There seems to be so many options and wholesaling definately seems something I would be interested in.

In an environment with few defined benefits, zero pensions and crappy 401ks when will we begin to value productive employees?

Thanks for your thoughts, I'm definately feeling outside of my comfort zone.H.M.

NIck, the fudiciary duty defined by the agency realtionship has NOTHING to do with your relationship with that Realtor.

You can most definately save a lot if you're smart about it.

The Operating Agreement defines the relationship between members, how they share profits and losses, how the assign captial and interests, they do not have to share eaually.

This is a very broad topic.

There is a tendency to broad stroke a "universal" solution when depending on various factors; geography, competitors and market conditions, create isolated results.

I called them and told them 1) the Board can come up with whatever they want, but if this is a change Bylaws it had to be voted on by the membership2) the Board would be insane to do this as if they required Owners to put up lockboxs outside the door and there was a break-in to the unit from someone who accessed the lockbox, my guess is the prop. managment company would be sued and the HOA would be sued for making owners put keys in lockboxs next to their units (and thus creating an unsafe environment).In your case, the Board can recommend that owners come into compliance with certain laws (CO2, fire alarms...) but I do not believe they have the right to enter to enforce this unless clearly defined in the CC&R's.My guess is the Boards/Management Company's heart was in the right place (in terms of making sure owners complied and keeping people safe) but how it was implemented left a little to be desired.They should have at least contacted you to see if you wanted the option of them going into to install the CO2 or if you had already taken care of this.

The Act is to be broadly interpreted.
