The Department of Business and Professional Regulation Lacks Enforcement in South Florida

Attorney David Haber, who specializes in condo law, said when it comes to investigating HOAs and property management companies, Florida has a resource problem.

“They have passed laws that says there could be civil penalties, criminal liability, that’s great. Who is out there checking? The Department of Business and Professional Regulation is there to enforce rules, but they don’t have the funds to enforce the rules and the laws. They don’t have the money for all the investigators needed in all of the counties in Florida. The DBPR needs to parse out and the Division of Condominiums needs to be its own department. There’s so many people living in condominiums, said Haber.”
