Condominium assessments are income to the association. If there is a judgement against the association, owners who pay assessments may be liable to pay the judgement under a special assessment.
Condominium owners pay assessments to support the operation of the community. Owners may have their income garnished, even those monies earmarked to pay their assessments.
Of course you can. In most states, condo fees become liens on the condo, so a secured debt. You would have to file a C. 13 and plan to pay off the arrears as a secured debt.
There is no standard, plus all fees are negotiable. The real estate agent involved in your transaction can explain fees to you.
You can wait for the association to take action against you for the debt you owe, or you can take action and explore payment plans that fit into your current situation.
YES. Condo Fees
The board or the association manager can answer your question.
Not usually. Your monthly assessments -- fees, you write -- pay to operate the community and save money for major repairs.
401k's can be seized for child support. For college payments or attorney's fees, not likely.
Probably not. Just as you can't claim ownership of property to which you have no title.
Yes.
The outstanding fees will show up at the closing. Obtaining a certificate that there are no fees due is an automatic part of a closing on a condo unit or a property subject to any association fees.
Condominium living implies assessments, regardless of the amenities owned by the association.
