What about the HOA?
The Master HOA will cover all the elements associated with the overall community (condos & townhomes) while the condos (Phase 1) will be part of the Condo Owners’ Association HOA as well.
What are the HOA dues for Phase 2 and Phase 3 (Townhomes) and what do they cover?
The dues are due semi-annually and are budgeted to be $160/month for the Townhome Supplement and $240/month for the Master HOA. There is also a $55/month cable assessment for every condo and townhome in the community. So if you are calculating a monthly expense (even though it is paid semi-annually, this totals $455/month. This covers management fees, exterior maintenance of the Townhomes, exterior yard/landscaping maintenance of the common areas, common area maintenance, trash receptacles/removal, recreational amenity maintenance (pool, bathhouse, grills), quarterly pest treatment, street/parking area lights, water, sewer, stormwater management, basic cable, internet service, parking area maintenance, parking gate maintenance, liability insurance for the common areas.
What about Phase 2 & Phase 3 (Townhomes) insurance?
Each townhome will be assessed an initial annual insurance assessment of $1967 (estimated) for hazard insurance which will cover wind & hail but not flood. Village West is located in a Flood Zone X and therefore, does not require flood insurance. Flood insurance is optional per owner. Owners will take responsibility for their own contents and interior of their units through an HO6 policy. The first year of townhome insurance will be due at closing.
