TREASURER’S REPORT – KEY ITEMS REPORTED ON 5 DECEMBER 2017

Bank Accounts
·         As of the end of November, we are under our operating budget by a little over $10K, and expect to meet our budget by the end of the year
·         We completed the transfer of our reserves account to Fidelity and purchased 4 CDs that will become mature on 6-month intervals.
·         The Fidelity account and the CD purchases were made to maximize interest accrual compared to other CD investment options.

Delinquencies
·         The biggest issue we have with our finances is the number of homeowners whose fee are delinquent by over 60 days.
·         The total dollar amount of delinquencies over 60 days is $4,058.49, and over 90 days is $3,230.49.
·         Three homeowners each have delinquent payments greater than $1,200.
·         Our fee collections and lien policy was provided in your 2017 annual disclosures email.
·         Consistent with the CC&Rs and California Civil Code, we have issued pre-lien demand letters via certified mail for homeowners with fees that have delinquencies that are greater than 90 days old.
·         These pre-lien demand letters indicate that if payment is not received within 30 days of the date of the letter, the HOA will be recording a Notice of Delinquent Assessment Lien for the delinquent fees and additional legal fees up to $500.
·         When the delinquent fees are in excess of $1,800 or more than 12 months delinquent, we are allowed by law to initiate foreclosure proceedings.
