§ 6534 Common Interest Development Types

Key Takeaways

  • •This law talks about places where people own their homes but share some things with neighbors.
  • •It includes three types of homes: condos, planned neighborhoods, and co-ops where you own shares instead of the property.
  • •If you live in one of these, you and your neighbors share responsibility for common areas like pools or parks.

Example

You buy a condo in a big building.

You own your condo, but you and all the other owners share the hallways, gym, and parking lot. This law says your building is a 'common interest development' because you share these things with your neighbors.
