What should a buyer never say in a co-op board interview?

Buyers should never ask the board questions - it signals entitlement. Never mention plans for major renovations or gut projects - boards fear noise and disruption. Never discuss subletting or investment intentions. Never reference attorneys or legal rights. The interview is about demonstrating that the buyer will be a quiet, respectful, financially stable shareholder who integrates seamlessly into the building community.
