Hello,
I am new to the co-op thing, but have been a park sloper for some time now, I am in the middle of a contract negotiation for a unit in a co-op in Park slope and don’t seem to be able to trust the lawyers and agents involved 100%

the co-op is self managed, and does not keep monthly meeting notes or regular financial records, they have sent over a couple years of tax returns showing a loss for the past 2 years, and now the maintenance got jacked up just as we are ready to sign.
am I getting screwed here, what do i need to be asking for to make sure that the building is running smoothly, and how can i find out if there is something shady going on before i get to meet with the board?

help
