Under Stickney Ch. 19 § 19-14, property owners and managers involved in condominium conversions generally ensure that all advertising copy, listing photos, and sales materials are accurate and complete before publication or distribution. Compliant operators review marketing materials to confirm that no material facts—such as unit condition, fees, or legal status—are omitted or misrepresented. Maintaining thorough documentation of what information was disclosed, and when, is a common practice among operators seeking to demonstrate good-faith compliance with this provision.
