a unit is acquired by eminent domain leaving the unit owner with a remnant which may not practically
or lawfully be used for any purpose permitted by the declaration, the award must compensate
the unit owner for the unit and its interest in the common elements, whether or not any common
elements are acquired. Upon acquisition, unless the decree otherwise provides, that unit's
allocated interests are automatically reallocated to the remaining units in proportion to
the respective allocated interests of those units before the taking, and the association shall
promptly prepare, execute, and record an amendment to the declaration reflecting the reallocations.
Any remnant of a unit remaining after part of a unit is taken under this subsection is thereafter

units by eminent domain specified in Section 35-8A-107, a condominium may be terminated only

Section 35-8-18 Blanket mortgage on condominium property. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this chapter, if the declaration or bylaws so permit, the entire condominium property or
some or all of the units included therein may be subject to a single or blanket mortgage constituting
a first lien thereon created by recordable instrument by all of the owners of the property

of the mortgage of a sum equal to the proportionate share attributable to his unit of the
then outstanding balance of unpaid principal and accrued interest and any other charges then

and (e), all common expenses must be assessed against all the units in accordance with the

subsection (b), or Section 35-8A-313(h), the association is responsible for maintenance, repair,
and replacement of the common elements, and each unit owner is responsible for maintenance,
repair, and replacement of his or her unit. Each unit owner shall afford to the association
and the other unit owners, and to their agents or employees, access through his or her unit

on any unit through which access is taken, the unit owner responsible for the damage, or the
association if it is responsible, is liable for the prompt repair thereof. (b) In addition
to the liability that a declarant as a unit owner has under this chapter, the declarant alone

Section 35-8A-215 Use for sales purposes. A declarant may maintain sales offices, management
offices, and models in units or on common elements in the condominium only if the declaration
so provides and specifies the rights of a declarant with regard to the number, size, location,
and relocation thereof. Any sales office, management office, or model not designated a unit
by the declaration is a common element, and if a declarant ceases to be a unit owner, he or
she ceases to have any rights with regard thereto unless it is removed promptly from the condominium
in accordance with a right to remove reserved in the declaration. Subject to any limitations
in the declaration, a declarant may maintain signs on the common elements advertising the
condominium. The provisions of this section are subject to the provisions of other state law,
and to local ordinances. (Acts 1990, No. 90-551, p. 858, §2-115; Act 2018-403, §1.)...

Section 35-8A-317 Other liens affecting the condominium. (a) Except as provided in subsection
(b), a judgment for money against the association if recorded is not a lien on the common
elements, but is a lien in favor of the judgment lienholder against all of the units in the
condominium at the time the judgment was entered. No other property of a unit owner is subject
to the claims of creditors of the association. (b) If the association has granted a security
interest in the common elements to a creditor of the association pursuant to Section 35-8A-312,
the holder of that security interest shall exercise its right against the common elements
before its judgment lien on any unit may be enforced. (c) Whether perfected before or after
the creation of the condominium, if a lien other than a deed of trust or mortgage, including
a judgment lien or lien attributable to work performed or materials supplied before creation
of the condominium, becomes effective against two or more units, the...

of the association and the unit owners whose units are affected by the amendment. (b) Except
as the declaration otherwise provides, a limited common element may be reallocated by an amendment
to the declaration executed by the unit owners between or among whose units the reallocation
is made. The association shall prepare, execute, and record the amendment which is subject
