Why does the legal description for my condo unit not list the assigned parking space and/or dock space?

Regardless of whether you “purchased” the exclusive USE of a specific numbered parking space (or dock slip), all you “own” is the right to USE that limited common element of the condominium complex. However, as a common element of the condominium (as set forth in the recorded Declaration of Condominium for your complex), the common elements/limited common elements are owned by the condo complex as a whole. The recorded agreements assigning the parking spaces are certainly enforceable as a matter of law as to parties bound by the agreements … but the unit owners do not own the parking space (or dock space) land portion in fee simple. Thus, we do not list them on any legal descriptions for condominium units (unless the space is truly owned in fee simple by the condo unit owner).
