Why Orlando is different

Resort-condo buyers especially benefit from a structured review of restrictions, management contracts, and reserve funding.

Resort condo management contracts

Resort condominiums often carry management agreements with material economic and termination terms. We surface the duration, fees, and exit provisions.

Short-term rental rules

STR-eligibility varies block by block. We flag the documented rules, recent amendments, and any pending votes.

Florida-specific guides

Florida law applied to your documents

Florida condo document review

Florida condo buyers face one of the most document-intensive due diligence processes in the country. After a series of legislative reforms triggered by the 2021 Champlain Towers South collapse, state law now requires associations to produce milestone inspection reports, Structural Integrity Reserve Studies, and updated reserve budgets — on top of the governing documents, meeting minutes, and insurance summaries that have always mattered. Knowing which documents to request, and what to look for in each one, is the difference between a well-informed purchase and an expensive surprise.

Florida HOA document review

Buying into a Florida homeowners association is a fundamentally different transaction from buying a condominium, and the document review reflects that difference. Where condo buyers work through Chapter 718, HOA buyers operate under Chapter 720 — a statute with different disclosure timelines, different reserve obligations, and governance rules that were significantly tightened by HB 1021 and HB 1203 in 2024. Understanding what documents to request, and what Chapter 720 actually requires the association to produce, is the starting point for any HOA purchase in Florida.

Florida HOA and condo governance risk

How an association governs itself determines whether it maintains the building, collects reserves, enforces rules fairly, and communicates honestly with owners. Florida's 2024 and 2025 legislative sessions introduced the most sweeping governance reforms in recent memory — tightening record-keeping, restricting fines, mandating online transparency, and increasing accountability for managers and board members. For buyers, those reforms created a new baseline to measure associations against. An association that is not meeting post-2024 governance standards is a meaningful due diligence finding, independent of any physical or financial concern.

Condo document review

A condo document review is the structured analysis of every disclosure document your seller or association has provided — declaration, bylaws, rules, reserve study, budgets, financials, meeting minutes, insurance summary, estoppel or resale certificate, and any pending special assessment notices. Done well, it tells you exactly what you are buying. Done in a hurry — or as a chat session against a single PDF — it misses the cross-references where real risk lives.

HOA document review

An HOA document review reads the full association document set — declaration or deed restrictions, CC&Rs, bylaws, resale or disclosure certificate, current budget, audited financials, meeting minutes, and any enforcement history — and surfaces the items that actually affect your ownership cost, your usage rights, and your exposure to surprise assessments. HOA reviews have a different shape than condominium reviews, and treating them as the same process produces incomplete findings.

Governance risk

An association's governance health is a leading indicator of every other risk. Boards make decisions about reserve funding, repair scope, insurance coverage, and vendor relationships. Functional boards make those decisions transparently and on time. Dysfunctional boards defer them, obscure them, or make them for the wrong reasons — and the deferred decisions show up later as assessments, deteriorated infrastructure, and insurance problems. A governance review reads meeting minutes, election and recall records, financial controls, and dispute history across multiple years to surface the patterns that precede financial problems.
