Older condos have major issues to deal with.  The plumbing needs to be replaced as the rusted pipes have started to leak.  The cost for each owner must be about $10K.  Spalling repairs and other failing parts need to be fixed or replaced.  If sprinklers need to be installed, how are seniors with fixed income to pay for it in this highly taxed State?  FIRE PREVENTION on all dwellings should be advertised by the HFD but are not seen on TV.  Condo Associations need to ensure that all fire related apparatus (fire alarm, dry stand pipes, fire doors) are working and tenants know what to do (escape plan) should the fire alarm be activated.  Smoke and carbon dioxide detectors and fire extinguishers should be purchased.  These things will save lives too.  And is much cheaper and is for everyone.
