What the นิติ can and can't fix

In a condo, the นิติ (short for นิติบุคคล, the juristic person) runs everything shared: lifts, pool, gym, car park, key cards, security, rubbish rooms and the parcel shelf. It collects the common-area fee from owners and posts the notices by the lifts: water shut-offs, pest spraying, pool closures. What it can't do is fix things inside your unit. The aircon, the fridge and the dripping tap belong to the เจ้าของ (owner), so the message goes to your landlord, who sends a ช่าง or asks you to book one. The office still helps: staff often know a good aircon technician and when the water is coming back. In an apartment block, the office downstairs is the landlord's own, and it usually does the repairs.
