Hah. That's what I was told when I bought my first place, young grasshopper.
Developer did not leave. What followed was multiple lawsuits with legal demand for association change per the documents, plus unanimous vote by all owners, twice, obvious grand larceny and self payments on what limited records we had, enduring years of drunken email insult rants, some owners not paying dues for years, including the majority developer, some owners being foreclosed on for $50 in disputed fines, several lawsuits against the association and potentially myself by the same people I tried to help, lying turncoat personalities revealed, chaos, drug dealing, commercial drug growing, and daycare being run out of it, the building falling apart with three ceilings in my unit falling in, trash galore, incomplete shared expense agreements with a shared driveway and expenses, and about 2/3-3/4 of the small owners on the edge going into foreclosure rather than dealing with it all.
It all got better after turnover. Only the extensive cleanup bill and hard earned wisdom continues.
