I need some insight about this situation with my condo's HOA. The thread below is how it started:
http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=389224
Now, they want me to pay 50% of the cost they pay the plumbers to clear the common drain line. Some data:
- The clog is outside of my unit extent per the definition in the condo document so technically I am not responsible for it.
- If they say the the line clogged by users then there are other units above mine could cause it as well.
- I paid out of pocket for all the damages in my unit which are partially caused by the plumbers in order to clear the line.
The money they are asking for is a few hundreds so it's not worth involving a legal battle and a paid lawyer. Since I am still planning to live in the building I am looking for some peaceful mediation and solution. Or not?
Should I suck it up and pay? Should I counter attack and ask them to pay for the damages in my unit?
Your thought?
