A Guide to Sending the New Notice of Late Assessment  By: K. Joy Mattingly, Esq.

A Guide to Sending the New Notice of Late Assessment

By: K. Joy Mattingly, Esq.

As of July,  associations are required to send delinquent owners a Notice of Late Assessments, giving the owners 30 days to bring the account current prior to turning the account over to the association’s legal counsel for collections.

Failure to provide the delinquent owner with this 30-day notice will preclude the association from recovering legal fees related to past due assessments, i.e., any fees incurred in a subsequent collection/foreclosure action.

The notice must be sent via first class United States mail to the owner’s last address as reflected in the association’s official records, and if the last address is not the property address, the notice must also be sent to the property address by first class United States mail. The notice is deemed delivered upon mailing and a rebuttable presumption that the notice was mailed as required can be established by a sworn affidavit executed by a board member, officer or agent of the association, or by a licensed manager.

A form for the 30-day notice, titled “Notice of Late Assessment” can be found in §§718.121, 719.108 and 720.3085, Fla. Stat.

While the statutory instructions for the Notice of Late Assessment may appear to be straight-forward and easy to follow, there are several ways that the process can go awry. These missteps can result in an association having to send out a new Notice of Late Assessment, further delaying the collections and foreclosure process and adding to the association’s workload and frustration. But fear not! An association can avoid pitfalls in the process by incorporating the following best practices when drafting and sending the Notice of Late Assessment.

First, when detailing the delinquency in the Notice, the assessments, interest and late fees owed should be broken out rather than listed as a lump sum.

If there are other amounts owed, such as fines, these should be listed separately from the monthly or quarterly assessments. Late fees (if applicable) and interest should be listed below the monthly or quarterly assessments and the annual rate of interest should be detailed as well.

Second, when sending the Notice of Late Assessment, the association should check the county property appraiser’s website and the current deed for additional mailing addresses for the owner. While the statute requires the association to send the notice to the property address and the last address “as reflected in the association’s records”, there is always the possibility that the association’s records have not been properly updated or maintained to include additional addresses. Taking a few minutes to conduct this search at the beginning of the process can eliminate the possibility of an owner subsequently arguing that the association failed to send the notice to a relevant address. If the owner is successful in this argument, the association will be precluded from collecting the subsequent legal fees incurred in the collections/foreclosure process.

Third, the association should keep a copy of each Notice of Late Assessment sent to an owner as part of the association’s records. This will enable the association to provide the copy in support of the association’s sworn affidavit that the notice was mailed to the owner, should the owner subsequently dispute that the notice was provided.

In addition to following the best practices detailed above, the association should consult with its legal counsel to confirm that the association’s collections policy, practices and procedures are in conformance with the applicable statutory requirements.

Brighten Your Business: How Commercial LED Lighting Boosts Productivity and Sales

The lighting in your business space does more than just brighten up the area; it can have a profound impact on productivity and sales. As businesses strive to create optimal working environments and enticing shopping experiences, commercial LED lighting has emerged as a game-changer. In this blog, we’ll explore the powerful ways in which LED lighting can elevate your business, enhancing both productivity among your employees and customer satisfaction, ultimately leading to increased sales.

A well-lit workspace is vital for employee productivity and well-being. Studies have consistently shown that commercial LED lighting can positively influence concentration, focus, and overall mood among workers. The bright, uniform illumination provided by LEDs reduces eye strain and fatigue, leading to improved performance and reduced errors. With LEDs, your team will feel more comfortable and motivated, leading to increased efficiency and productivity that directly impacts your business’s bottom line.

  • Focused Lighting Solutions:

One of the key advantages of commercial LED lighting is its versatility. LED technology allows for focused lighting solutions, meaning you can highlight specific areas or products in retail spaces. Whether it’s accentuating merchandise in a store or illuminating important workstations in an office, LEDs provide the flexibility needed to create the perfect ambiance for each section of your business. By directing attention to critical areas, you can guide customers to key products, driving sales and optimizing their overall shopping experience.

  • Vibrant and Inviting Spaces:

First impressions matter, and your business’s lighting sets the tone for customers’ overall experience. Commercial LED lighting offers a range of color temperatures and intensity levels that can be tailored to match your brand’s personality and image. Whether you want to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere in a restaurant or a bright and energetic vibe in a retail store, LED lighting can be customized to suit your specific needs. A vibrant and inviting space will leave a lasting impression on customers, encouraging them to return and recommend your business to others.

  • Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings:

Beyond boosting productivity and sales, commercial LED lighting also presents significant cost-saving opportunities. LEDs are known for their energy efficiency, consuming up to 75% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs. This reduction in energy usage translates to lower electricity bills, freeing up financial resources that can be reinvested in other aspects of your business. Additionally, LEDs have a longer lifespan, reducing the need for frequent replacements and maintenance costs.

As you strive to create a thriving business environment, don’t overlook the power of commercial LED lighting. The benefits extend far beyond just lighting up your space; they enhance productivity, elevate customer experiences, and contribute to cost savings. Embrace the versatility and efficiency of commercial LED lighting to brighten your business, boost employee morale, and entice customers into a captivating shopping journey. With the right lighting strategy, your business will shine brightly and enjoy the rewards of increased productivity and sales.
