What is a cond-op? By definition, a cond-op is a residential co-operative where the ground floor (typically commercial units) is converted into a separate “condominium” which is either owned by an outside investor or the original sponsor of the building. Thus, although the residential units are a co-op, the commercial units are owned as a condominium by an entity other than the co-op. Thus, the co-op does not receive the benefit of the income from these units. Many times, people will refer to co-operatives that operate under condominium rules as “cond-ops”. This is not accurate although you will hear this quite often. A cooperative that operates under condominium rules is just that but may be inaccurately referred to as a “cond-op”.
