Questions About New Condo Requirements?
The Florida DBPR launched a website to clarify condo law changes with educational resources, FAQs and other important information.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Since the deadly collapse of the Champlain Towers South building in Surfside, Florida lawmakers have enacted three condominium-related bills that have impacted how owners, board members, community association managers and other stakeholders manage safety, maintenance and transparency-related issues in condo buildings.
The Florida Legislature sought to address structural integrity concerns, improve financial accountability and expand communication between the parties involved in the ownership and management of condominium properties. However, the stricter inspection and reserve funding requirements have also left some confused.
To provide clarity, the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation’s (DBPR) recently introduced a condominium information and resources website that’s designed to provide guidance and help key players navigate the changes. Through the site, associations, groups or organizations can request in-person or virtual presentations on topics that include association responsibilities, budgets and reserves and financial reporting.
The site also includes details about the three condo bills enacted since 2022, frequently asked questions and other important information about inspections, reserve funding and documentation, among other topics.
