QUOTE (ChrisDavies @ Oct 17 2009, 03:01 AM) You pay the condo fees directly to the board. If fees aren`t paid, the board can put a caveat on the title, blocking you from selling it, and that`s not an ability you want to give to a tenant.
In addition to some or all ulities, condefees also include money spend on building maintenance and a contribution to the capital replacement or reserve fund. The latter is used to pay for replacement of wornout building components such as roofs, elevators and worn-out flooring in common areas.
As these maintenance and replacement costs are already considered part of the overall rent, you would be `double dipping`.
