Condo Corporation
51 East Liberty is governed by a registered Ontario condo corporation under the Condominium Act, 1998. Unit owners are members of the condo corporation and pay monthly maintenance fees to cover building insurance, common area maintenance, reserve fund contributions, and shared utilities.
Current maintenance fees run approximately $0.67/sqft/month. For a typical 600 sqft one-bedroom unit, this represents approximately $402/month. Buyers should always request a current status certificate to verify maintenance fee amounts, reserve fund balance, any pending special assessments, and any existing by-laws that restrict use (rental restrictions, pet policies, smoking policies).
The condo corporation at 51 East Liberty is responsible for building HVAC, elevator maintenance, roof, windows, common corridors, and parking structure. Individual unit owners are responsible for their own interior finishes, appliances, and in-suite plumbing and electrical. For major building decisions, owners attend the Annual General Meeting (AGM) to vote on budgets, board elections, and special resolutions.
