A bill proposed in the state Legislature would increase the maximum filing fee paid by developers of condominiums and co-ops from $20,000 to $30,000 per project. Surprisingly, the bill has the support of both developers and buyers. The extra cash would go to the beefed-up Real Estate Finance Bureau, leading to quicker reviews of offering plans and action on residents' complaints about faulty new development. [NYT]
