Resources for Condos

There’s not one simple reason why people living in Miami Beach choose to be here. Some are natives. Others may have visited friends and/or family – and decided they, too, wanted to be here permanently. Whether you're just moving in or are part of a board committee, there are many resources available to you. There’s no better city in the world to call home!

Condominium Boards

Homeowner/ Condominium associations exist for the benefit of residents like you. They are designed to protect property values and preserve community enjoyment by residents. This is done by providing sound fiscal management, generating a long-term vision for the community, and establishing standards about upkeep and conduct that help maintain high property values.

Below are some resources on how to create an association and to ensure the members follow all rules and regulations.

Florida law (chapter 718 FSS) and Florida rules (chapter 61B FAC) govern the operation of condominium associations. Florida’s legislature has designated the Department of Business and Professional Regulation’s Division of Condominiums, Timeshares and Mobile Homes (DBPR) to investigate and enforce violations of the Condominium Act. Individuals with complaints about their condominium association or property manager need to file their complaint with DBPR.

DBPR has jurisdiction to investigate Condo Complaints related only to:

Financial issues related to operating budgets, reserve schedules, financial records and notices of meetings for budget or other financial-related meetings.
The maintenance of and unit owner access to association records
Elections
The procedural completion of structural integrity reserve studies.

How to File a Complaint

Visit Florida DBPR Website.
On the homepage, click the link "File a Complaint."
Depending on the type of complaint, choose either "Condominiums/Cooperatives" or "Community Association Managers and Firms."
New users create an account and returning users login to file the complaint.

Office of the Condominium Ombudsman

The Office of the Condominium Ombudsman develops policies and procedures to assist unit owners, boards of directors, board members, community association managers and other affected parties to understand their rights and responsibilities as outlined in Florida Law and the condominium documents governing their respective association.

The Office the Ombudsman also oversees the Election Monitor Program, where 15% of the total voting interest or six-unit owners, whichever is greater, may petition to appoint an election monitor to attend the annual meeting of the unit owners and conduct the election of directors.

Residents may email the Office of the Ombudsman at Ombudsman@MyFloridaLicense.com for additional condo-related questions and concerns.
