What Happens When Owners Don’t Pay Their Levies?

Levy contributions aren’t optional extras – they’re the backbone of your Scheme’s financial health. When owners fall behind, the consequences go beyond the defaulter.

Unpaid levies can result in:

  • Cash flow strain, making it harder to pay for essential services like utilities, security, cleaning, and maintenance
  • Delayed projects and repairs due to unavailable funds
  • Increased pressure on compliant owners, who may need to absorb the shortfall

What actually happens when levies remain unpaid?

  • Interest may be charged, depending on the Scheme’s Resolutions
  • If mandated, a registered debt collector may issue reminders, arrears notices, and final demands
  • Legal handover follows if payment remains outstanding—this could include Judgment against you, blacklisting and the sale of your propert
  • CSOS referral – for an Adjudication Award granted against you

Don’t delay recovery processes –  early intervention is key.
