I recently purchased a condo that contained the follwing info in the MLS listing.
Condo Fee Includes :Water/Sewer, Management, Trash removal, Snow removal,Common area maintenance, Common area insurance, Reservefund
The condo fees were $150 when I originally submitted an offer. Later I was informed that it would be raised to $200 starting in January. I had no problem with this after reading and checking with my selling agent about all that was included for the fee. Now that I have purchased the unit and moved in I have received a water/sewage bill in my name. I was shocked after getting this since it is stated that water/sewage are part of the condo fees. I contacted the condo management company to confirm the deal. I was told the condo fees do not include my water/sewage. I feel misled on this, had I known this before buying I would have agreed the condo fess were to high for what I was going to acutally be getting. I noticed since I have brought this up with the condo management company they have contacted the listing real estate company and removed the wording on current listings. I have backed up a printed copy and screenshot of the listing before they changed it. Any advice wold be appreciated.... Thanks!
