Five-year DBPR trend

Condominium complaints reached 3,863.

Florida’s Division of Condominiums reported a 164% increase between fiscal years 2020–2021 and 2024–2025.

The total increased 44.2% in the latest year alone. Complaint volume does not establish that a violation occurred, but it does show the growing workload around records, meetings, financial procedures, inspections, repairs, and association accountability.

Florida condominium reporting

State activity as of November 30, 2025.

16,104Condominium associations had created the required DBPR online account.
7,836Associations had reported completion of a Structural Integrity Reserve Study.
48.7%Reported SIRS completions divided by created accounts—a context ratio, not a compliance rate.

Not every association represented by an online account is necessarily subject to SIRS requirements. Eligibility depends on building and statutory criteria. Source: Florida DBPR, December 1, 2025 report.

Inspection clock

Eight deadlines and thresholds to keep visible.

30 years

Initial milestone age

Applicable residential condominium and cooperative buildings generally enter the milestone program at 30 years.

25 years

Local coastal discretion

A local enforcement agency may set the initial milestone at 25 years based on local circumstances, including proximity to salt water.

10 years

Repeat interval

After the initial milestone inspection, the statutory cycle generally repeats every ten years.

14 days

Owner notification

After receiving the local agency’s written inspection notice, the association must notify unit owners within 14 days.

180 days

Phase-one window

Phase one must generally be completed within 180 days after the building owner receives the written notice.

45 days

Report distribution

After receiving the applicable inspection report, the association must distribute the inspector-prepared summary within 45 days.

365 days

Repair commencement ceiling

Required ordinances must provide that repairs for substantial structural deterioration commence within 365 days after the phase-two report is received.

3+ stories

Building-height trigger

The milestone statute applies to covered residential condominium or cooperative buildings of three habitable stories or more.

Simplified from Florida Statutes §553.899. Exceptions, local ordinances, extensions, building facts, and later amendments can affect a specific property.

2026 Atlantic outlook

Seasonal planning numbers—not a Tampa Bay landfall forecast.

NOAA’s updated outlook assigns a 70% probability to each activity range for the full Atlantic basin.

7–13

Named storms

The updated range includes the two named storms recorded when NOAA issued the outlook.

2–6

Hurricanes

Forecast range for storms reaching hurricane strength across the Atlantic basin.

0–2

Major hurricanes

Forecast range for Category 3, 4, or 5 hurricanes across the basin.

Jun–Nov

Official season

The Atlantic season runs June 1 through November 30, with most activity typically during August through October.

NOAA states that seasonal outlooks do not predict whether a particular locality will be affected. Read the current NOAA outlook and limitations.

Capital and insurance context

Prices rose over five years while insurance costs diverged by county.

FHFA indexes measure changes in single-family values, not the price of a typical condominium. Florida OIR premiums are reported averages and can differ materially by carrier, insured value, deductible, coverage, and property characteristics.

St. Petersburg–Clearwater–Largo division−0.07%−0.09%+43.61%216
Florida+0.18%+0.96%+37.47%41

Metro figures use FHFA’s not-seasonally-adjusted All-Transactions Index; the state figure uses the seasonally adjusted Purchase-Only Index. Rankings are based on one-year change within each table. FHFA HPI datasets.

Hillsborough homeowners

Average annual premium including wind coverage reported by Florida OIR as of September 30, 2025.

$4,044

Pinellas homeowners

15.1% above the Hillsborough average in the same OIR dataset.

Condo multi-peril policies

874,920 in the voluntary market and 50,382 with Citizens in 2025Q3.

94.56%

Voluntary multi-peril share

Citizens represented the remaining 5.44% of reported condominium multi-peril policies.

20,698

Condo wind-only policies

4,182 in the voluntary market and 16,516 with Citizens in 2025Q3.

79.80%

Citizens wind-only share

The voluntary market represented 20.20% of reported condominium wind-only policies.

OIR figures exclude surplus-lines policies. The 2025 premium figures include wind coverage; they should not be treated as a directly comparable trend against the prior report’s undifferentiated averages. Florida Property Insurance Stability Report, January 2026.

Workforce and operating context

The labor market behind property service delivery.

The BLS metro area includes Hillsborough, Pinellas, Hernando, and Pasco counties. Wage figures are cross-industry means, not recommended vendor rates or TrustPoint compensation data.

