THE SOLUTION .
The Condo legislation is written in Spanish, and there\'s no high-quality translation designed for use by foreigner-run Condo administrations. . .
THE PROBLEM .
If you\'re considering buying a condo, you need the knowledge to find out if the Condo is being run properly - before you buy into potential trouble.
If you\'re an owner, or if you\'re part of your condo\'s administration, you need to know what the law says, and what the proper procedures are.
The administration of these condos is often unaware of the details of the Condo legislation - in some cases, the Board is unaware of the very existence of the law.
The same does not occur in Mexico - especially amongst condos that are run by foreigners.
WHY DOES THIS PROBLEM EXIST? In most condos in Canada or the US, there\'s high compliance with provincial and state Condo laws.
MANY CONDOS: don\'t correctly collect Condo fees; don\'t hold proper owners meetings; don\'t carry out proper votes at these meetings; or don\'t have a correct administrative structure.
Would it surprise you to learn that many condos don\'t follow the Jalisco Condo laws? This should concern you, because it exposes your Condo to potential consequences down the road that could result in financial costs or decreased property values.
