Condominium Law
Our firm provides condominium assistance to developers and homeowners in the Bay Area. The most common matters we handle include:
New Construction Condominium Projects
Depending on the size of the project, we provide a variety of services in order to obtain a Final Public Report from the California Bureau of Real Estate, for projects that are 5 of more units, or final subdivision map approval from the applicable city and county. For all projects, this process includes drafting documents such as Covenants, Conditions, & Restrictions, Bylaws, and Articles of Association and preparing a thorough budget for Homeowners' Associations. In order to obtain final approval, we also assist with subdivision maps, project coordination, and sales agreements and disclosures. In order to ensure the final subdivision map is recorded properly and timely, we submit the application with all the necessary documents, follow up through various agency reviews, assist with obtaining lender signatures when required, and assist clients with receiving their tax certificate.
Condominium Conversions
We are experts in the intricacies of condominium conversion in San Francisco. We assist clients with every step of the process from completing the subdivision application to drafting all the necessary documents to form and manage their Homeowners' Association.
Homeowners' Association
We work with Homeowners' Associations to update documents that do not comply with the most recent revisions to the Davis-Stirling Common Interest Development Act, assist with the development of operating rules and policies, and advise Boards of Directors on how to keep operating rules in compliance with the law.
