Property Pay Login (First Citizens): Pay HOA Dues Online

Short answer

Go to propertypay.firstcitizens.com. You do not need an account to pay: choose Pay Assessments and enter the IDs printed on your HOA coupon. For recurring payments and history, choose Sign Up, find your property with its Property IDs or address, and create a login with your email. Property Pay is First Citizens Bank's portal — the same one your association may still call Mutual of Omaha or CIT Property Pay. Support is 866-800-4656.

Where to log in

The only official address is:

https://propertypay.firstcitizens.com

The home page offers four doors: Sign Up, Login, Pay Assessments and Pay Amenities, plus a Pay by Mail page. The footer names First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company. If the page in front of you shows neither the firstcitizens.com domain nor that name, stop — you are not on Property Pay.

Your association may still call it something else

Coupons and HOA newsletters often still say Mutual of Omaha, CIT, or C-PropertyPay. Those are all earlier names for this same portal. Old propertypay.cit.com links redirect here automatically; old Mutual of Omaha addresses no longer load at all.

Why it has three names

Property Pay has changed owners twice:

PeriodOwnerWhat residents saw
Before 2020Mutual of Omaha BankMutual of Omaha Property Pay
2020 – 2021CIT BankCIT Property Pay / C-PropertyPay
2022 – todayFirst Citizens BankProperty Pay at propertypay.firstcitizens.com

CIT completed its acquisition of Mutual of Omaha Bank on 1 January 2020, largely for its community association banking business. First Citizens then completed its merger with CIT on 3 January 2022. The portal stayed with the business through both deals, so the login you set up under an earlier name may still be the one you use.

It is a bank product run by First Citizens’ Community Association Banking division. It is not ClickPay, which belongs to RealPage — if you are unsure which one your association uses, our ClickPay vs Property Pay guide settles it in seconds.

Pay once without an account

This is the fastest route, and Property Pay states plainly that you do not need to sign in to make a payment.

  1. Open propertypay.firstcitizens.com and choose Pay Assessments.
  2. Find your property, either with the IDs on your coupon or by property address.
  3. Enter your payment details — card or bank account (eCheck).
  4. Read the payment summary. It lists the payment, the Administrative Fee if any, and the total.
  5. Submit, and keep the confirmation.

First Citizens’ own one-time payment guide covers the same steps with screenshots.

The three numbers on your coupon

Property Pay identifies your home with three IDs, all printed at the bottom of your payment coupon or statement:

NumberWhat it identifies
Management Company IDThe company that manages your association
Association IDYour HOA or condo association
Property ID (Property Account Number)Your individual home — assigned by your management company

No coupon? Search by property address instead. If that fails too, your management company can give you the Property Account Number — the bank cannot look it up for you by name.

Create an account

An account is worth it if you want saved payment methods, recurring payments or a payment history. Per First Citizens’ sign-up and scheduling guide:

  1. Choose Sign Up and accept the terms.
  2. Enter your contact information.
  3. Enter your Property IDs and choose Find My Property, then Register Property.
  4. Create your login with your name, email address and a password.
  5. Log in with that email and password.
"Your account is not yet active"

New accounts can take up to 24 hours to switch on. If you need to pay before then, use Pay Assessments as a guest rather than waiting — a late HOA payment usually costs more than the wait.

Forgot your password

  1. On the Login page, choose Forgot Your Password.
  2. Enter your username or email address.
  3. Property Pay emails you a 6-digit code. Enter it.
  4. Set a new password.

If the code never arrives, check your spam folder before requesting another one. If your email address on file is out of date, only Property Pay support can change it.

Set up recurring payments

  1. Log in and add a card or bank account to your Wallet.
  2. Choose Make a Payment, then Schedule Payments.
  3. Pick the frequency and amount, and choose Create Schedule.

Each schedule uses one payment method. If you need two — say, dues from one account and a special assessment from another — create two schedules.

