A Condo Corporation Loan is the preferred route to go vs. a Special Assessment, to deal with upcoming repairs. Condo owners and the condo board prefer using a condo corporation loan as it’s a far less stressful financial option vs. coming up with a huge lump sum.
Here’s the original article Google Alerts notified us about ($1.1M Special Assessment):
“Condo owner says board’s lack of transparency regarding needed repairs cost him $25K
Instead of a two-bedroom, two-bathroom, move-up property, Richard Lemaire plans to do some couch surfing at friends’ homes for the foreseeable future, after an unexpected $25,000 special assessment ate away a good chunk of his down payment.
Lemaire says it’s far from the image he had in mind when he decided to sell his 880-square-foot, two-bedroom condo in the Beltline last summer.
“So am I moving up or am I trying to rebuild?
“I had, you know, a nice trustworthy car, a new condo, and was going to buy something different … that was the plan, and the reality is completely the opposite,” said Lemaire.
That plan changed a week after the sale of his condo in an older building went through.
Lemaire and everyone else in the 52-unit building were sent a $1.1-million special assessment. His portion is $25,000, and legally he’s on the hook for it.”
