Condo unit owner in a residential apartment building with 36 units. I think i am one (1) of five (5) condo owners, and 31 are rentals leased out by managing agent. On July 22, 2017, a fire occurred in the common area (basement) and wiped out the electrical grid causing the building to be evacuated. the 31 rentals had their leases cancelled, the unit owners were displaced and continue to be displaced, and carrying charges are waived during this period. my homeowners coverage allows 22000 in additional living expenses, i have consumed about $18,000. At this time, i have been advised by the agent that my apartment should be ready to be re-occupied in mid to late september but i can see there is still plenty of work to be completed, i am nervous that i will be out of pocket for additional time without any reimbursement- what can i do? i own my unit outright and my expenses are $600 , i will not be able to find any apartment at that cost... in november my temporary abode will be expired.
