Section A  ·  Tiered Findings Index

Findings in descending severity. Tier classification reflects evidentiary confidence and immediacy of action required.

Tier 4  ·  Escalation Required
T4-01  ·  Unlicensed Community Management
Evidence: NRED license records; NRS 116A.400; NRED Case 2025-610
Risk: Every management action, disbursement authorization, and contractual execution during the review period was performed without legal authority. All vendor payments approved by Haldeman are potentially void ab initio.
Recommended Action: Regulatory referral — NRED; supplement NRED Case 2025-610; refer to Nevada AG for civil enforcement; criminal referral for review pending further legal assessment
T4-02  ·  Reserve Account Control Vested in Management Company
Evidence: Reserve account May 2025 statement — account titled in name of Nevada Community Management LLC as agent; NRS 116.3103
Risk: Signatory authority over association reserve funds rests with the management company, not the board. Every reserve disbursement during the review period was authorized by a party with no legal authority to do so.
Recommended Action: Engage association counsel for immediate account retitling; freeze reserve account pending board resolution; refer to NRED as element of T4-01 complaint
T4-03  ·  107xx Secondary Check Series — Unidentified Payee, No Authorization
Evidence: Bank transaction records; 43 checks; $61,685.81 total; May 2025 – March 2026; no payee identified; no board authorization in any meeting minutes
Risk: A parallel disbursement channel operating outside the primary AvidPay tracking system, with no identified recipient, constitutes an unaccounted outflow of association funds across the full review period.
Recommended Action: Obtain all check images for series; ADP payroll register reconciliation; attorney referral; criminal referral for review
T4-04  ·              Reserve Draw — No Prior Authorization; Ratification Mismatch
Evidence: Reserve account Sep 2025 statement; AvidPay reference; September 22, 2025 minutes; March 9, 2026 minutes; NRS 116.31083
Risk: $41,108.35 disbursed September 11, 2025, eleven days before the next board meeting, with no authorization appearing in those minutes. March 9, 2026 ratification of $164,000 does not match the amount drawn.
Recommended Action: Obtain             contract, scope of work, and invoices; attorney referral; document $122,891.65 differential for potential civil recovery
T4-05  ·  CHECK 10004 — $185,079.26 Circular Reserve Transfer; Payee Unidentified
Evidence: Reserve account — November 10, 2025 web transfer out ($185,079.26); December 2, 2025 web transfer in ($185,079.26); December 4, 2025 CHECK 10004 ($185,079.26); no payee identified on statement; no board authorization in any meeting minutes; NRS 116.31083
Transfer Sequence: (1) November 10, 2025 — Reserve → Operating via web transfer, $185,079.26; (2) December 2, 2025 — Operating → Reserve via web transfer, $185,079.26 (returned); (3) December 4, 2025 — Reserve → CHECK 10004, $185,079.26, payee unidentified
Risk: Largest single disbursement in the review period. The two-day return of funds to the reserve account before the check cleared is consistent with staging to obscure the ultimate recipient. No board authorization documented for any step in this sequence. October and November 2025 — the months with no clean board financial approval — make this disbursement window one with zero governance oversight.
Recommended Action: Obtain CHECK 10004 image and payee identification; attorney referral; regulatory referral. If the Nevada Real Estate Division or Commission orders production, Nevada Community Management can be compelled to submit the check image and payee records.
Tier 3  ·  Potential Findings
T3-01  ·            Reserve Draws — Consecutive Identical Amounts, No Authorization
Evidence: Reserve account July 2025 and August 2025 statements; July 2025 minutes — not produced; August 2025 minutes — not produced
Confidence: Two consecutive $17,300 reserve draws to same payee with no meeting documentation for either month; no reserve study line item identified for          
T3-02  ·  Board Minutes Systematic Period Misdating
Evidence: September 22, 2025 minutes — agenda period "February – June 2025"; recorded motion approves "November 2024 – January 2025 financials." March 9, 2026 minutes — agenda period "July – November 2025"; recorded motion approves "July – September 2025 financials" only. Source-verified against both documents.
Confidence: Two independently documented instances; October and November 2025 — months of highest-value reserve transfers — have never been cleanly approved in any board action
T3-03  ·  Missing July 2025 Board Minutes
Evidence: April 21, 2025 minutes — meeting referenced as scheduled for July 2025; no July minutes produced; first $17,300           reserve draw occurred in July 2025
Confidence: Meeting was scheduled per prior minutes; absence cannot be attributed to cancellation without written confirmation
T3-04  ·  Page Haldeman Direct AvidPay Payments — No Authorization
Evidence: Operating account statements; Sep 2025: $616.29 (3 payments); Oct 2025: $175.00; total: $791.29; payment channel: AvidPay; no contract or board resolution identified
