When selling your home in the Ridgewood Cluster Association, you must obtain a Ridgewood Cluster Association resale certificate and a Reston Association resale certificate.
Order the resale certificates (formerly the resale disclosure packet) before listing your home so you can address any issues that could delay a sale, such as design or maintenance violations. Resale certificates are valid during the calendar year in which they were ordered.
Please follow the steps below when selling your home:
1. Ensure that your property does not have a lien or unpaid assessment. Contact the TWC Association Manager for a current account balance.
2. Order the Ridgewood Cluster Association resale certificate at www.homewisedocs.com.
3. Order the Reston Association resale certificate at WelcomeLink.
After the resale certificates are ordered, Reston Association will inspect your property and issue any necessary citations. Please contact your Covenants Advisor as soon as possible regarding open violations. Then email your Advisor clear, color, wide-angled digital photos for each corrected maintenance violation (demonstrating a cure) so the Advisor has plenty of time to create and issue updated violation status documentation well in advance of settlement. Please note: an application must be submitted to the Design Review Board for certain design violations. If assistance is needed with the DRB application, please ask your Covenants Advisor.
5. Good luck with your sale! Remember:
- Post-mounted signs (For Sale, Under Contract, etc.) are allowed only on your lawn.
- Have prospective buyers park in visitors’ spaces or your designated spaces.
- Remove Open House signs in common areas of the cluster by the end of the day of the Open House.
