3-Owner’s Roster, Condo Budget & Assessments

An Owner’s Roster is continually updated and maintained by the Disharoon Ridge Unit Owners (DRUO) Association Board Members. When the title is transferred from a previous owner to a new one because of a sale, this list is updated.  A copy of the complete current Owner’s Roster with the most current information can be requested from a Board Member at any time by legitimate unit owners only.

EXPLANATION OF YOUR LOT NUMBER
Generally, your lot number is your unit number.  If you own a unit with a B behind the unit number, your lot number is configured differently and has the number “10” inserted before the unit number.  The “B” is dropped.
For example, if your unit number is 431B, your lot number will be 10431.

CONDO ASSESSMENTS:
Condo assessments are paid to the DRUO Board in addition to your POA assessments. Generally, these assessments cover the costs of the following general categories:

  • Administration
  • Exterior Maintenance (except as noted below)#
  • Ground Maintenance
  • Fire and hazard insurance *
  • Exterior Maintenance Reserve Fund

* Condo assessments do include payment for building fire and hazard insurance however, owners must provide their own interior and content insurance.  And please be mindful that the Condo Insurance has a $5000 deductible limitation which you can arrange to cover with your own private insurance. 

Assessments are due on the 1st of every month.  Late or non payment of condo assessments results in penalties and interest on those penalties.  When received late, a Penalty of 10% and Interest of 1.5% monthly is added to the amount due.  In extreme cases a lien may be levied.

Explanation of Monthly Assessments

  • The Declaration 4.02 requires a budget to be established and assessments levied annually to cover projected costs.
  • Annual payments are possible and appreciated but discounts are not available for payments in advance.
  • Condo owners must contribute assessment fees developed by the legal founders of our governing documents and is based on an algorithm.  This is a fractional 3 decimal value based on the ratio of each units size relative to the total condominium square footage of all units in the condominium.  This weighted percentage is used to equitably pay for building maintenance, repairs, roofing, garbage removal, and electric service and upkeep of the common area which we all share. If you have a small unit, your assessments are less, and conversely, if your unit is large, you will pay more.  

Condo Assessment Fees for 2024 are the same as 2023
