## What do you think? Question:

This question is submitted by Fran R. out of Rhode Island

 

If a unit is damaged and the Association's insurance is paying for the damages per the insurance adjuster quote but the unit owner does not do all the work stated in the insurance adjuster quote, does the Association have the right to withhold those funds for work not done?
