Best Answer

The association works with the association's counsel to pick a style of lien and file it. An improper lien or one that is not filed properly gives the owner an out.

As well, be prepared to present the attorney with evidence that the association has exhausted all other means available in order to collect the past due amounts.

A Condo association purchases coverage for parts of the property that are commonly owned by the people who own Condos in the development.

What happens if a resident can not pay a condo association assesment?

If a condo resident can't pay an association assessment, the repercussions can vary depending on the bylaws of the association and state laws. Typically, the association might first reach out to the resident to discuss payment arrangements. If the resident continuously fails to make payments, the association may resort to more serious actions, from charging late fees and interest, to placing a lien on the property, or even pursuing a foreclosure. The key is early, open communication to prevent things from escalating. Address the issue as early as possible to find a solution. I've seen similar situations in buildings we managed at Daisy and what worked best was proactive communication and working out a reasonable payment plan.

In case the mortgage balance is substantially higher than the market value of a Florida Condo does it even make sense for an association to file a lien for unpaid dues?

It all depends. If the governing documents for the association and state law indicate that assessments -- you call them dues -- are automatically liens against the title, and have a priority position ahead of any mortgage lender, then filing a lien means that the unpaid assessments can be paid first from any proceeds of sale.
