What is Florida SB 4-D, and does it apply to my Miami condo?
Answered by AskBaily Editorial · Updated
Short answer
Florida SB 4-D (2022) is the post-Surfside condo-safety law. It mandates Milestone Inspections on condos 3+ stories at 25 years (coastal — within 3 miles of saltwater) or 30 years (inland), and requires fully-funded reserves (no waiver). Buildings that fail a Phase 2 structural inspection cannot be renovated unit-by-unit until the association completes remediation. Closing-delay risk on unresolved milestone reports is material.
