§ 4500 Condominium Common Area Ownership

• •In a condo or planned community, shared spaces (like pools or parks) are usually owned equally by all homeowners.
• •Each homeowner gets an equal share of the common areas, no matter the size of their home.
• •The rules can be changed if the community's official papers say something different.

A condo building has 10 units and a shared gym. One owner thinks they own more of the gym because their unit is bigger.

Under this law, all 10 owners share the gym equally, even if their units are different sizes. Each owner gets 1/10 of the gym unless the condo rules say otherwise.
