If it's all assigned then likely you can ask if anyone else has offered to switch spots.

This happened to me last year when I bought a pre-sale and they assigned a spot with a big ass pole on one side, my wife can't park shit. Luckily some other owner didn't like their own spot, so we switched. It costed $250 in legal fees to amend the documents, but well worth it than deal with the headache of a spot you are gonna struggle parking.

I should ask around and hope someone will like to exchange but I doubt it; My spot is at the corner of the last floor. I am driving a SUV, it doesn’t have enough space to turn my car in it. I hope I am lucky like you, otherwise I will probably just leave my car in the visitor parking.

You should have asked the question carefully, basically the spot is too small and I dont think it's legal. I will advise my lawyer etc. Then maybe they would have a look.

If the spot is OK and you can really park don't worry too much. I think you just dont want to waste gas and time to go all the way down to the last spot, and I get it, totally agree with you.

The way you are describing it seems like you have purchased a studio. What's the sqft like 285? And they gave you half a parking spot while they assumed you will be driving a toyota echo.
