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
or units covered thereby; and any unit included under the lien of such mortgage may be sold
or otherwise conveyed or transferred subject thereto. The instrument creating any such mortgage
shall provide a method whereby any unit owner may obtain a release of his unit from the lien
of such mortgage and a satisfaction and discharge in recordable form upon payment to the holder
of the mortgage of a sum equal to the proportionate share attributable to his unit of the

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...

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-107 Eminent domain. (a) If a unit is acquired by eminent domain, or if part of
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

by eminent domain, the award must compensate the unit...
