Yeah I'm generally not taken aback much, sounds about in line with a large NYC apartment. The one thing I can't live with is no roof access when there is such an elevated expansive view.
To many of us a large NYC Apartment also sounds like a nightmare...
For me when I bought my house the number 1 rule, unbreakable that I gave my realtor was absolutely, under no circumstances how me a house with a HOA...
These people didn't buy a house, they bought a portion of a larger building. That entire premise is utterly unworkable without some organization managing the larger structure. Most of the rules in the above document relate to usage of the shared portions of the building, not the specific condo that the person owns.
