You can read your governing documents to find the answer you want.

Condominium assessments that owners pay are spent to cover communal costs, such as sewer and water, garbage and recycle collection, master insurance policy premiums, landscaping vendors, property management fees and so forth.


Owners who do not pay their assessments or do not pay them on time are failing to live up to their agreement, which they signed when they purchased the condominium unit. When their neighbors pay on time and in full, non-paying or late-paying owners can be said to be 'living on the backs of their neighbors'.


Look in your governing documents for the rights of the board to pursue unpaid or tardy assessments. These rights might include filing a fine, a formal lien -- assessments may be an automatic lien -- in a court, or foreclosing the unit to satisfy the unpaid debt.


In US, there may be privacy laws that could prevent an owner's name from appearing on the bulletin board of tardy assessment payers, but it is possible that the unit number could be displayed. The unit number may be published by the treasurer in the financial reports distributed to all owners.


In some countries, Japan for example, tardy assessment payers' names and unit numbers are posted on the bulletin boards, and the prevailing Japanese culture of shame motivates owners to pay their assessments.

How do you file a lien for past due condominium fees?

Condominium owners pay assessments in order for the association to operate the community. Boards must collect assessments, and when they are not paid, the board can file a lien for the amount due, against the title of the non-paying owner. Best practices dictate that this is an action for association counsel, since a poorly formed or improperly formed, or poorly or improperly filed lien, gives the debtor an almost automatic out of the debt.
