    What is the deadline for Florida SIRS in 2026?
    The initial statutory deadline for completing a Structural Integrity Reserve Study (SIRS) in Florida was December 31, 2024, with extended allowances pushing final completions through 2025. In 2026, associations are now in full enforcement and implementation phases. All budgets adopted on or after January 1, 2025, must legally incorporate these structural funding requirements. Failure to comply can result in severe breach-of-duty liabilities for board members.
    Can a Florida condo board waive reserves after HB 913?
    No. Following the passage of recent structural safety legislation and subsequent updates in HB 913, condominium associations operating under Chapter 718 are strictly prohibited from waiving or reducing funding for items listed under the Structural Integrity Reserve Study. Regardless of membership voting, funding for critical components (such as the roof, structure, fire protection systems, and plumbing) is completely non-waivable.
    How often must an insurance appraisal be updated in Florida?
    Pursuant to Florida Statute 718.111(11), condominium associations are required to obtain an updated independent replacement cost valuation (insurance appraisal) at least once every 3 years. Ensuring an accurate, up-to-date valuation protects the community from being underinsured amidst shifting Florida construction costs.
