Massachusetts condominiums run through an organization of unit owners (corporation, trust, or association) under M.G.L. c. 183A § 10, which sets records-inspection and reporting duties; § 24 governs meetings, electronic participation, and unit-owner notice. Non-condo HOAs are governed as nonprofits under M.G.L. c. 180 plus their declaration.
M.G.L. c. 183A § 10 requires the condominium organization to keep records — the master deed, by-laws, meeting minutes, and financial records including receipts, expenditures, bank statements, and audits — "in an up-to-date manner within the commonwealth," "available for reasonable inspection by any unit owner" during business hours. Condominiums with 50 or more units need an annual CPA review. Section 24 lets the governing body meet by telephone, video, or other interactive electronic process; the body "shall notify all unit owners of such meetings and provide access information," and must take reasonable measures so owners can participate, including posing questions, with mail-in or electronic voting permitted when a quorum is present. Non-condominium HOAs follow the Nonprofit Corporation Law, c. 180, and their declaration for elections, meetings, and records.
No specific statutory penalty. A condo owner denied reasonable record inspection (c. 183A § 10) or meeting notice/access (§ 24) may seek to compel compliance in court. Non-condo HOA governance disputes are resolved under c. 180 nonprofit law and the declaration.
