perception of how Property Management or The Board handles a problem of their concern; ergo, it is somehow believed that nonpayment of condo fees will motivate the The Association to be more responsive. The reality: Nonpayment of condo fees only hurts the causes of those who don't pay them, especially if their concern is for repairs covered by our emergency reserves or Master Policy, funded by ... guess what ... receipt of condo fees! Nonpayment hurts your neighbors as well. The costs for collection and legal actions on unpaid condo fees get passed to everyone through increased fees; i.e. we all pay for those who are either irresponsible or otherwise cannot remain up-to-date. On occasion, we also have to levy special assessments to compensate for budget deficits to effect emergency repair projects. If you're not paying your condo fees 'on purpose,' be assured you'll get more attention from The Association, but perhaps not the type of attention you desired. We all have to pitch in, be responsible; take care of ourselves and take care of each other. |
