Summary

The bill adds a new section to Massachusetts law that permits tenants‑in‑common of a two‑unit building to ask a land court to partition the property by converting each unit into a separate condominium when no prior agreement exists. The court can order the conversion, require a master deed to be recorded, and impose reasonable conditions such as easements or cost allocations. This creates a clear legal pathway for owners to create condominiums and defines the court’s authority.
