Best Answer

When you rent a unit/ home/ apartment that is owned by a member of a condominium, co-op or home owners association, you are subject to the rules and regulations set out in the governing documents for the association.

Your rights are generally the same as the rights of an owner -- unless specifically excluded either by the CC&Rs, By-laws or Resolutions of the Board, or your lease -- except that you cannot vote on association business matters.

You can review any specific questions with your landlord or with a board member.
