How to Use the Homeowner Template

If you are a Sky Harbour homeowner dealing with a lien, collection demand, or other claimed HOA enforcement, this page shows you how to use the homeowner template letter.

This template is designed to give the HOA, the management company, and their counsel one final written demand to either:

• remove the lien or cloud on title, or

• produce the recorded proof they claim gives them authority

Read the steps below, customize the letter to your own lot and facts, and send it the right way.

 

Before You Start

 

What you will need

• the homeowner template PDF

• your lot / block / section information

• your mailing address

• the lien clerk document number, if known

• a printer

• envelopes

• certified mail service at the post office

Important

• Customize the letter to your own lot and facts before sending

• Do not send a letter with someone else’s property details still in it

• Keep copies of everything you send

• Mail each recipient separately

 

Step 1: Download the Template

Download the homeowner template and save a copy to your computer or phone before making any edits.

Use the blank fields in the template to add your own information.

 

Step 2: Fill In Your Lot Information

Complete the homeowner information fields at the top of the letter.

Fill in:

• the date

• your name

• your mailing address

• your property / lot / section

• the lien clerk document number, if known

If you do not know the lien document number yet, you can still use the letter. Just remove that line or note that it is unknown.

 

Step 3: Review and Customize the Letter

Before printing, read the entire letter and make sure it matches your situation.

Check that:

• your lot information is correct

• the lien information is correct

• the facts apply to your property

• nothing personal to another homeowner remains in the template

This letter is meant to be strong and direct, but it should still be accurate to your own lot.

 

Step 4: Print and Sign Your Copies

Print at least four copies of the completed letter.

You will need:

• one copy for Sky Harbour Homeowners Association

• one copy for Peter F. Bagley

• one copy for The Property Center

• one copy for your own records

Sign and date each mailed copy.

 

Step 5: Mail All Three by Certified Mail

Mail each copy separately by Certified Mail.

If you want delivery proof, request Return Receipt service as well.

Certified Mail helps create a paper trail showing:

• what you sent

• when you sent it

• who received it

• when it was delivered

 

Step 6: Mail to These Three Addresses

 

Sky Harbour Homeowners Association, Inc.

2707 Galaxy Street
Granbury, TX 76049

 

Peter F. Bagley, Registered Agent / Counsel

2304 W. Interstate 20, Suite 240
Arlington, TX 76017

 

The Property Center

Attn: Managing Broker / Compliance Officer
510 West Pearl St., Suite 100
Granbury, TX 76048

 

Mail each one in its own envelope.

 

Step 7: Keep Your Receipts and Copies

Do not throw anything away.

Keep:

• a copy of each signed letter

• your Certified Mail receipts

• your tracking numbers

• any Return Receipt cards or delivery confirmations

• any response you receive

You may need these later if the lien is not removed or if more enforcement activity happens.

 

Step 8: Start the 10-Business-Day Clock

The template gives the recipients 10 business days to either:

• remove the lien / cloud on title, or

• produce the recorded proof they claim gives them authority

Count the deadline from confirmed receipt, not just from the day you mailed it.

That is why tracking and delivery proof matter.

 

Step 9: Watch for One of Two Responses

A proper response should do one of these two things:

Option 1: Release the lien

They record a release, withdrawal, or expunction and send you proof.

Option 2: Produce recorded proof of authority

They identify, by exact Hood County recording reference:

• the instrument they claim continued the restrictions beyond January 1, 1990

• the instrument they claim transferred or succeeded lien / collection / foreclosure rights

• the instrument they claim authorizes the present management / agent / counsel structure

General references to bylaws, policy, custom, amendments, or board practices are not the same as recorded proof.

 

Step 10: Document Silence or Non-Answers

If they do not respond, or if they respond without giving actual recorded proof, keep that too.

Save:

• silence

• vague replies

• payment demands

• threats

• additional notices

• any new lien activity

A non-answer is still useful to document.

 

Step 11: Decide Your Next Move

If they do not release the lien or produce documented authority, move to the next step using the resources on this site.

That may include:

• complaint options

• supporting exhibits

• timeline materials

• title-related follow-up steps

• additional homeowner guidance

Use this action page as your starting point, not your stopping point.

 

Quick Checklist

Before mailing, make sure you have:

• completed the template with your own information

• printed four copies

• signed the three mailed copies

• addressed three separate envelopes

• sent each by Certified Mail

• saved your receipts and tracking numbers

 

Final Note

You are not required to just sit there while someone clouds your title and refuses to show their authority.

Use the template.
Create the paper trail.
Make them either prove it — or remove it.
