HOAs: Time is Running Out for FS 720.303(13) Compliance
If your HOA has 100+ parcels and is based in Florida, you must comply with FS 720.303(13) by January 1, 2025. This isn’t optional — it’s Florida law. Non-compliance could lead to lawsuits, state-level penalties, and community backlash.
What the Law Says (FS 720.303(13))
Florida Statute 720.303(13) requires that associations with 100 or more lots provide secure online access to important HOA documents through an owner-only portal.
The required documents include:
- Articles of Incorporation
- Bylaws and CC&Rs (Covenants, Conditions, & Restrictions)
- Budgets, audits, and financial reports
- Insurance certificates
- Meeting agendas and notices (posted 7 days in advance)
- Board member certifications and contracts
Why It’s Urgent
Too many Florida HOAs are unaware of this new legal requirement. The deadline is just around the corner. If your association isn’t fully compliant, you’re risking:
- Fines or injunctions from the DBPR
- Lawsuits from residents
- Loss of community trust
- Possible personal liability for board members
