The article argues that the Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act (TOPA) is fundamentally unworkable, despite its return. The SPOA contends that the legislation, even in its revised form, presents significant challenges to small property owners in Massachusetts.
The SPOA's stance is that TOPA remains unworkable at its core, meaning the fundamental issues with the law have not been resolved. This suggests that the legislation creates barriers or difficulties for small property owners that are inherent to its structure.
