- Milestone inspections under section 553.899, Florida Statutes, administered by the local enforcement agency

Condominium and cooperative buildings three habitable stories or more reach milestone inspection at 30 years from certificate of occupancy and every 10 years after. A local enforcement agency may determine that local circumstances, including proximity to salt water, warrant a 25-year first inspection. That is a local determination, not a statewide rule.
Repair on an occupied building brings logistics with it: swing-stage access, resident notice, and phasing that keeps a building livable while its envelope is open.
If one of these reads like your building, start here.
- A milestone inspection is due, or a local enforcement agency has sent notice
- A structural integrity reserve study has to be completed or updated
- Water is entering units and nobody has established where it starts
- Repair bids are in hand and the board wants the scope reviewed before signing
- A repair project is under way and needs Contract Administration and Construction Observations
