A lot of the condo owners probably don’t even the board meetings or care about the complex. Maybe they don’t even want to serve on the board.
Pretty much nobody goes to the meetings where I live. If they condo complex is full of renters the owner doesn’t care as long as the renter’s check clears.
I’m sure you’re right. If the units were being ‘rented’ though, I suspect that the owners are going to be held liable. It will be said that ‘they’ should have known any issues.
