ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COMMUNITY RULES AND REGULATIONS: Prior to admission to this community, each new resident must sign and acknowledge that they have received and read a copy of the community rules and regulations as set forth herein and any amendments thereto. All terms and conditions of the Lease. Agreement is specifically incorporated herein and residents, whether they have accepted or declined to sign the written lease, must comply with such terms and conditions as well as the Rules and Regulations. Residents agree that they, as well as other occupants residing in their home and all guests, will abide by the community rules and regulations and all commonwealth, county, and city/township laws and ordinances. Failure to comply with the Rules and Regulations or other laws may result in the termination of tenancy as provided by law.
AMENDMENTS: From time to time, rules and regulations may be changed or additional rules may be added. Prior to the implementation of a new rule or regulation, a thirty-(30) day notice for the proposed change will be forwarded to residents. New or amended rules or regulations will be effective thirty (30) days after delivery and/or posting. Any new or amended rules or regulations will be considered a part of the Rules and Regulations and will be enforced accordingly.
ENFORCEMENT OF RULES AND REGULATIONS: Every effort will be made by management to ensure that these rules and regulations are enforced and that the quiet enjoyment and comfort of all residents is not disturbed. Ignorance of a rule or regulation cannot be accepted as an excuse.
NOTICE OF RULE VIOLATION: Management will contact residents who violate a rule or regulation either by a personal visit, a telephone call or issuance of a written warning. If a violation notice is issued, it is expected that the violation will be corrected by the date stated on the warning. Failure or refusal to correct a compliance with the rules and regulations is absolutely unacceptable and could be cause for termination of tenancy. Compliance is essential to provide you and your neighbor’s pleasant and peaceful living environment.
PAYMENTS OF RENT/FAILURE TO PAY RENT: Rents are to be paid monthly. Rent is due on the 1st day of the month or as established in your lease and must be paid within 5 days of this due date. You will receive a monthly invoice via email for rent due and will clearly state the due date. If for any reason you do not receive an invoice by the 1st of the month, it is YOUR responsibility to either obtain the payment information from the management office or simply make the payment to ensure that your payment is received by the due date. Not receiving your statement will never be an acceptable excuse for late or missed payments. A late/liquidated damage charge of 5% or $15 (whichever is higher) will be assessed to all residents whose rent is not received by management within 5 days of your due date in accordance with law. Failure to pay rent and late charges in full by the fifth (5th) day after your due date will result in a five (5) day notice to pay or quit. Payment of rent may be made through the website portal, cash app, personal check, money order, certified check or cashier’s check if paying prior to the five (5) day grace period. After the grace period has lapsed, payments must be made by certified funds. For safety purposes and to protect both resident and landlord, cash will not be accepted under any circumstances. Only canceled checks and money order copies will be honored in payment disputes. Disputes involving cash will not be considered. A charge of $35.00 will be assessed to any resident whose personal check is not honored for any reason, a late fee will also incur if outside of the 5 day grace period. If a check is not honored twice within a 12 month period, personal checks will not be accepted on the account for a period of twelve (12) months. At the expiration of the twelve (12) months period, if the resident has paid all rent and other charges on a timely basis during that period, management will once again accept the payment of rent by personal check.
If there is a balance on your account, all monies received will be applied to the oldest balance first before any current charges are credited. All fines and late fees are treated as lot rents and are due and payable in full no later than the next scheduled payment date. If fine or late payment amounts are not included with the next scheduled payment, the payment will be considered to be a partial rent payment, thus making your payment late and accruing a late charge, court and attorney fees as applicable by law.
LATE FEES: All rents are due and payable on the 1st day of the month or the date as agreed upon in your lease and considered LATE if received the fifth day after this date. A late fee of 5% of the monthly lot rent or $15 (whichever is higher) will be charged on any payment not received and posted to your account before the next due date. If the fifth falls on a weekend or holiday, the payment must be received on the next business day that follows to avoid a late fee. Land Lease Community Management is not responsible for delays in mail delivery. If you are concerned that your payment will not be received by the fifth day of the month, you can always send your payment via the U.S. Mail’s Express Mail or Priority Mail, or simply utilize the website portal to make an immediate payment.
IF THERE IS A BALANCE ON YOUR ACCOUNT, ALL PAYMENTS RECEIVED WILL BE APPLIED TO THE OLDEST BALANCE FIRST PRIOR TO ANY MONIES BEING APPLIED TO THE CURRENT BALANCE.
RETURNED CHECK FEES: A late fee of 5% of the monthly lot rent or $15 (whichever is higher) will be charged when a check is returned by the bank, for any reason. In addition, a returned check charge of $35.00 will also be charged as applicable by law. If a resident has two returned checks within a 12 month period, all future payments must be made by the website portal, money order or certified funds only.
UTILITIES: Payments of resident’s water and other applicable utility charges from the previous month will be due, without demand, on the first day of each month or the date as agreed upon in your lease. Utility charges will be billed with monthly rent charges.
