Descripción

Many homeowners and HOA board members assume that when a dispute arises, the next step is simple… file a lawsuit. But in Florida, that assumption can cost you thousands of dollars. Under Florida Statute 720.311, most disputes in homeowners associations must go through alternative dispute resolution (ADR) before a lawsuit can even begin. That usually means pre-suit mediation, where both sides attempt to resolve the issue before stepping into a courtroom. If that step is skipped, a case can be delayed, dismissed, or become dramatically more expensive than necessary. In this episode of Condo Craze and HOAs, attorney Eric Glazer breaks down how the law actually works and explains: • When HOA disputes require mediation first • When disputes must go to arbitration instead • When you can go straight to court • Why the Florida Legislature created this system • The costly mistake homeowners and boards make when they skip the required process Understanding these rules can save homeowners and associations thousands of dollars in legal fees and prevent disputes from spiraling into unnecessary litigation. If you live in an HOA or serve on a board, this is one of the most important legal procedures to understand before taking action. ⸻ Watch Condo Craze and HOAs live every Sunday at 11 AM on YouTube.

Have Condos and HOAs Become Too Complicated to Self-Manage? (Airing 6/14/26)

This week on Condo Craze & HOAs, Eric Glazer sits down with Santiago Martin Grossy, Director of Association Operations at Affinity Management Services, to tackle a controversial question: Have community associations become too complicated to self-manage? Today’s boards are dealing with reserve studies, inspections, insurance challenges, collections, financial reporting, owner communication, and increasingly complex laws. So where does the board’s role end? What does a property manager actually do? What should a management company be doing behind the scenes? And why do some communities thrive while others seem stuck in constant crisis? ____ 📞 Call in live Sunday at 11am – 717-GLAZER8 (717-452-9378) 📺 Watch live on YouTube 👉 Subscribe for more Condo Craze and HOAs updates! 👉 Follow us for critical insights every association owner needs to know. ____ Most condo owners think they understand how community living works…After more than 30 years practicing condominium and HOA law in Florida, Eric pulls back the curtain on the real world of condos and HOAs, the fights, the politics, the hidden financial dangers, reserve funding, board battles, Surfside, special assessments, and the human side of community living that nobody talks about, in his new book, “What the Hell Did I Just Buy?”.

Florida Condos Are Getting Busted for Document Dumps (Airing 5/17/26)

A condo owner asked for records. The association responded with Dropbox links, banker boxes, binders, filing cabinets and thousands of pages of documents. Sounds compliant, right? This week on Condo Craze and HOAs, attorney Eric Glazer breaks down the shocking Florida condo records cases where associations got into legal trouble AFTER giving owners access to records. What is “reasonable access”? What can associations legally withhold? What does the new records checklist law require? And why can dumping documents actually create liability?
