In a few words, generally no.

You can read your governing documents to determine what you own in common with all other owners, including common area, common elements and limited common areas/ elements.

As an owner you are obligated by your governing documents to pay for the preservation, protection, and maintenance -- including improvements -- of all real estate elements that you own in common with all other owners -- by way of your assessments.

If you do not understand how you are responsible to pay a full assessment for the services supplied to your community and its assets, by way of your board of directors, you can discuss it with your board or with your association manager.

Can condo bylaws prevent a service dog from living unit with owner. The condo assoc is stating that the service dog exceeds weight limit of by laws. The service dog is owned by a person not disabled?

Your resolution lies with the board. Service dogs may be covered in the By-laws or in the declaration. Certainly, the 'house rules' govern service dogs. If there is no document that covers service dogs, and the animal's behaviour is not a threat to the community, and the board wants to accommodate the dog, it may remain. A resolution detailing the conditions for the animal's residence with a board vote is in order. Weight limits for dogs protect the community and the owner, who must potentially carry the dog out in the case of an emergency. What approvals were given when the service dog became a member of the household? What permissions, proofs and requirements were established? In order to evict the dog, the board must prove that the dog's residency violates the 'rules' and that there has been no accommodation given for the animal.

How much should I be paying for condo insurance?

The value of your insurance depends upon the value of your condo. The important thing is that you have enough insurance to replace the condo. If you got the condo for a low price many years ago you can't insure it for that because you'd not be able to get another to replace if it were destroyed. The cost of the insurance on yor condo is based on several factors. In some cases your condo association will dictate the amount of coverage you must have.


What episode of Frasier does Frasier join the condo committee?

There are two episodes of Frasier where Frasier is involved with the condo committee, however I don't think he ever actually managed to get on the condo committee itself. The first is in Season 4, episode 11: Three Days Of The Condo. In that episode Frasier runs against the president of the condo board after she refuses his request to have an antique door knocker. The other is in Season 10, episode 3: Proxy Prexy. In this episode Frasier gets Martin to run for condo board president but using Frasier's ideas.
