Except as in the case of condominiums under the provisions of § 43-15A-29 , a lien holder who contributes to the erection, alteration, removal, or repair of two or more buildings or other improvements situated upon or removed to one lot, or upon or to adjoining lots, under or pursuant to the purposes of one general contract with the owner, may file one statement for his entire claim, embracing the whole area so improved. Alternatively, he may apportion his demand between or among the several improvements and shall assert a lien for a proportionate part upon each and upon the ground appurtenant to each respectively.
