  • It turns out there's a loophole in Florida for condos that are supposed to be meeting full reserves by 2025. As long as these buildings complete their 2025 budget before the end of 2024 they will not have to start funding full reserves, technically until 2026. However, this is just delaying the inevitable and buildings that intentionally kick the can down the road on this are likely the ones that are in the worst financial shape and probably the ones you want to avoid buying as a potential homebuyer.

      100% believe it. I live in a condo in a small tourist town in the Midwest. There’s no amenities, so the HOA fee is pretty low. But is it too low? If anybody mentions anything about any changes … well … if I mention it actually, people get all puffed up. There’s a ton of STRs and yearly rentals in the complex, so I’m thinking they just want their money and don’t care about anything else. Oh well …

    • @eliot5220
      @eliot5220 8 часов назад +4

      Condos are stupid. There should not be condos at all. It’s counterintuitive. Folks don’t want to be landlords. When you buy a condo you’re a landlord. You have all the responsibility but you don’t collect rents. The expenses on an apartment building are the same as a condo minus the individual units. The problem is there’s no income other than a measly HOA fee.

      After living in one I would never live anywhere that has an HOA. I would have taken better care of the building and when I brought up maintenance the President tried to foreclose on me by not accepting my monthly payment. I had to hire an attorney to pay my monthly fee. I sold and have no problem hiring someone to mow, shovel, plow. And I take care of little problems before they become big problems.

    I'd worry about safety if my association was skimping on inspections and maintenance. I'd much rather have neighbors that were proactive in maintenance - and you can tell a lot of your neighbors by looking at their cars and how they are maintained. If you see a ton of oil leaks on the parking lots and driveways, then the residents might be the type that puts things off.
    On permits: we have a place in Boston and the city is known to be tough to get permits for. What you have to do is find a contractor that knows the people in government that give these out and your contracting work will go a lot more smoothly if you find the right contractor.
    I hope your HOA and contractors get your building back up to spec. It's nice that you seem to be able to live outside your home when you want to.
    On floods: live at the top of a hill at least a few hundred feet above sea level.

    You left out the back story of the evacuation of that three story Ft. Lauderdale condo: the engineer hired to inspect the condo gave no notice to the HOA before he got the building condemned. The condo association is trying to reverse the condemnation. In the background, no doubt, is a developer who wants to buy up the property cheap so he or she can put up a giant beachfront high rise. Aside from the June 24, 2021 13 story Champlain Towers South (CTS) condo collapse, how many high condos have fallen in South Florida from "structural" issues? Zero. CTS collapsed because of massive damage to its limestone bedrock foundation caused by the excavation of the Terra Group's gigantic condo, Eighty Seven Park, located right across the de-mapped street from CTS. The excavation using pile drivers and possibly explosives shook CTS to its core, fracturing the limestone under the pool and garage.

    We've seen blowtorches, flamethrowers, and household lighters put to hempcrete walls. We've seen how in those videos, very little happens to the surface of the material: it doesn't go up in flames, it doesn't create black acrid smoke. For quite some time, we've all known that hempcrete is fireproof.
