what happens if I do not pay Condo fees ?
Posted by: john b ()

I am self employed and sales are WAY down... late on Condo fees by $500
about 1.5 monthly payments. The Association turned it over to lawyers who
accelerated the payments through then end of the year and tacked on
$900 in Legal Fees... My question is what can they do ? Part of the Legal
Fees is Record a Lien another part is Prepare Suit.

I will try to pay, but what if I can't ? We own the property.
Will they take us to Court and get a Judgement or something
more... I am very worried.

Thank you all very much.

Lien is recorded on deed.
When you sell/refinance it needs to be paid off.
Wait until place is under contract than propose a settlement for 50% to condo assoc.

You need to check your condo docs to see what your community's rules provide for in the event of a delinquent condo fee account.

My condo community takes away all community privileges once an account is 90 days in arrears. Once you are at 90 days your keyfob is deactivated such that you only have access to the front door. You are locked out of the rear terrace, the swimming pool, the gym and all meeting/party rooms. We issue parking stickers quarterly and no accounts that are 90+ are issued new stickers which means as a delinquent account you are unable to park on the property or your vehicle will be towed. Guest parking privileges are also suspended for accounts 90+ in arrears.

Our total delinquencies are usually about 2% with most accounts seldom aging further beyond 12 months. Most of our delenquencies are due to an owner's death and the property is for sale by the deceased's trust. Once the property is sold, the trust brings the delinquent account current, zeroing it out, the account is closed and a new account is opened on the unit in he new owner's name. We have never had to take an owner to court over delenquencies.

No settling for you asshole, we end up paying the difference. Pay it off when you sell and be done with it.

Go to CVS
Purchase 1 tube of KY & 1 large syringe.
Take plunger from syringe.
Take tube of KY from box.
Take off cap.
Place finger over narrower opening of syringe.
Empty as much of the tube of KY into syringe as you can without filling the syringe.
CAREFULLY place plunger into syringe without letting any KY escape from the narrow opening.
Go to condo office.
Drop 'em.
Bend over.
Place a small amount of KY on outside of syringe near narrow opening.
Insert syringe in bunghole.
Push plunger all the way in.
Remove syringe from asshole.
Stay bent over until condo assoc. official is done with you.


Be glad at least you didn't have to take it raw & dry.


TL/DR: You're screwed, Bubb-O!

Probably not a good idea.

The lien probably has priority, so, condo assoc says "no" to slick guy saying, hey, this thing is under contract, let's cut a deal.

Priority lien holder gets paid first out of proceeds of sale...

So...

The problem is all the extra fees they may try to levy on you , go tell them your issue, make arrangements to make some payments and catch up later when you start making more cash and that's a whole lot better then just letting it go with no payments at all . Really all they want is the money to keep up the public areas

In fact, you may already have been a negro before you failed to pay.

If you have an extra bedroom in the condo, advertise for a paying roommate on Craig's List. Their rent should more than cover your bills until you get work again. Meanwhile you might want to look into temp jobs "with the man" instead of self employment until you find sales work entailing something that actually is needed by everyone that will sell.

There are many people on short-term work/training contracts in the WDC area that would be happy paying 650-750/mo for a temporary furnished room instead of $200/night for a hotel.

Having a lien might hurt when you try and sell your house...

You ever see the movie "Pacific Heights"?

When the bad guy was looking for houses to buy, he had one marked "too many liens"...

Even a shady mo-fo didn't want to deal with that.

People will probably ask themselves, if these people didn't pay condo fees, what other shady things are they doing.

Liens run against the property, and they are easy to know about.

It's not like it goes away when you sell it...if you can get the buyer to pay for them, more power to you.

But they will be a money part of the deal either way.

When you get home that night, all your shit will be on the curb. Sometimes, if you're nice about it, you can leave a note asking them to deposit your belongings under the nearest bridge or hiway over pass.

gerrymanderer2 (OP) posts several lies on ffu daily - many\.10think he's a fx co gov worker who is getting paid to do it for false DNC democrat "advertising". he floods ffu with useless posts to bump down major news, posts fecal matter, mutilated bodies, child porn, foreign drug ads and sneaker ads, tells people to kill themselves and government should seize them and put them on psych pills in prison - decided by democrat gov of course, promotes kangaroo courthouse trials, gives anti-religious rants, gives satanic ritual rants, posts black males with large dicks on white young females, portends white low birth rate and fall of USA, food tampering/poisoning, and anything possible to DEMORALIZE white people on ffu. (perhaps a chinese prisoner or isis member - but definitely knowledgeable of fx co gov from the inside at times). the website operator has told him "not to post or return" which are still posted - not removed, by the sysop: not because of a political leaning but for continual illegal and gross spam along with messages that are only to demoralize if not kill others. he/she plays at financial terrorism as well: continuall reporting false financial data, and fake emergency please from (fake members of the community he makes up)

IT IS ANOTHER FAKE QUESTION BY G2, WHO POSTS FAKE QUESTIONS THAT OTHER FFU USERS HAVE CALLED SPAM. G2 ANSWERS MOST OF THE QUESTION HIMSELF LOOGED IN AS SOMEONE ELSE TO (A) APPEAR SMART AND (B) ATTACK ANYONE WHO RESPONDS

Worth exactly what you paid for it.

Talk to the condo association or its management company and see if you can work something out. If they balk, tell them you will file for bankruptcy.

Good luck!
