Section 35-8-13 Common expenses and limited common expenses. The common expenses and limited
common expenses shall be charged to unit owners in such amount that the charge corresponds
approximately to their respective undivided interests in the common elements and limited common
elements as set forth or determined by the declaration and amendments thereto. The amount
of such expenses charged to each unit shall be a lien against such unit subject to the provisions
of Section 35-8-17. A unit owner shall, by acceptance of title, be conclusively presumed to

of a unit. However, the liability of a unit owner for such expenses shall be limited to amounts

and limited common elements in which he has an interest by waiver...

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
a common element. (b) Except as provided in subsection (a), if part of a unit is acquired
by eminent domain, the award must compensate the unit...

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...

under Section 35-8A-205(a)(8), the declarant shall prepare, execute, and record an amendment
to the declaration as specified in Section 35-8A-217 and comply with Section 35-8A-209. The
declarant is the unit owner of any units thereby created. The amendment to the declaration
must assign an identifying number to each new unit created, and, except in the case of subdivision
or conversion of units described in subdivision (2) of subsection (c), reallocate the allocated
interests among all units. The amendment must describe any common elements and any limited
common elements thereby created and, in the case of limited common elements, designate the
unit to which each is allocated to the extent required by Section 35-8A-208. (b) Development
rights may be reserved within any real estate added to the condominium if the amendment adding

Section 35-8-16 Liens against condominium property generally. (a) Except as otherwise provided
in Section 35-8-18, subsequent to recording the declaration as provided in this chapter and
while the property remains subject to this chapter, no lien shall arise or be effective against
the condominium property as a whole. During such period, liens or encumbrances shall arise
or be created only against each unit in the same manner and under the same conditions in every
respect as liens or encumbrances may arise or be created upon or against any other separate
parcel of real property subject to individual ownership; provided, that no labor performed
or materials furnished with the consent or at the request of a unit owner or his agent, his
contractor or subcontractor shall be the basis for the filing of a lien against the unit or
any other property of any other unit owner not expressly consenting to or requesting the same,
except that such express consent shall be deemed to be given by the...

Section 35-8A-105 Separate titles and taxation. (a) If there is any unit owner other than a
declarant, each unit that has been created, together with its interest in the common elements,
constitutes for all purposes a separate parcel of real estate. (b) If there is any unit owner
other than a declarant, each unit must be separately taxed and assessed, and no separate tax
or assessment may be rendered against any common elements for which a declarant has reserved
no development rights. (c) Any portion of the common elements for which the declarant has
reserved any development right may be separately taxed and assessed against the declarant,
and, if separately taxed and assessed, the declarant alone would be liable for payment of
those taxes. (d) If there is no unit owner other than a declarant, the real estate comprising
