Read your governing documents to determine what rights you lose if you do not pay your assessments -- if any.

Your governing documents are based on Texas State Law that covers associations.

If your governing documents are 'silent' on this matter, the state law applies.

Best practices dictate that you pay your assessments, to remain in good standing as a property owner.
