Q: What are the advantages of a Condominium and how does condominium ownership work?

A: A condominium is a legal form of shared ownership, where the owner holds title to the individual condominium and a shared interest in the building and grounds common elements. A condominium allows for the financial benefits of ownership while leaving the chores of property upkeep and maintenance to our professional property managers. Residents will purchase their condominium homes outright, and pay a monthly “condo fee” to fund all shared common area expenses.

Q: What are the Common Element Fees at Vue Taché and what is included in the common element charge?

A: The common element “condo fee” will be based on your pro rata share of the common elements of the overall project. Current common element fees are expected to be approximately between $233-348 per month including sewer and water. Common element costs include all “common elements” or shared costs including (but not limited to) maintenance, grounds keeping and landscaping; service contracts; professional management; building insurance (owners require separate insurance for condominium contents and betterments); snow removal; common area lights, power, and heating/cooling; in suite and common area water and sewer including maintenance and replacement. Residents also gain access to the common outdoor park, terrace, dog run, a fitness studio and host kitchen lounge. Residents pay separately for telephone, Internet, cable TV, in suite hydro, contents and betterments insurance and realty taxes.

Q: As a unit owner will I have any part to play in the on-going operation and management of Vue Taché Condominiums?
