Townhome association bylaws

[High5]

Minnesota

I recently purchased a townhome and seven months later found out that I did not receive the most current set of bylaws. Had I received the most current set of bylaws I would not have purchased the townhome due to the amended clause. My realitor received the set of bylaws I received from the current owner. She says she varified that it was the most current set with an officer of the association. She said it was done over voicemail and has no documentation. I believe her because I recall prior to the purchase her telling me that. At that time she had no reason to be untruthful. Because of this recent turn of events I want to recover all my lost costs due to the amended clause and need to know who is responsible for the misrepresentation. It is the association or the realitor?


I greatly appreciate any help you can give on this matter.

The HOA is not responsible unless you have something in writing.
The Realtor should have verified in writing as to the most current HOA docs via written correspondence to the HOA, property management company or Seller.
Your sales contract contains a clause something to the effect of most current or most recent docs.
