Supreme Court warns that debts from defaulting neighbours expire sooner than expected

A ruling by the Supreme Court establishes shorter limitation periods for claiming debts from defaulting neighbours in community property owners' associations.

The Supreme Court has issued a ruling that directly affects community property owners’ associations with defaulting neighbours, one of the main problems in residential buildings.

The resolution establishes that the limitation period for claiming debts from unpaid community fees is shorter than many communities believed, which could make it difficult to recover amounts owed if action is not taken swiftly.

Property and community administrators must pay close attention to these new legal criteria and act within the established deadlines to prevent debts from expiring and becoming uncollectable.

This judicial decision represents an important warning for all communities in the province of Alicante that maintain open proceedings against defaulting owners.
