H/O or Assn Responsibility for Repairs

Unit being sold. Current owner wants Assn to repair failing tape on firewall in attic. Failing after 20 yrs due to moisture/condensation cycle. On reading our B/Laws, We are in CT - I don't think Association responsibility - and would appreciate your input or comments. Thank you...
