Florida Condo & HOA Associations

Governing documents, built for Florida law.

More complete and current than the free forms floating around online — at a fraction of attorney cost. Editable document sets for Florida condominiums (Chapter 718) and homeowners' associations (Chapter 720), drafted for the post-2024 reforms — HB 1203, SIRS/milestone inspections, and the fining and election rules handled correctly. The smart starting point before your attorney review.

Why FlHOA Docs

Between free-but-generic and lawyer-but-expensive.

Free sample forms are generic and often years out of date — and Florida's law changed dramatically in 2024. A custom attorney draft runs thousands. These sit in the sensible middle — professionally complete, current with Florida law, and priced for the boards and managers who want it done right without the legal bill.

📜

More complete than free forms

Free samples skip what Florida actually requires. Every major provision maps to its statute — §718.104 condo contents, §720.3085 HOA liens, the SIRS and milestone rules — so nothing important is missing.

🔄

Current with the 2024 reforms

Florida overhauled community-association law with HB 1203 and the post-Surfside condo-safety statutes. Free forms and old documents rarely reflect these — these do, and a dated change log proves it.

Pricing

Two statutes. Two packages.

Florida splits condos (Ch. 718) and HOAs (Ch. 720) across two statutes — so there are two packages. Pick the one that matches your community, or start with just the election rules.

Chapter 718 Condo

$42 / one-time

Complete governing-document set for a Florida condominium association.

  • Declaration of Condominium (recorder-ready)
  • Bylaws — director cert, SIRS, 60-day challenge
  • Articles of Incorporation (Ch. 617)
  • Election Rules — secret ballot, no proxies
  • 12 months of update delivery

Election Rules

$12 / one-time

Both condo and HOA election procedures — the standalone entry option.

  • Ch. 718 condo rules (secret ballot, 20% turnout)
  • Ch. 720 HOA rules (§720.306(9), proxies OK)
  • Two editable Word templates
  • Red-bracket fill-in fields
Get Election Rules

Think of these as your professional first draft: far more complete than free samples, and ready for a quick attorney review instead of an expensive from-scratch drafting bill.

Why Nevada is different

Florida isn't one statute — it's two.

Florida governs condominiums under Chapter 718 and homeowners' associations under Chapter 720 — with genuinely different rules on reserves, inspections, fines, and elections. A template written for the wrong chapter is the classic Florida mistake:

Condo safety (post-Surfside) — Chapter 718 condos face milestone structural inspections and Structural Integrity Reserve Studies (SIRS). Chapter 720 HOAs do not.

HB 1203 (2024) — sweeping HOA reforms: director education, the independent fining committee, cure-before-hearing, and website posting for 100+ parcels.

Different elections — condos use secret ballots with no proxies; HOAs permit proxies and require an independent monitor at 100+ parcels.

Questions

Good to know.

Do these work for both HOAs and condos?

If your community is a condominium, you need the Chapter 718 Condo Package. If it's a planned community of houses with an HOA, you need the Chapter 720 HOA Package. Check whether your recorded document says 'Declaration of Condominium' (718) or 'Declaration of Covenants' (720).

Who prepares these templates?

They're drafted in-house and mapped section-by-section to NRS Chapter 116. FlHOA Docs is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice — these are professional self-help templates, the same model as any legal-forms library.

Do I need a lawyer?

These are templates you complete yourself. They're not a substitute for legal advice, and we recommend having a licensed Florida attorney review your finished document before your association adopts or records it — especially given how much Florida law changed in 2024.

What do I get, and how fast?

Editable Microsoft Word (.docx) files, delivered instantly at checkout through Gumroad. Complete the red-bracket fields, and you're ready for attorney review and adoption.

Will these stay current?

Florida amends its community-association statutes frequently. Package purchases include 12 months of update delivery, and a dated change log records every revision we make.
