Milestone inspections are a new requirement in Florida, designed to ensure the structural integrity of older condominiums and safeguard their residents.
Understanding Milestone Inspections
Milestone inspections are mandatory for condominiums that are 30 years old or older, as required by Florida Statute 553.899. This law aims to ensure the safety and structural integrity of older buildings, particularly in the wake of structural failures in similar properties. These inspections focus on evaluating the structural components of the building, identifying areas that are:
Deteriorated
Damaged
At risk of causing issues in the near future
The inspection is performed by a state-licensed design professional, and the findings are reported to the local government for review.
