Default Condo invaded by wharf borer beetles

Thanks for all the information everyone. I really appreciate it.
The location is Chicago, Illinois about 3 miles west from downtown.
I'm going to take some pictures of the building and i'll post links to
them here soon.

The building had some leaking problems in the beginning and I did see
water get in through the windows. This happened the first year i moved
in. I believe water was getting in through the roof but that was
repaired. That may have set the stage for the investation though. /

The 3rd unit hasn't sold yet so the developer still has control of the
association. Its difficult working with them because they are way out
in the suburbs and they don't speak English very well. After


There are only 3 units in the condo? Bad news when it comes to legal
action because you
can't spread the cost very well. As for not speaking English in
Chicago, if they can build
or buy a building, they speak enough. I'll bet they would be able to
read a letter from an
attorney.
