potentially fraudulent coop mgt company

I thought this only happened in rentals.

Don't withhold your maintenance. Call your attorney who helped you buy & see what they say.

Where is your coop board? How big a building is this?

16 units. very loose board. only 15% owner occupied. Ill call my lawyer on monday

Marco, didn't you just close a few months ago?

Building improvements take time. In all likelihood there is no cooked books, just a slow process. And withholding funds, will only result in a lien. Perhaps you should speak to them and express your concerns.

riversider...the voice of reason. I closed the end of september. so what ur saying is that i should stop blowing up thier email box??

LOL...
Slow repairs does not equate with misappropriation of building funds and the like. No idea what the building improvements are but the building may be speaking to engineers or consultants, taking bids, figuring out if their own staff or contractors will do the work and budgeting and managing the cash flow for what's being considered.
And if it's a small building there's always the question of how much of the work is being done by the board vs the management company etc who also must be concerned with the day to day, etc.

I'd hold off on blowing up the email box for now.

sure fire way to get yourself disinvited to any bldg hollydaze parties after what, 6, 7 weeks? board was loose and 15% oo when you bought.

16 units of which 15 are occupied? ( 16 * 15% =2.4)

not major repairs. Painting common areas, etc

Sell the place..since you've made such good friends there already

never withhold your maintenance...case law dictates you will always have to pay it up (now or later) and even if you've been egregiously wronged.

riversider is correct in that slow does not mean misappropriation BUT that doesn't mean you shoudln't fire off a letter (not an email) expressing your displeasure.

The building is only 15% owner occupied? Or the board?
