The unit owner is not liable to a purchaser for the failure or delay of the association to provide the certificate in accordance with the time set forth in subsection (b).

Section 35-8A-411Release of liens. (a) In the case of a sale of a unit where delivery of an offering statement is required pursuant to Section 35-8A-402(c) or a disclosure is made pursuant to Section 35-8A-407, a seller shall record or furnish to the purchaser releases of all liens or an agreement to release any liens that encumber that unit and its common element interest, except liens on real estate that a declarant has the right to withdraw from the condominium, that the purchaser does not expressly agree in a written contract of sale which specifically identifies such lien and its amount to take subject to or assume, or provide a surety bond or substitute collateral for or insurance against the lien in the manner provided for liens on real estate in Section 35-11-233(b). (b) In conveying real estate to the association the declarant shall have that real estate released from: (i) all liens the foreclosure of which would deprive unit owners of any right of access to or easement of support of their units, and (ii) all other liens on that real estate unless the offering statement describes certain real estate which may be conveyed subject to liens in specified amounts.

Section 35-8A-412Conversion buildings. (a) A declarant of a condominium containing conversion buildings, and any person in the business of selling real estate for his or her own account who intends to offer units in such a condominium shall give each of the residential tenants and any residential subtenant in possession of a portion of a conversion building notice of the conversion no later than 60 days before the tenants and any subtenant in possession are required to vacate. The notice must set forth generally the rights of tenants and subtenants under this section and shall be hand-delivered to the unit or mailed by prepaid United States mail to the tenant and subtenant at the address of the unit or any other mailing address provided by a tenant. No tenant or subtenant may be required to vacate upon less than 60 days' notice, except by reason of nonpayment of rent, waste, or conduct that disturbs other tenants' peaceful enjoyment of the premises, and the terms of the tenancy may not be altered during that period. Failure to give notice as required by this section is a defense to an action for possession. (b) If a notice of conversion specifies a date by which a unit or proposed unit must be vacated, and otherwise complies with the provisions of Chapter 9A, the notice also constitutes a notice to terminate specified by that statute. (c) Nothing in this section permits termination of a lease by a declarant in violation of the terms of the lease. (Acts 1990, No. 90-551, p. 858, §4-112; Act 2018-403, §1.)

(a) Express warranties made by the declarant, an affiliate of the declarant, or any person in the business of selling real estate for his or her own account, to a purchaser of a unit, if relied upon by the purchaser, are created as follows: (1) Any affirmation of material fact or material promise which relates to the unit, its use, or rights appurtenant thereto, improvements to the condominium that would directly benefit the unit, or the right to use or have the benefit of facilities not located in the condominium, creates an express warranty that the unit and related rights and uses will conform to the affirmation or promise; (2) Any model or description of the physical characteristics of the condominium, including plans and specifications of or for improvements, creates an express warranty that the condominium will substantially conform to the model or description; (3) Any description of the quantity or extent of the real estate comprising the condominium, including plats or surveys, creates an express warranty that the condominium will conform to the description, subject to customary tolerances; and (4) A statement that a buyer may put a unit only to a specified use is an express warranty that the specified use is lawful. (b) Neither formal words, such as "warranty" or "guarantee," nor a specific intention to make a warranty, are necessary to create an express warranty of quality, but a statement purporting to be merely an opinion or commendation of the real estate or its value does not create a warranty.
