KEEP IN MIND that all condominiums are subject to an offering plan review. Having worked with offering plans and their contents, we are familiar with “pitfalls.” While unable to dispense legal advice, we are able to assist you in doing a bit of “investigation”. Condominiums are a perfect solution- knowing exactly what by-laws you are purchasing is part of that solution.
