When I sell or rent my unit what is
required by the Association?
If you are selling:
You are required by the Association to obtain a re-sale certificate. This certificate must be signed at your closing and provides details such as what the purchaser owes versus the owner. It also tells you where to send your closing paper work. You may obtain this information by going to: wentworthmgt.com, click on the red box that states Resale & Financing and then follow the instructions.
If you are renting:
You are required according to the By-laws to have a minimum 6-month lease. All leases must be on file with the Association office and you must provide phone numbers for the homeowner and tenant
Who decides what landscaping is planted
and where it is planted?
The Board of Trustees makes all
decisions regarding the community. Each year
the Board of Trustees conducts a site inspection with the landscaper. A list is compiled and presented to the Board of
Trustees at their regular monthly meeting.
The Board of Trustees will then review
that list. Based on what is evaluated, (if an
area looks like it needs plantings or if plantings are dying) and if the budget allows,
the Board will take a vote at a regular Board of Trustees meeting. If it were approved by a unanimous vote the
plantings would be installed.
If there is a draught such as this
summer, the Board of Trustees may opt not to plant since the Township of Mahwah will not
let us water at all.
If I want to request additional
landscaping in my area what should I do?
If a unit owner requests plantings they
must send a letter to the Board of Trustees for review.
The Board of Trustees will then take a vote at a regular Board of Trustees
meeting. If it were approved by a unanimous
vote the plantings would be installed.
If plants are dead or I do not want the
plants that are currently planted can I remove them?
If a plant is dead and the unit owner
notifies the Management Office, the Association can remove the dead plant, but it is not
guaranteed to be replaced.
If a homeowner wants the Association to
remove plants in their area, they must write to the Board of Trustees for review and
receive their permission.
What to do in case of an emergency?
First, if you are experiencing a leak from above your unit, first thing you should do is check with the unit above you. For true emergencies regarding association matters call Wentworth’s Emergency Service at 866-433-2978. If the situation is a life threatening please call 911.
