Article Summary: 

Discusses the process of borrowing money for special assessments by condominium corporations. It explains that when repairs are needed for common property and there isn't enough money in the reserve fund, condo boards may choose to borrow funds on behalf of the owners. This borrowing option provides immediate relief for both condo boards and owners who may otherwise struggle to raise the funds. The post offers a real-life example to illustrate the steps involved in the borrowing process, including getting a proposal from a lender, reviewing loan parameters, obtaining owner approval, and transferring loan documents. It also highlights the benefits of borrowing, such as covering the entire cost of repairs without depleting the reserve fund and avoiding additional fees for owners. The post concludes that condo corporation loans can be a viable solution that maintains or increases the equity value of homes while alleviating financial burdens.
