Owning a condominium is not the same as traditional freehold ownership. Condominium ownership is a form of “shared ownership.” When purchasing a new condominium unit, there often are significant fees and unanticipated closing costs. Furthermore, there will be strict rules to follow. Some condominiums do not allow pets, others may place restrictions on the number of occupants permitted in a condominium unit. There may also be restrictions on exclusive use common elements, such as patios, balconies, and terraces, parking spaces, as well as restrictions on renovations and structural alterations to units. It is vitally important that potential purchasers of condominium units consult a knowledgeable lawyer who specifically practices in the area of condominium law. We review and advise clients on purchase and sale documents, declarations, by-laws, and rules to facilitate a hassle free transaction. In addition, once you have moved into your condominium unit, we provide services should any disputes arise.
