What is the name of your state? New Jersey
I live in a townhouse community and 33 of the 131 units have roof leaks related to faulty construction. The Homeowners Association and Management Company have made various minor repairs, none of which have solved the problem. The ceiling in my living room and the ceiling / walls in my bedroom are ruined. I'd like to join forces with the other 32 owners to force action -- at a minimum, installing tarps on the roofs to prevent further damage until a permanent solution is found. Some questions: (a) can we begin paying our monthly association fees into an escrow account until action is taken? (b) do we have any recourse as far as the expenses we will incur to restore the interiors of our homes? Is there any thing else we can do?!