Primary-source directory

Official publishers behind the dashboard.

Use the linked agencies to confirm the latest release, methodology, geographic scope, and limitations before applying a public statistic to a specific property. Their identities are shown only to identify the source; no affiliation or endorsement is implied.

How to use the numbers

Convert public context into property-specific questions.

  • Confirm the building’s certificate-of-occupancy date, height, ownership form, and local enforcement requirements.
  • Track the current SIRS, milestone report, funding schedule, repair status, owner notices, and DBPR filings in one register.
  • Compare population and housing trends with staffing, vendor capacity, service levels, and capital-project timing.
  • Use hurricane outlooks to trigger readiness reviews—not to reduce preparation when seasonal activity is forecast below normal.
  • Record the source, release date, calculation, owner, and next refresh date for every dashboard measure.

Hypothetical worked example

Regional statistics are used as a property finding

A fictional report uses a county-wide measure to explain an individual building issue. The geography and observed population do not directly describe that building.

Original fictional example · no completed client assignment or property inspection is represented.

Useful working output: A contextual statement with the inference boundary and missing local evidence stated.

Adapt the record request to authorized access, governing documents and the actual property. The example does not verify any unknown input or replace a professional conclusion.

When to use it

A regional figure is used to support a property decision.

What the evidence does not prove

Do not use county-level context as a measurement of one community.

What to verify before acceptance

Confirm geography, reference period, unit and original source, and identify the property-level evidence still needed.

Original proposed coordination checks · adapt to authorized access, the actual obligation and the appropriate professional review. These are not findings about your property.

Follow the related handoff workflow · Read the review definitions

Put the guidance to work

Keep geography and period attached to the number

The two-county population total and the broader BLS metropolitan labor area describe different populations. Do not use one denominator to calculate a rate from the other.

Five-year Census estimates are not a single-year rent survey, and FHFA single-family indexes are not condominium sale prices. Insurance averages from an older reporting period are historical context rather than a quotation.

For a board paper, preserve the source URL, release or reference period, units, and calculation. Recheck the issuing agency before a material decision and disclose whether the measure is provisional, revised, or historical.

Can these regional figures value a condominium?

No. County estimates and single-family price indexes provide context. A property-specific valuation needs relevant comparables and qualified analysis of the actual unit, building, and market.

Dataset provenance and update notes

Review date: October 3, 2026. Reference dates remain attached to each observation. The CSV now includes source_url, reviewed_at and interpretation fields; the grouped JSON has schema version 2. Historical 2024 insurance rows remain in the CSV and in historical_property_insurance in JSON.

Labor indicators now use August 2026 preliminary BLS figures; counts reported in thousands are converted to people with their original rounding. Premium figures displayed above use the September 2025 OIR observations with wind coverage identified. The dashboard is a selected source snapshot, not a live feed or a claim that every measure is the newest available series.

Read source context and use terms.

Source review and comparability

The October 6, 2026 review checked the displayed Census county observations, BLS labor and wage tables, NOAA outlook, FHFA summary tables, OIR county premium and condominium policy tables, DBPR complaint series and milestone-inspection timing. Historical periods and preliminary labels remain part of the observations.

The DBPR November 2025 account and study counts remain a historical source snapshot. Their context ratio is not a compliance rate; verify current reporting definitions and the applicable population with the issuing agency before interpretation.

The October 9, 2026 follow-up checked three August 2026 preliminary BLS observations: civilian labor force, unemployed people and unemployment rate. The CSV and grouped JSON agree with the issuing table; those values are unchanged. This limited check does not refresh or verify every dashboard observation.

The same follow-up compared eight May 2025 occupational wage, employment and share observations with the BLS release published July 7, 2026. The six hourly wage measures and two office-support measures agree with the source. Other dataset observations retain their earlier review scope.

Pinellas has the higher population density despite its smaller population total. Density is a geographic measure, not a measure of building condition or property risk.

Source: U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts, Hillsborough County and Pinellas County. Fields checked October 15, 2026. Each bar is scaled to the larger county value within its own view; bar lengths across different views are not comparable. Density retains the 2020 Census reference period.

For a property decision, add the actual unit count, asset inventory, service history and access constraints. Check comparability before drawing a conclusion.
