Hopefully someone can help me on this , we have a VERY controlling abbrassive President in our Co-Op, he is very close with the Manager . What are the rules for "Grandfather" eg, flooring, does it have enough cork sound proof? the floor has been down for over 10 yrs I am about to sell my condo and the potential buyer was in the unit when the Manager and President barge in and say , these floors will have to be replaced before you close? then they say an appliance that has been there for 12 years will have to be removed also. Then he proceeds to agressively tell them to come to the office and talk about rules, if I didn't know better he tried to sabatoge my sale. Now this is all confirmed by 2 agents. What do I do ? call my lawyer?try to be nice? do these floors have to be replaced??, Help Please!!!!

For clarity, I'm not an attorney and consulting an attorney is always a good idea..
But based on past experience a grandfather clause is given or stated in a newer rule. In other words, to be "grandfathered" the rule should grant an exemption for something that previously existed. If not grandfathered, the rule is typically considered effective without exceptions when its adopted or whenever its effective date may be otherwise stated in the resolution adopting the rule.
As for a deliberate attempt to sabotage a sale: If you believe your rights were violated you should discuss the matter with your attorney.
