A Common Element inium is comprised solely of common elements such as a private road, parking spaces, mailbox pad, play area and any other common elements and do not include dwelling units/lots.
A limited common element is part of a inium's property that is for the exclusive use by occupants of a unit or group of units but is owned by the community as a whole.
In inium Associations, individual unit owners jointly own an undivided share of the common elements. In simpler terms, if you live in a 100-unit inium building, each unit owner possesses a 1/100th share of all the common elements.
