Florida is the capital of 55 and over communities. But many associations misunderstand what it takes to legally maintain that status.

In this episode of Condo Craze and HOAs, attorney Eric Glazer explains:
• The three legal requirements under HOPA
• Why the 80% rule matters
• The compliance mistake many boards make

Florida lawmakers are considering HB 657, a bill that would create a formal process allowing homeowners to terminate their HOA.
At first glance, that might sound like a dream for frustrated homeowners.
But what happens to private roads, stormwater systems, insurance, and shared amenities once an HOA disappears?
In this episode of Condo Craze & HOAs, attorney Eric Glazer breaks down the proposed law, how termination wou...
For decades, Florida required mediation before most HOA disputes went to court. It was designed to reduce lawsuits and control legal costs for homeowners.
HB 657 could change that.
If mediation is removed and disputes start in court, what happens next? More lawyers? More fees? More assessments?
We break down the bill, and what this could mean for condo and HOA owners across Florida.

No more “we’ve got this.”
MANDATORY professional management.
Is this smart oversight after years of new regulations…or government overreach?

• Choosing the right structural engineer
• Contractor selection and pre-bid meetings

This week on Condo Craze and HOAs, Eric Glazer walks through a real condo election case he personally handled, where dozens of ballots were tossed.
Can boards reject ballots over signatures, envelopes, or who dropped them off?
What feels like a “small technicality” might actually void the entire election.
If you live in a condo or HOA, serve on a board, or manage an association, this one matters.
