Associations in the Miami area

The county’s condominiums run from the Brickell and Edgewater towers on Biscayne Bay to the barrier islands of Miami Beach, Surfside, Bal Harbour and Sunny Isles Beach, then inland to older mid-rise and garden communities in Kendall, Hialeah, Doral and Miami Lakes. A large share of the buildings are three habitable stories or taller, which puts them inside the SIRS rule, and many oceanfront buildings date from the 1960s to the 1980s.

Surfside, the milestone inspection and the county recertification

The collapse of Champlain Towers South in Surfside in June 2021 led directly to the 2022 Florida law that created the structural integrity reserve study and the milestone inspection. Miami-Dade already ran its own recertification program for older buildings, so many associations here have the county recertification, the state milestone inspection and the SIRS on overlapping timelines. The statute lets the SIRS be completed together with the milestone inspection; ask each firm whether it can schedule the two visits together and whether its engineer will sign both.

The structural integrity reserve study page sets out who may perform a SIRS and what it must cover.

Distance and the fee in Miami

Several firms on our list are based in Miami-Dade itself, so the drive rarely changes the fee. What does change it in a high-rise is access: the number of floors, the garage, the roof equipment and whether the facade can be seen from balconies or needs a lift or a drone.

Proposals from firms in different cities will differ on the level of service and the travel line before they differ on the fee. Comparing proposals sets out what to read first, and the firms near you page explains how distance is priced.

What Florida law says

Florida is one of the states that writes a reserve study into law. Under Fla. Stat. 718.112(2)(g) (SIRS); 718.112(2)(f) (reserves); 720.303(6) (HOA reserves), associations must have a study SIRS at least every 10 years; the rule applies to residential condominiums (and cooperatives) with buildings three habitable stories or higher; four-family dwellings exempt. HOAs under ch. 720 have no SIRS requirement.

The statute also says who may do the work: Visual inspection performed or verified by a Florida-licensed engineer or architect, or a CAI Reserve Specialist or APRA Professional Reserve Analyst. Ask a firm to confirm, in its proposal, that the person signing the report meets that test.

On disclosure: Within 45 days of receiving the SIRS the association must distribute it or notify owners it is available, and file a statement with the Division. Officers and directors must sign an affidavit acknowledging receipt.

HB 913 (ch. 2025-175) set the SIRS threshold at three habitable stories, raised the non-specified component threshold from $10,000 to $25,000 with CPI indexing, barred SIRS preparers from doing the repairs, and added line-of-credit and pooled-reserve options. 2026 session: SB 722 (Condominium Structural Integrity Reserve Studies) died in committee on March 13, 2026.

Existing unit-owner controlled associations had to complete a SIRS by December 31, 2025; where combined with a milestone inspection, no later than December 31, 2026. Owner-controlled associations may not waive or reduce SIRS reserves for budgets adopted on or after December 31, 2024.

General information checked against the statute, not legal advice. Governing documents can require more than the law does.

Questions from boards in Miami

Does every Miami condominium need a SIRS?

Only residential condominium and cooperative buildings of three or more habitable stories, under section 718.112(2)(g) of the Florida Statutes. A garden community of two-story buildings still needs ordinary reserves under section 718.112(2)(f), and a homeowners association under chapter 720 has no SIRS requirement.

Can the same firm do the milestone inspection and the SIRS?

Often, yes: many engineering firms offer both, and the statute allows the SIRS to be completed together with the milestone inspection. Since 2025 a firm that prepares the SIRS may not also perform the repairs it recommends, so keep the study and the construction contract separate.

Is a reserve study required in Florida?

Florida law requires a structural integrity reserve study for condominium and cooperative buildings of three or more stories, at least every 10 years (Fla. Stat. 718.112(2)(g) (SIRS); 718.112(2)(f) (reserves); 720.303(6) (HOA reserves)). The text is on the legislature's site.

What does a reserve study cost in Miami?

Firms price each association by the work, not the city: buildings, component count, level of service and travel. A community of 50 to 150 units usually pays $2,000 to $8,000 for a full study with a site visit, and an update with a visit is about 50 to 80 percent of a full study. A structural integrity reserve study is a separate fee of $5,000 to $16,500 or more per building. The cost page has the estimator.