Confidence: Manager receiving payments from the account she oversees; no documented employment agreement or board authorization found
Tier 2  ·  Red Flags
T2-01  ·            — Payments Above Ratified Rate; No SOS Record; Bounced First Payment
Observations: Avg monthly payment $7,759; board ratified $7,530/month; first payment ($8,275.88) returned; no NV SOS entity record found; no contract produced
Why flagged: Billing above ratified rate; entity identity unverifiable; no contract supports any amount
Further investigation: SOS search all adjacent states; obtain contract; reconcile all payments against ratified rate
T2-02  ·            — December Clustering; Reversal; Entity in Default
Observations: 4 payments December 2025, total $10,543; $9,653 reversal January 2026; entity formed January 2025; entity in default status by year-end 2025
Why flagged: Multiple payments in single month; reversal without documented explanation; payment to entity known to be in default
Further investigation: Invoices for all December 2025 payments; reason for reversal; SOS entity status documentation
T2-03  ·            /         — Dual Vendor Codes, Possible Same Entity
Observations: $6,803 combined Q2–Q3 2025; two vendor codes for what may be a single entity; identity unverified; no SOS record confirmed
Why flagged: Dual vendor codes for a single entity can obscure total payment volume and circumvent approval thresholds
Further investigation: Entity resolution; combine totals under single vendor record; contract and invoice review
T2-04  ·  Benford's Law Non-Conformity — Full Dataset and AvidPay Channel
Observations: Debit MAD 0.0369 (threshold 0.015; classification: HIGH RISK); full dataset MAD 0.0226 (non-conformity); AvidPay channel MAD 0.0323 (HIGH RISK); digit-1 excess +13.3%; digit-3 deficit −6.1%
Why flagged: Debit MAD is more than twice the non-conformity threshold; AvidPay channel shows independent non-conformity; compound signal
Further investigation: Transaction-level review of $10,000–$19,999 debit cluster; all AvidPay disbursements to unidentified vendors
T2-05  ·  Check Series Gaps — Primary and Secondary Series
Observations: Primary series (10xxx): gaps at 10005 and 10063–10065; Secondary series (100xxx): 10 consecutive checks unaccounted for — 100818 through 100827
Why flagged: Sequential gaps in an otherwise continuous series indicate unproduced checks or out-of-sequence issuance
Further investigation: Check images for all gap positions; check register reconciliation
T2-06  ·           — Duplicate Same-Authorization-Date Payments
Observations: Two identical $1,125 payments to          in August 2025 recorded on the same authorization date
Why flagged: Identical amount, same payee, same authorization date — standard duplicate payment indicator
Further investigation: Obtain invoices; confirm whether services were rendered twice; demand refund if duplicate confirmed
Tier 1  ·  Anomalies
T1-01  ·  LV Valley Water — Consecutive Identical Monthly Charges
Observation: LV Valley Water account #0005325401 — $5,285.00 in May 2025 and $5,285.00 in June 2025
Status: Requires explanation; insufficient evidence to elevate — independent meter audit recommended
T1-02  ·  New Vision Community Management LLC — Relationship Unestablished
Observation: Entity name appears in review context; relationship to Nevada Community Management LLC and to RCA not yet documented
Status: Requires explanation; entity research and payment history review required before assessment
T1-03  ·  Special Assessment Authorization — Documentation Not Produced
Observation: Reserve study (Complex Solutions, July 2023) references special assessments of $250,000 (2024) and $100,000 (2025); no authorization documentation or owner notice produced
Status: Requires explanation; production demand outstanding; insufficient evidence to classify pending document review
T1-04  ·  CHECK 10005 and CHECK 10006 — Reserve Account; Payee Unidentified
Observation: CHECK 10005: $33,600, January 2026, reserve account; CHECK 10006: $43,745, March 2026, reserve account; payee unidentified; check images not produced
Status: Requires explanation; check images required; may escalate to Tier 3 or Tier 4 upon payee identification

Digit-1 Excess: 210 observed vs. 146 expected. Two concentration bands: 114 transactions ($100–$199); 18 transactions ($10,000–$19,999 — includes           and related payments clustering near $17,300–$17,504).

Digit-3 Deficit: 31 observed vs. 60 expected. Suppression of $300–$399 and $3,000–$3,999 amounts.

AvidPay Channel: $400,003.66 total processed; digit-1 at 39.8% (expected 30.1%); primary conduit for          ,          ,          ,            .

107xx Series: Dominant fixed-amount clustering ($1,610.03 × 20 occurrences) produces digit-frequency pattern inconsistent with organic payroll variation.

Limitations: Benford's is a screening tool, not a fraud finding. Recurring fixed payments contribute to digit skew independent of manipulation. The $100–$199 band excess is partly attributable to legitimate recurring payments. The $10,000–$19,999 cluster and AvidPay channel deviation are not explained by routine fixed-payment patterns.

Tier Classification: Tier 2 — Red Flag; warrants transaction-level review of $10,000–$19,999 debit cluster and all AvidPay disbursements to unidentified vendors.
