Use when a homeowner has missed one or more assessment payments and this is the FIRST written contact. Keep it friendly: assume a misdirected payment, thank them if they have already paid, and offer help if there is an issue. This is the Day 0-7 courtesy stage - no late fees, no threats.
Use when the friendly reminder produced no payment (or a partial one). This is the Day 14-21 past-due stage: restate the balance, name the late-fee policy, and set a firm deadline that matches your collection policy and governing documents.
