De ce plătești reparația liftului din bloc dacă stai la parter. Un avocat spune ce cheltuieli au proprietarii • Newsweek România

Homeowners are required to pay for the maintenance of common areas in their buildings, even if they do not use them. Lawyer Gelu Pușcaș explains that costs for repairs, such as elevators and common utilities, must be shared among all owners based on their ownership share. This obligation exists regardless of whether an owner uses the elevator or has installed their own heating system. The law does not exempt owners from these costs, as common areas remain the responsibility of all. Even those living on the ground floor must contribute to elevator repairs, and costs for common gas and water systems are similarly shared. The legal framework ensures that all owners participate in the upkeep of shared facilities, regardless of their individual usage.
