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.

The condo association may file a lien against your condo unit. If you still don't pay the dues you owe, the condo association may sue you to foreclose on your condo.

I highly recommend working out a payment plan with the association, if possible.

When you don't pay your assessments, essentially you ask your neighbors to pay your bills.

It depends on the specific circumstances and the terms outlined in the condo association's bylaws or governing documents.
