What Does the Monthly HOA Fee Cover?

When owners purchase a property in St. Augustine Shores, they become an automatic member of the Homeowners Association. With that automatic membership comes the responsibility to pay a monthly HOA fee to the association for the length of time that they own the property. The association operates on a cash-pooled accounting system. All funds received throughout the year from different revenue sources are pooled together and used to cover the association’s expenses throughout the year. It’s important that every homeowner pays their HOA dues on time each month to ensure that the association can, in turn, pay the association bills on time.
