 ASSESSMENT BILLING SYSTEM
Community Management Services recognizes the importance of the timely collection of monthly homeowner assessment payments. These monthly assessments provide the operating capital required each month to pay for the ongoing maintenance and operation of the property. To help ensure the timely payment of these important assessments, CMS mails a monthly billing statement to every homeowner in your association.

Over thirty (30) years of experience has proven that this method is far more effective than coupons. Owners receive a reminder each month of their obligation to pay assessments on a timely basis. Billing also affords the association the opportunity to improve communications with the owners by including community newsletters and important notices with the monthly statement.

To achieve the highest quality billing service available, and to ensure full accountability to the association and Board of Directors, CMS maintains an in-house billing system. The billing and assessment collections needs of community associations are unique, and "canned" programs are not well equipped to handle the wide variety of special assessment options, fines billings, due dates imposed by state law, etc. CMS continually evaluates and updates the assessment billing program to provide the best possible assessment collection services to our client associations.
