SweetGrass FAQ
(Frequently Asked Questions)
When I purchase a homesite, do I have to build in a given amount of time?
There are no restrictions on build time, which means you build when it’s right for you and
your family.
Is there a Property Owners Association?
A SweetGrass Property Owners Association has been established to maintain the integrity
of the community and its amenities. Our POA is managed by IPM Corporation, a thirdparty community management company in the service of the property owners and their
elected Board. You may learn more about IPM at www.ipm-corp.com. Your sales representative will be happy to provide you with a copy of the POA Charter.
What are the POA fees?
The POA will assess owners a quarterly fee to be used for management and maintenance
of common areas and amenities. The assessment will be determined annually by the POA’s
board of directors. A copy of the current POA budget and fee schedule is available upon
request. Current annual fees range from $1,320 to $2,160 total - very affordable!
Are there homes available for purchase?
There are three new proposed homes currently for sale, each with unique design characteristics and locations ranging from streamside to mountainside with spectacular views.
Who will build my home?
We have developed relationships with a number of local builders and will provide a list for
your consideration. Ultimately, the choice of an architect and builder is yours. An Architectural Style Guide will be provided to assist your architect and builder in the design of your
home. Our goal is to facilitate the building process for you.
How long will it take to build our home here?
That’s a question for your builder and will likely depend on the home you ultimately decide
to build.
Will I be required to maintain my home and landscaping?
Maintenance of the home and landscape will be the owner’s responsibility. For cottages,
cabins and mountain lodge home sites, landscaping services will be provided by the POA;
these owners will be assessed an additional quarterly fee for such services.
What about snow removal?
Snow removal on common roadways will be provided and paid for through the Property
Owners Association.
What kind of water system will the homes use?
Homes and cottages are served by shared wells with a maximum of seven houses sharing
one well. The shared wells help reduce building costs per owner and allows for optimization of land use in the design and layout of home and improvements. The costs of operating and maintaining the wells are assessed to the owners through the POA.
What about septic?
Estate homes will have individual septic systems. Some cabin, cottage and mountain
lodge home sites may have a shared system which, like water wells, will be managed by
the Property Owner’s Association.
Can I rent out my home when I’m not using it?
At the owner’s discretion, homes may be rented for periods of one week or longer. Four
Lake Cottages, located adjacent to the Lake House, may be available for shorter nightly
rental periods.
Can I sell my lot at any time?
Yes. There are no restrictions on re-sales.
Is there a formal re-sale or rental program?

assist you with re-sales. There are several professional property management companies

elsewhere in the southeast. In winter, the temperatures remain cold enough to sustain a
vibrant snow sports industry, including three local ski areas, all within 10 to 25 minutes
by car.
Are pets allowed?

their pets! For dogs there is no better place with 100 acres of common meadows to roam,
