Los Angeles Condo Association & Building Directory

This directory covers 172 Los Angeles-area condo buildings across 14 neighborhoods, each linking to its own building profile. 3 of them currently list a known management company (2 distinct firms).

Buyers and owners contact condo associations to confirm rental and pet policies, request estoppel certificates and financials, verify special assessments, schedule move-ins, or ask about amenities and reserves before making an offer.

Search this directory for the building, then open its profile for the association and management details we track. Contacts and managers change over time, so confirm the current contact with the building before relying on it for a transaction — or tell us the building and we'll point you to the association.

The condo association (HOA) is the governing body of unit owners, while the management company is the firm the board hires to run day-to-day operations — billing, maintenance, vendor coordination and front-desk staffing. Most inquiries are handled by the management company.

The Davis-Stirling Common Interest Development Act is the California law governing condominium and homeowner associations. It sets the rules for how a board must operate — budgets and reserve disclosures, election procedures, access to records, notice requirements and limits on how assessments and fines are levied. Most of what an association can and cannot do to an owner traces back to it, so an association's own CC&Rs and bylaws have to be read alongside it rather than on their own.

SB-326 requires California condominium associations to have exterior elevated elements — balconies, decks, stairways and walkways with load-bearing components more than six feet above the ground — inspected by a licensed professional on a recurring cycle, with the findings reported to the board. Where an inspection identifies conditions posing an immediate threat, the association must act and may need to restrict use until repairs are made. Like Florida's milestone regime, it is a common trigger for special assessments, so ask for the building's most recent inspection report.

An estoppel certificate is a statement from the association confirming what a specific unit owes it — regular dues, any outstanding balance, special assessments already levied, and the transfer fees due at closing. It is ordered during a sale so the buyer knows exactly what obligations travel with the unit. Request it early: an assessment disclosed on an estoppel certificate is a normal reason for a buyer to renegotiate or withdraw.

At minimum: the current budget and how much sits in reserves, the most recent reserve study, minutes from the last several board meetings, the rules on renting and pets, and any notice of a special assessment, plus the most recent SB-326 inspection of balconies and walkways. Meeting records can help distinguish proposals from approved decisions. Ask for the current status and supporting documentation.

Each row is tied to a building profile in our Los Angeles research set, and management details are recorded only where we have confirmed them — 169 of the 172 buildings show no management company because none is confirmed, not because none exists. A directory entry does not establish that we have reviewed the association’s records.

Tell us the building and what you need — estoppel certificate, budget, reserve study, rules or meeting minutes — and we'll help you request it from the association or management company, or connect you with a licensed local agent who can order it as part of a purchase.
