It seems like this would be more on seller side.It’s not a deal breaker for the buyer, just a pain and occasionally a time suck, it absolutely can be an issue when you sell, not something that can’t be overcome but something that can cost time, money, effort, which again is why I’d just much rather be in condos than multi family all things equal, the per unit savings aren’t even that big in large swaths of D.C.
