So get this. I've been in my condo over 5 years now. When I bought the place the Association and Board was nothing more than the developer and the Property management company. I want DirecTV, so I work with the Construction company who's there, the developer, and the management company. They come out and show the DirecTV guy where it is to be installed. Everything is fine.
Flash forward to yesterday I get a letter from the new management company who took over the place a couple years ago. The letter states that they're a new policy that all satellite installations need to be approved in writing by the board of directors, and if I have one currently installed I have 2 options.
1.) pay the association's contractors to take it down and "repair the roof" (the thing is screwed to the roof using 4 screws.)
2.) pay the association a $300 deposit for future roof repairs when the dish is removed.
What the fuck?
So I called them and told them that the previous management company approved it, they bought everything that went with this place. Including the Clubhouse and Pool that they were supposed to be building but lied to us about... that's another story that I need a good lawyer for... any property / real estate lawyers around?
advice on the satellite situation?
