A condominium declaration is a legal document that establishes the rules and regulations for a condominium community. It's created by the developer and recorded in the county's land records. The declaration is the governing document for the condominium and serves as a contract between the unit owners and the condominium association.
Condominium articles of incorporation are documents that establish a condominium association as a legal entity and outline its structure, purpose, and operations.
A condominium certificate of insurance (COI) verifies that a condominium association has the necessary insurance to protect against property damage and liability claims.