Your schedule does not follow your dues

A schedule pays the amount you set. If your association raises dues or levies a special assessment, update the schedule yourself, or the shortfall becomes a late balance.

Payment methods, fees and timing

Details
AcceptedVisa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, and eCheck (bank account and routing number)
FeeAn “Administrative Fee” for First Citizens and your management company, shown in the payment summary before you submit. No public rate — it is set per association.
Same-day cutoffSubmitted before 9 pm ET, Monday to Friday excluding holidays, processes the same day
After the cutoffProcesses the next bank business day
Scheduled date on a weekend or holidayRuns on the business day before

The weekend rule is the one people miss: a schedule set for the 1st may pull money on the 30th or 31st of the previous month. Make sure the funds are there.

Fees are the other surprise. The site says “Fees may apply for online payments” and leaves the amount to the summary screen. Do not rely on a figure from a forum or a neighbour in another association; compare card against eCheck in the summary before you choose.

Paying amenities

The separate Pay Amenities door handles things like pool keys, access cards, parking passes, clubhouse rentals and event fees. It works the same way as assessments, as a guest or from your account.

Paying by mail instead

The Pay by Mail page does not list a single address, because there isn’t one. Each association has its own payment address, printed on your coupon with the amount due and your account number. If you have no coupon, ask your management company for it.

Who to contact

ProblemContact
Login, registration, password, a failed paymentProperty Pay support — 866-800-4656 (option 3 on the live site), servicepropertypay@firstcitizens.com, Mon–Fri 9 am–8 pm ET
Your balance, late fees, the amount dueYour management company
Your Property ID or Property Account NumberYour management company

The bank processes the payment; your management company keeps the ledger. Calling the bank about a disputed late fee wastes a call.

Lookalike addresses

propertypay.com is a different website with no connection to First Citizens. The real portal always lives under firstcitizens.com. Use the address on your coupon or type it yourself rather than clicking a search ad.

What to do next

  1. Open propertypay.firstcitizens.com and check the domain.
  2. Pay as a guest if you need to pay today; register later at leisure.
  3. Read the payment summary for the Administrative Fee before submitting.
  4. Set up a schedule only if you will remember to update it when dues change.
  5. Take balance questions to your management company, and login problems to Property Pay support.

If your association actually uses ClickPay, our guides to what ClickPay is and ClickPay’s card fees cover that side. We are independent of First Citizens Bank, ClickPay and RealPage — see our disclaimer.

Frequently asked questions

Is Mutual of Omaha Property Pay the same as First Citizens Property Pay?
Yes, it is the same product under its third owner. Mutual of Omaha Bank's community association business went to CIT on 1 January 2020, and First Citizens merged with CIT on 3 January 2022. Old Mutual of Omaha web addresses no longer work; old CIT ones redirect to propertypay.firstcitizens.com.
Do I need an account to pay my HOA dues on Property Pay?
No. Property Pay's own site says you do not need to sign in to make a payment. Choose Pay Assessments, find your property, and pay as a guest. An account only adds saved payment methods, recurring schedules and payment history.
Where do I find my Property ID?
At the bottom of your payment coupon or statement. Property Pay uses three numbers — a Management Company ID, an Association ID and a Property ID (also called the Property Account Number). If you do not have a coupon, you can search by property address, or ask your management company, which assigns the account number.
Why does Property Pay say my account is not active?
New registrations can take up to 24 hours to activate — the site itself shows a message asking you to try again in 24 hours. If it still fails after a day, call Property Pay support on 866-800-4656.
How much is the Property Pay fee?
There is no published figure. Property Pay calls it an Administrative Fee, charged for First Citizens Bank and your management company, and it is set per association. The amount appears in the payment summary before you submit, so check it there every time.
Is there a Property Pay app?
First Citizens does not currently list one. Its Property Pay pages and resources point residents to the website, which works in a phone browser. Be wary of any app that claims to be Property Pay.
