How it works
The mechanics of Cash Free
Fee Structure
The Hutton fee is disclosed for the project and, under the published typical structure, becomes payable when deeds are delivered. Results and obligations vary by building.
Cost Integration
Depending on the approved plan and lender availability, some obligations may be included in new financing. Owners may also choose or be required to satisfy obligations in cash.
Ongoing Costs
Condominium common charges fund shared operations, while unit taxes and mortgages generally become individual obligations. Actual costs depend on the adopted budget and financing.
Key difference
Real Estate Taxes: Co-op vs. Condo
Cooperative
Taxes paid by the co-op corporation from assessments collected from shareholders. Indirect and collective.
Condominium
Each owner receives an individual tax bill. Direct ownership, individual accountability. The association pays no real estate taxes.
Responsibility for common elements continues through the condominium association, but budgets, insurance, reserves, and owner obligations are determined by the project documents.
