## What do you think? Question:

### I am a condo board member and just found out from an angry co-owner that he had to pay $125 to the property management company to get a status letter to sell his unit. I agree with the seller that this a rip off, considering what little work is entailed in putting together this letter.

### Can we as a board require the management company to produce this info at no cost to owners in good standing? Isn't this info ours to begin with?
