Pennsylvania Community Associations: Careful of Short Statute of Limitations!


Pennsylvania Statute of Limitations - Assessed Fees of Planned Communities

A Statute of Limitations is a rule mandated by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania which defines limits to the amount of thime in which a suit can be filed.

68 Pa C.S.A. ~5315(e) explains that the statute of limitations for actions with respect to assessed fees collected by Planned Communities is limited to three years from the date the assessment becomes payable.

This rule differs from some other types of contract actions to collect debts where the statute of limitations is four years.
