Description

A condominium is a combination of co-ownership and individual ownership. Those who own an apartment house or buy a condominium are co-owners of the land and of the halls, lobby, and other common areas, but each apartment in the building is individually owned by its occupant. In some States, the owners of the various units in the condominium have equal voice in the management and share an equal part of the expenses. In other States, control and liability for expenses are shared by a unit owner in the same ratio as the value of the unit bears to the value of the entire condominium project. The bigger condominium owners would have more say-so than the smaller condominium owners.

There can be different types of Indiana Management Agreements between a condominium association and management company, depending on the specific needs and requirements of each association. Some common types of management agreements include: 1. Full-Service Management Agreement: This agreement grants the management company full authority and responsibility over the day-to-day operations of the condominium association. They handle tasks such as financial management, maintenance and repairs, vendor selection, and enforcement of association rules and regulations. 2. Financial Management Agreement: In this type of agreement, the management company focuses primarily on financial aspects, including budget preparation, accounting, bill payment, and financial reporting. Other responsibilities, such as maintenance and repairs, may be handled by the association or a separate service provider. 3. Maintenance and Repair Agreement: This agreement is specifically tailored to address the maintenance and repair needs of the condominium association. The management company takes on the responsibility of coordinating and overseeing all maintenance tasks, including scheduling repairs, obtaining quotes, and supervising contractors. 4. Advisory or Consulting Agreement: This type of agreement is less hands-on compared to other management agreements. The management company provides advice, guidance, and recommendations to the condominium association, but the association retains the authority and responsibility for executing those recommendations. 5. Shared Responsibility Agreement: In certain cases, the condominium association and the management company may enter into an agreement where responsibilities and tasks are divided between the two parties. For example, the association may handle financial management, while the management company takes care of maintenance and repairs. Each type of management agreement serves a unique purpose and can be customized to meet the specific needs and goals of the condominium association. It is crucial for the association to carefully review and negotiate the terms and conditions of the agreement to ensure all parties are satisfied and their interests are protected.
