What Are My Rights as a Condo Owner? As a condo owner, you have the right to use your unit as provided in the master deed – if it's a residential inium unit – in a way that allows you to maintain a reasonable standard of living as required by Massachusetts health, safety and building laws.

The rules found in the Massachusetts inium Act include mandatory provisions that must be included in the bylaws, interests in common areas of the inium, and expenses incurred by the unit owners' association. The provisions also explain the fundamental attributes of a inium.

A inium association (COA) does have authority to get a court order requiring a unit owner to evict a tenant. Whether or not the COA would be successful under your facts and circumstances is questionable.

This section provides that all unit owners own an undivided interest in the common areas. The inium form of ownership combines title in specific units with an undivided interest—with other owners—in the common areas.

The state administrative code requires the co-owners' association to maintain a reserve fund which, at a minimum, shall be equal to 10% of the association's current annual budget on a noncumulative basis. The funds shall only be used for major repairs and replacement of common elements.

The process to dissolve a inium association in Massachusetts generally includes a vote by unit owners in ance with the rules set out in the governing documents, followed by the legal dissolution procedures such as settling debts and distributing any remaining assets.
