Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47 § 47-273
Rights of tenants in conversion buildings.
Operative Text
The rights of residential tenants in conversion buildings are governed by sections 47-282 to 47-292, inclusive, and by section 47a-23c.
Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47-273 establishes that residential tenants living in buildings undergoing condominium or cooperative conversion are protected by a specific set of statutes—namely sections 47-282 through 47-292 and section 47a-23c—rather than being left without dedicated legal protections during the conversion process. This provision serves as a gateway rule, directing readers to the substantive rights and procedures that apply in conversion scenarios. It signals that Connecticut law treats conversion buildings as a distinct category requiring its own regulatory framework.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers overseeing a condominium or cooperative conversion in Connecticut should be aware that Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47-273 points to sections 47-282 through 47-292 and section 47a-23c as the governing rules for residential tenants in those buildings. Compliant operators typically familiarize themselves with each of those referenced sections to understand notice requirements, tenant protections, and procedural obligations that apply throughout the conversion. Overlooking any of the cross-referenced statutes can expose an operator to claims that tenant rights under this framework were not honored.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47-273, if you live in a building being converted to condominiums or a cooperative, your rights as a residential tenant are governed by a dedicated set of Connecticut statutes—sections 47-282 through 47-292 and section 47a-23c. Those cross-referenced sections typically address matters such as notice periods, purchase rights, and eviction protections specific to conversion situations. Tenants who believe their rights under this framework have been violated may consider reviewing those statutes directly, contacting a local tenant-rights organization, or raising the relevant provisions as a defense in any eviction or displacement proceeding.
