Oldsmar, Florida

This Board has had 5 complaints filed with the Florida Division of Mobile Homes, Land Sales and Condominiums. 9 violations have been assessed at present (6 financial and 3 due process). The fifth complaint has 38 new alleged violations and is currently under review. As predictable the violations are not required to be shared with the owners so the majority have no clue. The Board has a proven track record of retaliation to owners and residents that are on their "list". They do not follow Florida Statute regulations (thus the complaints) unless statutes bouy their intent to go after identified residents/owners. Avoid this Association like a heart attack.

Lakewood Village Recreation Association

Management Co.: Florida Sunset Association ManagementIneffective and fiscally irresponsible.
Ineffective and fiscally irresponsible. Rec board members are out of touch individuals who have no right to have any authority. They constantly waste money and communication and transparency are non existent.
Bayside Estates
Fort Myers Beach, Florida
The HOA is very contentious and cliquish and as a result there is little choice to change the board.
The HOA is very contentious and cliquish and as a result there is little choice to change the board. They are very litigation oriented, with over 92K spent last fiscal year directed usually against residents. We have had two large assessments in the last few months (one for litigation expenses). They issue tons of violation letters with little response time and $100 a day fine threats for petty lot or building situations. they constantly come up with new requirements, like window location and skirting standards. As a result, it's a bad place to retire in that costs can be unpredictably high and value growth is muted by rent limitations and over regulation.

Maxet Management — after a few years of experience with this management company, our HOA has seen very little progress. Manpower is overloaded, and management fees have increased. They do not follow bylaws or reviews. Accounting fees are charged without transparency, and their software consistently has problems. Owner surveys have confirmed a D+ rating. Don’t use them.
Legion Park Landing
Miramar Beach, Florida
Where Did Our HOA Land Go?
Where Did Our HOA Land Go? What happened to our area behind the lake? The bridge has been removed, and the two end houses have absorbed the land. When we asked the HOA board member who fenced the land off about it, she told us it was given to her by a past HOA president who is now deceased. Show us the documentation, and until you do, this is considered theft. Additionally, all board meetings are closed meetings. Finally, the board member who helped herself to the land no longer lives in the community. I call this a greedy attempt to take advantage of the homeowners for personal gain. Or show me the purchase agreement between the person you said gave you the land and you. Simple. Also, let us know how the other end of the land was absorbed by the new home being built. I don’t recall giving them the land either. Foul play is afoot at Legion Landing SD in Miramar Beach. Prove me wrong, please.
Needs FBI Fraud Investigation!
Needs FBI Fraud Investigation! Like Hammocks All Over Again! Our little dirt-road maintenance POA was taken over by Sentry in 2014, and assessments increased 1,000%. Now it’s a foreclosure mill. A receiver has been acting as the Board of Directors for NEARLY 20 YEARS! Yep, facts: NO VOTING. A Polk County judge ordered what I believe was a hostile HOA takeover. There are serious concerns involving alleged fraud, misappropriation of funds, potential RICO violations, elder exploitation, and conflicts of interest. WHERE’S ALL THE $$$ GOING??? The roads are worse than ever. AUDIT SENTRY NOW! FBI! The state does NOTHING. Zero stars.

