Cobblefield Point Owners and Residents
We are changing property management companies as of August 1, 2024.
Our contract with Coldwell Banker Commercial Devonshire Realty (CBCDR) will end July 31st, and our contract with our new management company will begin August 1.
Our new property managers are Facility Managers, Inc. (FMI).
https://facilitymanagersinc.com
Dave Kelton and his son, Nate Kelton, own and operate FMI and have been in town and operating for over 25 years.
They currently manage 16 other condo associations as well as other types of properties.
They also live in southwest Champaign, meaning they are close and able to be at our property often, and that they have a vested interest in keeping our area safe and well-maintained.
You will be receiving a formal introductory email from FMI soon. They will also be letting you know how to pay your dues.
Please note that we will no longer be using AppFolio and instead will be using Rent Manager.
You will receive an email from FMI with your account number later this week. You will not be able to register for Rent Manager until you receive your account number.
*Your August 1st dues will need to be paid to FMI/Rent Manager and not CBCDR/AppFolio.*
We understand this is short notice and that there may be some hiccups along the way in regards to payment being transferred. Please let us know if you are encountering difficulties.
Renters – please continue to pay your landlord in the same way you have been.
For any maintenance requests, please send to the board directly for the time being: [email protected]
We thank you for your patience and understanding during this transition.
As always, please let us know if you have any questions.
AppFolio Transaction Fee Notice
Our online payment portal, AppFolio, has instated a transaction fee (without prior notice) for e-checks. A transaction fee was already in place for payment by credit card.
Paying online now includes a $2.49 transaction fee to pay by credit card or by e-check. The HOA will be reimbursing August’s (2023) transaction fee to everyone who paid online since there was no notice. However, everyone will be responsible for the fee for September 2023 and on. The HOA board is looking into other online portals without e-check fees.
You can still make payments by check without a fee.

HOA Fee Increase & 2018 Annual Election Results
At the annual meeting held on May 31, 2018, the Board voted to increase the monthly HOA fees to $200.00 beginning August 1, 2018. This increase is needed as there are a number of future maintenance upkeep and repairs that will be needed. The Board felt that a small monthly increase would be better than another special assessment that could be higher than the $2,000.00 incurred in 2015.
Additionally please be aware of the following updated/changed policy items to the Rules and Regulations:
- Swimming Pool Policy (Page 7): No more than 4 guests are allowed from any one unit, unless cleared through the Board in advance. Owners or residents are responsible for their guests.
- Pets (Page 9): No animals shall be permitted except for one (1) four-legged domesticated animal not to exceed forty (40) pounds. Current residents with two animals will be grandfathered in; however, future residents will be held to this policy. Reptiles of any type are not allowed.
- Pets (Page 9): Per City of Champaign Ordinance all animals must be kept on a leash in the common and public areas at all times.
- Parking (Page 8): No campers, boats, trailers, or trucks shall be parked outside on the property and no more than two (2) automobiles shall be kept or stored. Parking on the street is not permitted.
- Cable or Dishes (Page 3): All cable lines must run inside of the condo – no lines or lines for holes may be cut or draped on the exterior of the building. Dishes cannot be attached to the balcony railings by bolts or screws.
- Limited Elements Usage (Page 4). Residents may not have a garden or a compost pile in the limited common areas.
