Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Condo's Book Of Rules and Regulations
I purchased a condo and never recieved a copy of the condo's rules and regulations. The management company says it's is the previous owners responsiblity, but it was a forclosure. Therefore I was told it was the listing agencies problem. The management company has a master copy that I can check out, but it is 300 pages, they also said that I can purchase it for $.25 a page. And someone told me that it is Florida statue that the listing angency provide the book. Am I getting correct information?... Who needs to provide me with a book?... Or am I just screwed cause I bought a forclosure.

You should have asked for it before the purchase.

The association is entitled to charge you a reasonable fee for copies of the Documents. .25 per page is reasonable. Therefore if you want them you're gonna have to pay.
Re: Condo's Book Of Rules and Regulations
Florida statutes governing Condo law are listed in Part III Section 718.301 and can be found at www.flsenate.gov. Neighbors are always a good source for information, one may have a copy and the association should certainly have a copy available for viewing. Lastly, you can always look at the management copy and only request copies of the sections that you need reference to for your particular circumstance.
