THE CONDOMINIUM OF SHAME | M6 | 66 minutes

Slumlords, parking space trafficking, unpaid charges, elevators stuck, heating cut off and trash cans on the landings… In Villiers-le-Bel, in the Val-d’Oise, residents of the l’Orme condominium experience a real daily nightmare. Worn down by an endless war with their management agency, the residents are trying to fight to save what remains of the 218 properties in the building. Accord to ARC (the Association of Condominium Managers), the condominium’s agency is around 260,000 euros in debt to unpaid suppliers and many co-owners are said to owe more than 930,000 euros in charges to the condominium! The situation is getting worse year by year and solutions are not forthcoming. How the dream of becoming a home owner is turning into a nightmare.
