Check the property, not just the neighbourhood.
No individual title, account balance or household access is certified here. A maintenance boundary, nearby amenity or condo fee does not settle those questions.

02 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Which properties and households participate?
Title-linked obligation
Association-reported encumbrance. Match the legal lot to the registered document and account; no independent parcel audit is available here.
Property coverage
Exact parcel coverage and any added lands remain under review.
Registered owners
The amended bylaws tie membership to qualifying ownership. Obtain the legal lot and membership class; co-ownership does not create unlimited votes.
Tenants: independent owner membership
Leasehold alone does not satisfy the bylaws' ownership qualification. This does not prohibit use of public paths; event eligibility needs its own terms.
Multifamily and condominium properties
Bylaws distinguish subdivided ownership from multifamily land. Confirm who is billed and how any HOA amount relates to condominium expenses; do not divide the budget's revenue line into a per-unit fee.
03 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
What the association does
Services and assets
Maintains entry features, selected lighting, the pond pump, some landscaping and public-facing fencing. · Funds administration, a community-event contribution and reserves for future capital work.
04 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Amenities and access
Entry features and selected landscape care
Access: public. Fee funding: reported.
Fountain equipment and selected pathway lighting
Maintenance of equipment beside a storm pond does not establish recreational lake access.
05 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Rules and responsibilities
Check which fence surface and repair are covered
The 2023 guidelines distinguish public-facing routine care from owner-facing work and major repairs on private-property fencing. Ask Core to confirm the current allocation for the actual fence.
Use the guidelines for the property's phase
The document library separates encumbrances and design guidelines by phase. Obtain the applicable version and any later approval records before changing the exterior, fence or landscaping.
Solar requires a property-specific review
The FAQ directs owners to Town restrictions and the applicable architectural guidelines. It does not establish blanket approval for a proposed installation.
Creating a portal login does not link the property
Core must associate the Ivrnet profile with the property. If no invoice appears, request account linking and a statement rather than assuming nothing is due.
Community centre is a future plan
Melcor describes a proposed centre with indoor meeting space and outdoor recreation. No opening date or operating access policy is verified here; it is excluded from the current amenity inventory.
Confirm the multifamily assessment directly
The 2026 budget's printed acreage multiplied by its rate does not equal the reported multifamily total. This site does not correct the source or derive a per-unit charge. Request the applicable invoice and calculation.
06 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
What is separate or excluded
Not part of this service
The 2023 allocation assigns the storm pond itself, paths and most surrounding public assets to the Town. · Road and sidewalk responsibility depends on development handover; the HOA does not replace municipal services.
08 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Title and governance
Encumbrance
The HOA reports mandatory annual fees secured on title. The library contains phase-specific instruments; verify the registration for the legal lot. Property-specific registered instrument
Governance and control
The 2026–2027 roster lists four Melcor directors and three resident directors.
