I realize that the majority of house rules specify that coop apartments must have carpeting/padding that covers 80% of the apartment with the exception of kitchens, bathrooms, foyers, etc.
I'd like to know if anyone would share their process for effectively enforcing the rule, especially for new shareholders? Are any boards inspecting the unit(s) prior to the new owners moving in, provided it's specified in the house rules and proprietary lease? Is there a legal issue in requiring an inspection?

Our building only enforces the rule and does an inspection if the downstairs neighbor complains about the noise. We have many apartments that don't come close to 80% and as long as people walk in soft soled shoes and don't have young kids, or the downstairs neighbor is hard of hearing it's normally OK.
