Monthly Assessment

Assessments are the funds paid by the association owners to operate the community.

Your assessment pays for all of the operation costs of your community, which are outlined in your association’s annual operating budget.

Your assessment is due in accordance with your association’s governing documents and rules and regulations.

There are several options to pay your monthly assessment. You may:

  • Authorize Comsource to utilize a direct debit from your bank account.
  • Use your bank’s bill pay options.
  • Send a check or money order with a payment coupon.
  • Make a payment with a credit card.

If your assessment payment is late, your association will follow the procedure that is outlined in its governing documents and statutes to address and pursue any outstanding fees.

Each year, the association’s board of directors will adopt the operating budget that your assessment is based on. This budget determines the amount of your assessment and whether or not it increases.

Community Living

Your association is governed by a board of directors. You may direct any concerns about the association in writing to your community manager at Comsource, who will then submit the information to your association’s board.

Any modification to the exterior (and some interior modifications) of your property will require approval by the board of directors or an architectural review committee. Your community manager can assist you in obtaining the appropriate application to complete and submit for approval.

You may obtain the necessary documents for the resale of your property by going to www.homewisedocs.com​and ordering a “Resale Package.” You will need your association’s name and your address to complete this process.

You may submit a maintenance request through your association’s SourceLink portal.

If you have any questions concerning your community, you may direct them to your community manager.

Community Management

You may reach your community manager by telephone at the Comsource office, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. You may also email your community manager directly or send a message through SourceLink.

Anything that is a threat to life or property is considered an emergency. If you feel that there is an emergency to report after hours, simply call the Comsource main number at (301) 924-7355 and follow the voice prompts to access our 24-hour answering service.

Any properly licensed and insured contractor is eligible to perform services at your property.

Comsource’s office is open Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

HOA

Your association's board of directors is typically elected at the annual meeting and always in accordance with the governing documents of your association.

Association bylaws and rules exist to provide governance of the association’s common elements and to allow for the harmonious regulation of activities within the community.

Your association’s governing documents and rules and regulations were given to you when you joined the community—most often at the time of purchase. They are also available for your review on your association’s SourceLink page.

CC&R stands for Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. This document is also referred to as the Declaration of Covenants. This is a document recorded in the county land records where your association is located and is the contract that binds you to the association’s regulations.

You may contact your board of directors through your community manager.

To place an item on the board’s meeting agenda, submit the information in writing to your community manager who will then direct it to the secretary of the board.
