Recently a purchaser at new condo had his PDI and he was very pleased with basically everything in his unit, except the balcony.
"I did have a major issue with the shape my balcony was in and was wondering if anybody else may have had a similar problem. Not only dirty, but cracking and chipping on my floor and a big crack on the balcony above me. I mentioned to Tim, the inspector from Plazacorp and he said that Berkley, the property management company, would have to address, as technically it is a common space. He said it may have to come out of pooled maintenance funds. I called Berkley and they told me to contact Susan Tegelberg at Plazacorp. I emailed her and am awaiting her response. Please take note of your balcony condition and make it known that you do not feel it right to be delivered in poor condition, only to have pooled maintenance fees address it. This is a new building and as such, the balcony should be in 'new' condition and not look like it has 10 years of wear on it.
Is this correct? That it is not the responsibility of the builder??
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
