Terms & Payment Conditions
Riverstone Communities has established a standard vendor payment term to maintain a balance between cash inflows and outflows that reflect our current operating environment. The upfront establishment of clear payment practices helps ensure positive vendor team member relations, allowing for efficient and cost‐effective processing.
The standard payment terms range from 30 days to 45 days for all new vendors and “Net 30” for established vendors. “Payment Term” is the number of days from “invoice date” to “payment date.” All invoice dates must be after goods have been received and/or services have been provided. Pre-dated invoices will be rejected or terms will be extended to conform to our standard.
The standard terms are not negotiable and will be used for all payments regardless of vendor requests or terms per invoice. If unusual circumstances warrant an exception to the standard term (for example, the vendor is offering a substantial early payment discount), forward the request to the Accounts Payable Department via email at Please include a detailed explanation for the exception request.
