A special assessment is normal when a building has real capital needs. What matters is whether it's planned and funded. Ask the board (or, before you buy, the seller and the estoppel certificate):
Special-assessment dollar amounts are member-gated by statute and are NOT shown for any association; the figures here are public-record capital proxies only. Capital figures are compiled from county building permits (estimated construction value >= $50k, last 60 months), fl dbpr sirs reporting (sb 4-d), miami-dade + broward building-safety recertification programs, and fl oir residential property insurance market data (county). This is reference information, not financial, legal, or insurance advice.
