Hi - we are in contract on a coop and want to do some small alterations to the apartment once we close. We wanted to reach out to the management company and ask if they would consider the renovation proposal alongside our purchase application so we can try and be efficient (with all the caveats that we may not get approved etc etc). It is a very minor change but the super of the building advised us we would need to get approval. We drafted a letter requesting this and our broker told us we are not allowed to contact the management company of a building we are not approved to live in. I can't believe this is true because what if we had no broker acting for us? Wouldnt we be reaching out to them to finalize our submission? This broker has been totally useless so I dont want to just listen to her advice. Any thoughts? Thanks!!
