… our apartment is 177 units, so a grand total of 459 units, so why does our unit entitlement sit at 244 units…?
OK, I’m confused. Is your unit entitlement 177 or 244? In any case, unit entitlements are not calculated solely on the size of the total inhabitable area.
Also, if I’m reading this correctly, the roof doesn’t actually belong to you. It’s still common property and you only have exclusive use of it. It is not part of your lot and under certain, admittedly extreme and unlikely circumstances, could theoretically be resumed by the Owners Corp.
Even if your predecessor had bought the roof outright, I suspect, based on some of your other comments, that the other owners at the time might have decided it wasn’t worth the cost and hassle to adjust everyone’s unit entitlements.
