Part 4/8:
Many condo associations have either failed to meet inspection deadlines or have chosen to neglect the pressing need for compliance. In Palm Beach County alone, nearly 200 out of 568 assigned buildings have not submitted required inspection applications, leading to potential fines for non-compliance. The financial burden of these inspections—initially pegged at about $30,000 but soaring to $60,000 for more comprehensive assessments—has driven many owners into a difficult position, forcing them to confront steep assessments that sometimes exceed $400,000.
