At this time, Florida HOAs (governed under FS 720), CO-OPs (governed under FS 719), Timeshares (governed under FS 721), and Condominiums under 25-units (governed under FS 718) are not required to have websites. However, legislation passed on March 6, 2024 has tasked the Florida Division of Business and Professional Regulation (D.B.P.R.) with studying the content requirements for FS 718 associations.

Even though the groups outlined above are not required to have websites, there are still a few requirements for assocaitions that have websites, digital signage, or community channels. Every spring, CondoSites throughly studies legislation to make sure we are aware of changes to the laws so we can pass that information along to our communities to help keep them in compliance.

Since 2005, CondoSites has been providing websites to Florida condos and HOAs. Our product is fully compatible with the old and new sections of the "Sunshine Law" (a.k.a. Florida's Homeowner Association Act), and we can help guide you through the process of making sure your new community website is fully compliant with the law.

Florida House Bill HB 1243 proposes a requirement for homeowner associations governed under FS Chapter 720 to operate an association website by January 1, 2025 and dictates certain minimum content including official records. The content requirement differs from what is required for condominium associations governed under chapter 718.

Florida House Bill HB 1243 "died in the Commerce Committee". Websites for HOA"s governend under FS 720, CO-OPs governed under FS 719, Timeshares governed under FS 721, and Condominiums under 25-units governed by FS 718 remain optional. HOWEVER, as part of HB 1021, which was passed on March 6, 2024, the legislature is requiring the DBPR to complete a review of the website requirements for Condominiums.

The Division of Florida Condominiums, Timeshares, and Mobile Homes of the Department of Business and Professional Regulation shall complete a review of the website or application requirements for official records under s.718.111(12)(g), Florida Statutes, and make recommendations regarding any additional official records of a condominium association which should be included in the records maintenance requirement in the statute. The division shall submit the findings of its review to the Governor, the President of the Senate, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and the chairs of the legislative appropriations committees and appropriate substantive committees with jurisdiction over chapter 718, Florida Statutes, by January 1, 2025.

These findings may be shared with other groups which may further push for HOAs, CO-OPs, Timeshares, and small Condominium associations to have websites as well.
