YEARLY MAINTENANCE
Now that spring is right around the corner, it is time to perform annual fence, deck, and exterior home maintenance. Maintaining fences, decks and a home’s exterior plays such an important role in preserving the aesthetics of the community and the value of the homes.
Under the direction of your Community’s Board, the management company will be doing site visits the 2nd week of April 2024 to ensure that all properties are being maintained in accordance with your community’s guidelines. You will be notified by mail of any findings regarding your home or property and will have through Sunday July 7, 2024 to bring these maintenance items into compliance.
