Your first task is to report the leak into your unit, so that the leak can be addressed and damage repaired. There may be a difference between who repairs the damage and who pays for it. Report it to the association manager, the resident manager, and/or the board.

Overall, read your governing documents to determine who owns the roof. Look in your CC&Rs in the section with 'boundaries' in the title or the text. The owner of the roof is responsible for repairs, and it may very well be the association.

Protect Your Investment with Condo Insurance?

If you own a condominium, you might be surprised to learn that you need to purchase additional condo insurance. After all, don't the condominium associations cover those costs? Many people mistakenly believe that they are completely covered from any damage or theft thanks to their membership to a condo association. In fact, this kind of coverage typically only qualifies the exterior of the building, or any common areas. Should anything happen to the interior of the condo, the owner or tenant would be completely liable and have innumerable expenses. A common cost incurred by condo owners is any kind of flood or water damage. If a faulty pipe or even a leaky faucet while you're away causes excess water in the condo, you may be dealing with anything from repainting the wall to completely redoing the floors. Rather than cover these unexpected expenses out of pocket, those with condo insurance will have these costs covered, and even have help finding contractors to do the work. Having condo insurance can really offer peace of mind for those who are away from their condos for more than a day at a time. If your condo is where you store any valuable or significant items, like televisions, computers, or jewelry, it may be especially important for you to have condo insurance. This can protect you in the event of a break-in, and help you to recoup your monetary losses. Unfortunately, condominium break-ins are common due to the fact that residents are often traveling or away from their second homes. If a burglary occurs in your condo, would you be prepared to cover the expenses? Small payments of condo insurance can help you not to worry about leaving valuables in your condo. If someone were to slip and fall in a condo, the owner would be liable for any injury and medical costs associated with that. In today's legal climate, where high punitive damages are common, that might mean the condo owner would need to pay huge costs. Liability insurance in your condo is important for having guests, visitors, or even handymen doing work in your home. Protect yourself against court fees and amy judgments by investing in condo insurance.
