FAQ

Ron DeSantis recently signed into law House Bill 1203 which adopted broad changes for homeowners associations throughout the state. Effective July 1, 2024, House Bill 1203 provides a comprehensive overhaul of many issues affecting HOAs, including director education, records maintenance, meeting requirements and fines.

Copies of the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the homeowners association can be obtained from the Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations. Copies of the governing documents may also be obtained directly from the homeowners association.

Iniums are primarily governed by Florida Statutes, the inium's governing documents (declaration, by-laws, articles of incorporation), and their rules and regulations. Generally, declarations supersede all other governing documents.

Generally, it is the laws that were in effect at the time the HOA documents were recorded. Your HOA documents are contracts between the HOA and its members so new laws cannot, generally, be applied retroactively to override them.

The Florida Homeowners' Association Act, Chapter 720 of the Florida Statutes, states that amendments to “governing documents” for homeowners' associations are not effective until they are recorded in the public records of the county in which the community is located.

The local law supersedes the rules and regulations of the HOA, meaning that HOAs must ensure they are operating under the law.

Chapter 720 of the Florida Statutes governs homeowners' associations (HOAs) in Florida. Unlike iniums or cooperatives, homeowners' associations typically govern single-family homes in a specific development or community.

What does it mean to HOA's? The simplified explanation is that the recorded covenants governing a community must be preserved before the end of a 30 year period beginning on the date they were recorded.

House Bill 1021, signed into law in June 2024, focuses on association governance to manage oversight of this type. Oceanside concrete structures, roofs, windows and elevators have limited lifespans. These items need to be repaired or replaced to protect residents' safety.
