Anybody Live In A Co-Op/Condo Building?

[ttrace35]

I been living in a condo for about 18 months now. I am the one of only 4 people in my building with directv. But I am the only one of the 4 to have an HD dish. It is a bigger dish than SD. They told me the dish was too big, but not to worry about it. Now, they are telling me I have to take it down, or get a smaller SD dish. I seen people arguing with the board president yesterday and pointing to my balcony. I guess other people want it and now they are trying to make me take mine down. Is there anything I can do?

Check local zoning codes and see what they allow
Also I have no idea what your Condo Rules are

I have to do when installing cameras once in a while

The rules say a 12 or 16inch dish is allowed. But I think my hd dish is 18 or 24. I talked to somebody and they said that I would probably be able to keep it since they allowed me to already. They said just make a big stink about how I have to pay cancellation fees if the dish has to come down.

I think some fcc regulation that you cannot deny a satellite dish

check into it

Ok. I'm gonna look into it. When I moved in, I made it clear to the owner that I needed directv for football. I wouldn't have moved here. I pay too much money to be told what to do. To many rules and regulations in these places.

When they initially granted you permission you should have gotten it in writting, otherwise it is pointless and they can go back on their word at anytime; hence they are getting complaints now from others and going back on it.

Your right. I should have. People are complaining because they want one too. I can prove that I had it up for 18 months. They said they will have a board meeting this week and see.

I hope I can stop doing that. This isn't that kind of building. They will get me out of here.

No way. Its a very nice condo. I pay $1100 rent a month. Shouldn't be anybody telling me to do shit, for that price.

Pull this shit on them. They will back off.



Make sure you're wearing your black panthers shirt too.

You will have to get a copy of home owners association by laws. Every condo is different, my guess is there is a statement in the by laws about sat dishes . Since your just renting they probably wont show it to you, you will have to go through the condo owner to get a copy, who probably isnt going to want to cause waves with the association.JMO.

Sounds like a typical condo situation. I'd stand your ground until they offer a compromise - takes a lot for them to fight you legally.

HOA at my condo says no sattelites , I'm sure if yours is bigger than what they allow it will be coming down...
