Suffolk County's housing landscape is dominated by dense urban multifamily stock: the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey estimates a homeownership rate of roughly 36–37% in Suffolk County, far below the national average, reflecting a market where condominiums and rental buildings make up the vast majority of the housing stock. Condo associations in Boston must also navigate the city's Condominium and Cooperative Conversion Ordinance — administered by the Mayor's Office of Housing — which requires any pre-1983 building with four or more rental units seeking conversion to obtain a Conversion Plan and Conversion Permit, and mandates tenant protections including a one-year lease extension and a right of first refusal to purchase; the ordinance was amended in March 2021 and violations carry fines of $300 or more per violation per day. At the state level, all Massachusetts condominium associations operate under Chapter 183A of the Massachusetts General Laws, which governs how condominiums are established and managed.
