As of March 1st, the statement printing and mailing fee will increase to $2, consistent with the approved PTCA Budget for the 2022/2023 fiscal year.

ORIGINAL POST

Most Owners are still receiving a paper statement in the mail, and subsidizing the paper and postage with that the pesky $1/month charge.

HOWEVER, as of July about 338 Owners have signed up for e-statements. So, almost a ream of paper each month and just over $150 a month is saved on postage.

As a reminder, this was passed by the Board as a part of the 2021/2022 budget, to assign the expense related to printing and mailing statements to those who still need them.

Based on some of the inquiries we’ve received, management suspects a lot of more Owners would like to receive e-statements rather than deal with the $1 charge. It remains up to you! See the original post below. Unfortunately, we cannot set up your e-statement account. This is managed through an online archive app which requires you to register and set up your own login and password.

However, there are several advantages to this. Not only will you be e-mailed your statement each month, you will receive them soon after their generated rather than having to wait for them to arrive in the mail.

ALSO – for those of you who like to keep a record of your transactions, you will be able to access an archive of past statements.

ORIGINAL POST February 20th:

Beginning March 1st, as announced with the notice to Owners regarding the 2021/2022 Budget (2021 Budget Notice), Owners who continue to wish to receive paper statements, will be charged a $1 fee for printing and postage.

So, with specific regard to e-statements:

Q: How do I register for E-statements?

A: Toward the upper right hand corner of the attached sample statement you will see a message, “To receive future statements electronically visit https://www.estmt.net.” Just below that is says “Your Registration ID: ####-####-####”. Owners should see this as well on their own monthly statements. If you have a problem locating this, please send us an e-mail at parktowercondo-mgmt@habitat.com, and someone from our team will follow up with you.

The https://www.estmt.net link takes you to the online app Habitat has for Owners to set up and manage e-statements. Once you are there the first time, toward the lower half of the page you will see where it indicates you can “Create An Account”. Here you will enter the “Registration ID” and follow the prompts to set up your e-statement account.

AND WHY STOP THERE…make payments online or sign up for direct debit, view past statements, and do more electronically!

You can get instructions about registering for e-statements, making payments online, direct debit, and other information, at the following link for our PTCA Payment Options FAQ originally posted last year as the transition to the Habitat Company was underway. Most of the specific details and instructions remain consistent:

Of course, anytime you have a question, feel free to e-mail us at parktowercondo-mgmt@habitat.com.
