On October 1, 2021, USPS announced changes to service standards for certain First-Class Mail items, resulting in extended delivery times—sometimes up to five days. As such, some mailed payments have been received late, causing account delinquency and additional fees.
To avoid these issues, we're advising all residents to plan for a 21-day transit time when mailing payments. We're also offering three alternative payment methods as a solution:
- ACH/Direct Debit
- One-time or recurring online payments through TownSq
- Electronic billing through your financial institution
Note: There is a fee for making a payment online. That fee is detailed for you when you go through the payment process.If you need further assistance, please contact Associa Customer Support at 888-397-9210.

Please see the attached Direct Debit form. All instructions are listed on the form, and a voided check is required for Direct Debit activation.
In order for the funds to be pulled in time for next month's assessment, this form must be received no later than the 20th of the prior month.
The automatic payment process will begin with your next assessment period once we have received your completed form and either your voided check or a letter from the bank that includes your full account number and routing number.
The direct debit will not pull any past due funds. Those must be paid in full. Direct debit will only pull the actual assessment amount for your HOA fees.
To prepare for your next payment, please note the following:
Direct Debit will be activated on the next billing cycle.
Current balance payments must be submitted manually by check/money order, in-person, or online via the TownSq website or mobile app.
