Frequently Asked Questions

The Fox Hill Residential Condominium consists of the 240 residences located in the four separate wings of the complex, which are known as the Abbot, Buckley, Eliot and Dickinson buildings.

Unlike other many other communities, residents at Fox Hill are owners of their condominium. Fox Hill is a for-sale equity product. Costs vary by condominium size and location within the community as well as by variances in the local real estate market. We encourage you to view the floor plan options available and contact us to inquire about pricing.

The Residential Condominium is controlled by its Board of Directors. There are seven (7) members of the Board of Directors who are elected annually by the owners of the residential condominiums. Board members serve three-year terms and those terms are staggered to provide continuity on the Board.

As previously mentioned, the Fox Hill campus consists of three separate units: the Residential Condominium, the Amenities and the Assisted Living community. Each of these units are members of the Fox Hill Master Condominium. The Fox Hill Master Condominium is responsible to maintain the exterior elements of the campus (the grounds, the driveway, parking areas, etc.), as well as the interior common areas of the building. The Master Condominium is also responsible for general operations at Fox Hill, which includes maintenance and repairs.

The Fox Hill Residential Condominium owners benefit from the amenities and assisted living components on campus. The amenities unit and assisted living unit are owned by affiliates of Welltower, Inc. (NYSE: “HCN”), a publicly traded real estate investment trust with more than $25B in assets that invests across the full spectrum of seniors housing and health care real estate. More information on Welltower can be found at its website.

The amenities at Fox Hill include four dining venues, bar, wine cellar and tasting room, fitness center, indoor pool, spa and salon, Performing Arts Center, art studio, library, indoor golf simulator, as well as concierge, limousine and bus transportation services, and more. All of these amenities are part of the daily experience at Fox Hill. There is a portion of the monthly condominium fees payable which covers the cost to provide these amenities for all Residential Condominium owners. The monthly Residence Services fee applicable to each residential unit is set forth in the Public Offering Statement materials provided to you.

On-site assisted living and memory care is managed by Sunrise Senior Living, LLC and has its own entrance and amenities.

You will not pay assisted living service fees unless you are utilizing those services.

As previously discussed, this Residence Services fee covers full access to the amenities (including four dining venues, bar, wine cellar and tasting room, fitness center, indoor pool, spa and salon, Performing Arts Center, art studio, library, indoor golf simulator, as well as concierge, limousine and bus transportation services and more.)

Since it was created, Fox Hill has had a Capital Reserve to fund replacement of all of the capital components (such as roofs; exterior walls, windows and doors, plumbing, heating and electrical systems, elevators, pavement, etc.) for both the Master Condominium and the Residential Condominium. Those plans have identified every component of Fox Hill, specified the useful life of each component over the next 40 years (through 2057) and the appreciated cost to replace those components over those 40 years. The plans then set the amount of money needed to pay for all of those replacements as they become necessary.

A portion of the monthly fees of each unit goes into those Capital Reserve Funds to ensure that all replacements of capital components can be paid for without the need of a special assessment.

Each year, as part of the annual budget process, the Capital Reserve plans are reviewed by the Board and the on-site Management. Every five (5) years those plans are reviewed by an independent engineering consultant to ensure that the plans are comprehensive, accurate and fully funded. This is the stated policy of the Condominium Boards.

The last review of the Capital Reserve plans by the independent engineering firm was completed in 2015. The Boards of directors completed a review of the reserve plans in the last fall as part of the preparation of the current fiscal year budget which began in January.
