Annual
Property Assessment
$395 per Property,
Due January 1st
The
Bylaws of the Spring Creek Court Homeowners Association,
Inc., require all homeowners to pay an annual property
assessment.
The
purpose of property assessments is to meet the HOA's
near- and long-term repair and replacement obligations.
The preservation of surplus funds allows the HOA to
meet known and unknown future capital expense initiatives
without the need for special assessments.
The
annual property assessment of $395.00 is due and payable
on January 1st of each calendar year. Property assessments
are applied to HOA operating expenses and the HOA capital
reserve fund. Individual homeowner-account statements
are mailed to all homeowners in the last quarter of
the year. Pay your annual assessment promptly to avoid
late-payment finance charges and possible legal (collection)
fees.

Penalties
for Paying Late, Paying "Short" or Not Paying
The
least expensive way to pay the $395 annual
property assessment is to pay-in-full, on time.
The
most expensive way to pay
the $395 annual property assessment
is
to pay after the collections attorney has been engaged.
HOMEOWNER
ALERT:
If
a homeowner has received a letter from the HOA's collections
attorney concerning late-payment, short-payment or
non-payment of the homeowner's annual property assessment,
the homeowner is liable for the annual property assesment
PLUS late-payment finance charges PLUS
all attorney's fees.
Added
together, and depending upon the attorney's time-effort
in resolving the case, a delinquent homeowner can
be liable for a final bill that is substantiallt
higher than the $395
annual
property assessment fee that is due on January 1st
each year. Avoid extra-cost penalties
by paying in full, on-time.
