Maryland HB1211 clarifies unit owner responsibility for damage or destruction in condominiums.

Maryland HB1211 amends the law to specify that if damage or destruction to a condominium originates from a unit, the unit owner is responsible for the full cost of repair or replacement, up to $10,000. If the damage originates from common elements or an external event, the unit owner is responsible for restoring the damaged area. The council of unit owners must inform unit owners annually of their responsibilities. The bill also outlines procedures for distributing insurance proceeds and reallocating common element interests if a unit is not rebuilt.
