A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT

To amend Code Section 44-3-76 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to compliance with condominium instruments, rules, and regulations, so as to prevent an association from prohibiting the display of a for sale sign by a unit owner; to provide for related matters; to provide for an effective date; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.

"(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) of this Code section, no association shall prohibit a unit owner and all those entitled to occupy a unit from displaying a for sale sign within the unit, regardless of whether all of the units in the condominium complex have been sold. Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to prohibit the association from prescribing the type and design of the sign, so long as such requirements are reasonable."
