During the period when a new condominium comes on the market and the sponsor finally turns over control to the condo board, who is paying for the condo’s operating expenses? The building is not fully sold so there aren’t enough paying owners to fund the budget, yet the building is operating as if it was fully occupied. Christopher Saray, manager at the accountancy firm of WilkinGuttenplan, explains the how this works, what new condo boards need to understand about the budget when they take over and what condo buyers should be aware of. Habitat’s Carol Ott conducts the interview.
