Built for the decision you’re actually facing.
The deadline clock
How 25/30/40/50-year and SB-4D milestone timelines actually trigger — and how to read your county letter before it becomes an emergency.
The engineer report, decoded
Phase I vs Phase II, what “substantial structural deterioration” means for your budget, and the line items boards consistently underestimate.
SIRS & reserves
The nine mandatory components, why reserves can no longer be waived, and how a reserve study becomes a real, phased scope of work.
Money & the vote
Reserves, special assessments, and loans — modeled so a volunteer board can make one defensible decision without a finance degree.
Insurance & lending
How recertification status quietly drives carrier non-renewal and lender questionnaires — and how to protect both.
Permits & sequencing
Why permitting is the hidden critical path, and how one licensed entity keeps inspection, permit, and repair from colliding.
Boards, managers, and owners staring at a deadline.
If your building is approaching a recertification or milestone year — or you just got the letter — this is the plain-English field guide we wish every board had on day one. No sales pitch. Just how the process really works in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach.
