do property management companies pay up front for roof replacement

do property managers pay for repairs

No, property managers do not typically pay for repairs with their own money; instead, they use the property owner's funds, often from a reserve account they manage, to pay for repairs. The property owner is ultimately responsible for the cost of repairs, which are coordinated by the property manager according to the management agreement.

is sc a community property state

No, SC is not a community property state; it uses equitable distribution to divide marital property. In a divorce, assets and debts are distributed in a manner the court considers fair, though not necessarily equally. Property acquired before marriage, by gift, or through inheritance is typically treated as separate property and excluded from division.
