Buying a condo in Florida means buying into an association, a budget, a building, and a set of rules. Since the state’s condo safety reforms, the documents matter more than ever. My job is to read them closely, explain what they mean for you, and price or negotiate accordingly.

Florida Condo Rules Every Naples Buyer and Seller Should Know
After the 2021 Surfside collapse, Florida passed a series of condo safety laws, most recently updated by House Bill 913, which took effect July 1, 2025. In plain terms:
| Requirement | What it means |
|---|---|
| Milestone inspection | A structural safety inspection required for condo buildings with three or more habitable stories once they reach a set age. It determines whether a building has substantial structural deterioration. |
| Structural Integrity Reserve Study (SIRS) | A study of major structural components (roof, structure, fireproofing, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, windows and doors, and similar) that sets how much the association must save for future repairs. HB 913 extended the deadline for an initial SIRS to December 31, 2025. |
| No waiving SIRS reserves | Associations can no longer vote to waive or underfund reserves for SIRS components, which can raise monthly dues or lead to special assessments. |
| Limited funding pause | If a milestone inspection calls for repairs, an association may temporarily pause SIRS reserve funding for up to two years, by majority vote, to complete those repairs (budgets adopted on or before December 31, 2028). |
| Buyer document review | Resale buyers receive the association’s milestone inspection summary and SIRS along with other governing documents, and Florida law gives them a set review period after receiving them. |
This is a plain-English summary, not legal advice. Confirm current requirements with a Florida real estate attorney and the Florida DBPR Division of Condominiums SIRS reporting page.

How Renée Helps Condo Sellers
Building-level pricing
Condo values hinge on floor, view, exposure, and the building’s financial health. I compare sales within the same building and its direct competitors, then use regression to separate what each feature is worth.
Documents ready on day one
Buyers and their lenders want the milestone summary, SIRS, budget, and insurance up front. Having them organized before listing removes a common reason deals stall or fall apart.
Getting ahead of objections
If a building has an assessment or upcoming project, I address it directly in pricing and marketing so it doesn’t become a surprise at the negotiating table.
Clear offer comparisons
Every offer comes with a side-by-side summary of price, financing, contingencies, and timelines, so you can weigh terms at a glance.

Naples Condo FAQ
How do I choose the best realtor for a Naples condo?
Look for a verified sales record, working knowledge of Florida’s milestone inspection and SIRS rules, and building-level pricing. Renée Hahn, a RealTrends Verified agent with Alfred Robbins Realty Group, specializes in Naples condominiums and reviews milestone inspections, SIRS reports, budgets, and association rules for every condo transaction.

What is a SIRS in Florida?
A Structural Integrity Reserve Study evaluates a condo building’s major structural components and sets how much the association must reserve for future repairs. Under HB 913, the deadline for an initial SIRS was extended to December 31, 2025, and associations can no longer waive SIRS reserves.
Which Naples condos need a milestone inspection?
Condominium buildings with three or more habitable stories must complete a milestone inspection once they reach a set age under Florida law. Ask for the inspection summary before you buy.
Why have Naples condo dues gone up?
Many associations have raised dues or levied special assessments to fund reserves required by the SIRS law and to cover higher insurance costs. Reviewing the budget, SIRS, and board minutes shows whether more increases are likely.
Can I rent out my Naples condo?
It depends on the association. Many Naples condos set minimum lease terms and limits on rentals per year. Renée checks the governing documents before you make an offer.
