Do I own my unit?
Yes. Workspace USA unit ownership is just the same as a residential condominium. You own the building and the land the building footprint on which it sits. The driveways, parking areas, surrounding open space, and common areas are owned and maintained by the Owners Association.
Is financing available?
Yes. Very economical, low-interest financing is available. 5-year balloon loan, 15% down, and 7.75% interest with a monthly payment based on a 25-year amortization. Other terms may be available.
Will there be monthly costs associated with my unit?
Yes, as with any condo project, there will be Owners Association fees. These monthly fees pay for the following and any other standard cost:
- Water
- Trash disposal
- Septic system maintenance
- Common area electricity usage
- Miscellaneous common area facility repairs
- General liability, Building Replacement and property damage insurance
- Landscape irrigation and maintenance
We are happy to provide a detailed breakdown of all the projected fees on a unit-by-unit basis. Current Georgetown Phase 1 monthly association fees are $.26 per sq. ft. per month. Other upcoming projects should be approximately the same amount. For example, if you purchased 1,250 sq. ft., you could expect to pay approximately $325.00 per month. Since you own your unit, you will be assessed all applicable local property taxes. In most cases, as a business owner, you can expense 100% of these amounts. (Please check with your CPA)
Who pays for the electricity, internet service, phone service, or alarm monitoring in my unit?
Each unit will be individually metered. When you buy your unit, you will open an account with the local utility provider. You will then receive a monthly bill for usage.

Will there be security on-site?
Security is a top priority for this project. Although we do not provide on-site security, the property will be under the watchful eyes of local county law enforcement. All our suites will be prepped for optional alarm systems and security cameras. Each suite owner has the option to consult with our security system subcontractor or bring in their own to install security systems and cameras as deemed necessary.
Is there security in each unit?
The units will come prepped for an optional alarm system on each door. Unit owners are encouraged to add motion and glass break detectors and retain alarm system monitoring services.
