1. Except to the extent provided by the declaration, subsection 2 and NRS 116.31135, the association has the duty to provide for the maintenance, repair and replacement of the common elements, and each unit’s owner has the duty to provide for the maintenance, repair and replacement of his or her unit. Each unit’s owner shall afford to the association and the other units’ owners, and to their agents or employees, access through his or her unit reasonably necessary for those purposes. If damage is inflicted on the common elements or on any unit through which access is taken, the unit’s owner responsible for the damage, or the association if it is responsible, is liable for the prompt repair thereof.
2. In addition to the liability that a declarant as a unit’s owner has under this chapter, the declarant alone is liable for all expenses in connection with real estate subject to developmental rights. No other unit’s owner and no other portion of the common-interest community is subject to a claim for payment of those expenses. Unless the declaration provides otherwise, any income or proceeds from real estate subject to developmental rights inures to the declarant.
3. In a planned community, if all developmental rights have expired with respect to any real estate, the declarant remains liable for all expenses of that real estate unless, upon expiration, the declaration provides that the real estate becomes common elements or units.
