Occasionally, we receive an inquiry about alternative methods to pay the association dues. There are three ways to pay your assessment:
1. You can forward a check or money order for your dues assessment as they come due or for the year in advance. Simply forward a check or money order with your last name as well as your Unit ID on the face of it. We will apply it appropriately. Your check should be payable to your association and mailed to:
c/o RCS Mgmt Pymt. Proc. Ctr.
PO Box 65253
Phoenix, AZ 85082-5253
2. You can pay your dues using the CIT Bank website (https://propertypay.firstcitizens.com/ – look for the “Pay Assessments" link or similar). Funds will be directly deposited to the Association’s bank account. There are two options available on the website; please have your payment coupon available when you log on:
a. Pay using e-Check by clicking the link. This option allows a payment to be debited from your checking account. NOTE: There is a nominal administrative charge by First Citizens Bank for this service; Your bank may charge you a service fee as well;
b. Pay using a credit card by clicking the link.This allows a payment to be debited from the credit card account you enter. NOTE: First Citizens Bank charges for this credit card use convenience.
Note: You can establish a user account at the website and schedule periodic payments on your own. The system can make your periodic payments on a schedule you establish. If you schedule these payments using e-check, there will be no additional administrative charges on those scheduled payments.
3. You can enroll in the automated ACH debit program. This ACH debit program is also deposited DIRECTLY to the Association’s bank account. This payment method takes the burden from you as the homeowner. You can rest assured that your payment has been drawn automatically. You will never see a late fee or delinquency notices related to an unpaid assessment. You will not see a statement each assessment period. Yes, that is one less piece of mail… Simply complete the form below (or here: http://www.rcsmanagement.org/images/ACH_authorization_Form.pdf) and return it with a voided check and the current assessment coupon to have your enrollment cover your current dues payment. After that, the dues payment will be drawn from your account between the 5 th and 10 th day of each assessment period.
RCS Management and your Board of Directors want to give you options that may make your community living experience a little easier…a little less complicated…a little simpler. Please feel free to use any of these three options. The choice is truly yours.
Should you have further questions, please feel free to contact Rod Strawderman in the office (703-778-7271 or rod@rcsmanagement.org).
