I own a condo with a four unit building. I have leaking water and it's causing damage to the tenant below me. The leak is due to a faulty furnace/disconnect in pcp piping. Am I financially responsible or is the home owners association?

If it's inside the four walls then it's generally your responsibility. But, unless you were negligent in causing or not promptly fixing the leak then you owe nothing.