Not good. No financial transparency. Very limited reserves and always special assessment happy.
Daytona Beach Resort and Conference Center
Daytona Beach, Florida
Great location but terrible investment.
Great location but terrible investment. Worst experience as investment with dysfunctional board, substandard management company and a lawfirm that has found its cash cow! Special assessments up to $27,000 in 3 years and monthly fee up to $1,200 with garage still shut down, a SEAWALL that took 4 years and dead landscaping to welcome guests. Oh also reeks of pot and no visible security with elevators down but great location, hence 1 star.
Do not buy from this company!
Do not buy from this company!!! Look up Grand Reserve at Kirkman Park and Discovery Palms—you’ll regret it. We are also part of Willow Bridge, and our properties have declined in value. Maintenance is a joke. Our investors apparently aren’t much better. From what I’ve heard, these guys are being sued by everybody.
Diplomat Apartment Association Inc.
Cocoa Beach, Florida
Incompetent leadership.
Incompetent leadership. This association has taken on a restoration project which has driven the property values of the condos in this complex into the ground. I myself am down a 100k from a year and a 1/2 ago due to their incompetence. They also communicate to their homeowners information that is incorrect, not true. They do not know how their payment systems work. They promise to deliver and never do. Then they call their attorneys and have them harass the homeowners, absolutely awful.
Two words to describe these crooks, corruption and malpractice.
Two words to describe these crooks, corruption and malpractice. I’m sure we’re all familiar with scammy HOAs but this one takes the cake. If you are co-signing an apartment with a roomate, expect to pay $600 in just application fees. On top of that, they wait until after the deposit is collected to voice issues and look for any excuse to jip you out of your money. Not even sure why HOAS exist still, would give 0 stars if i could.

Meadow Run HOA
Venice, Florida
They violate Florida Statues and even their own by-laws.
They violate Florida Statues and even their own by-laws. The board members have falsified documents in the election, have not produced requested documentation to prove proof of payment for an $82,000 lake renovation. They will not let homeowners speak their allocated three minutes per Florida law. The HOA and management company are uneducated individuals using their power to bully mostly the elderly homeowners
Eagle Palms
Riverview, Florida

If you want a board to govern your life, then welcome to Eagle Palms. Watch out for violations as they have been known to charge 2500-5000 for garbage cans and driveways that need powerwashing. They are selective when it comes to towing even though many violations are reported. They also DO NOT follow statute 720.It's thier boss! Stay away and live a happy life elsewhere.

Though the [fee/lien] was extinguished by MRTA and not mandatory, the HOA would not allow purchases without paying them, and continued to send out collection notices and file liens.

Communist Extortionate's!! The HOA BOD, Precedent Management, along with Adams & Reese Law firm has created an extortionate system, in which they bleed residents with fines, fees and other manufactured charges for profit. 0% finacial transparency If you ask, you'll likely be targeted in attempts to silence the truth.

The building leaks, the Board in charge has not done repairs from storm three years ago and although they have approved massive assessments, with more to come, the pools are filled with green algae and crumbling infrastructure. The owners need to elect a smarter board. Probably has low reserves, minimal effort completed with SIRS recommendations as well. Great location but historically bad management.

POA (property owners assoc) is run by a bunch of retirees wanting to control every aspect of your property to their esthetic tastes. They also blatantly disregard the needs of Disabled Veterans, opening in writing mock mental health disabilities. Zero amenities, no shared community space for our section of the POA so we pay $180 per year to be policed, mocked, and harassed because we have legitimate medical needs that they deem ridiculous, regardless of what a doctor says.

Board members who only care about themselves and their friends who own multiple condos or villas. The grounds and buildings look like slums. Not a good place to buy if you are looking to maintain your property values
Hickory Hill

Incompetent.
Incompetent. Cost our neighborhood over 250K to have repairs to drainage that had not been inspected as required. Plus, they are vindictive and take revenge on homeowners that complain about their lack of service.

The community has been in a years long fight between a rogue board and the homeowners. There is a small group of absolutely crazy people that spread rumors and do what they can to ostracize people that don’t go along with the way they want things to be. Stay far away from this community.

If you are looking at this Community don't buy unless you expect to be ignored, blocked or harassed till you move. The "click" in our Community beleives that you should let all the Karens run everything. If they dont like you or your belief or political values you will be treated poorly. Not in their group then you dont get approved on anything.The Community page on Facebook that we have is so biased on approval its not in your favor but theirs.They won't run me out like the rest of people who sold out.

The HOA allows people to live in garages that are not converted to safe living spaces and allows people to keep their garbage outside in front or back causing neighbors to get critters and bugs.

Florida HOA Questions
Q1:What is Florida's main HOA law?
Florida HOAs are governed by the Florida Homeowners' Association Act, Chapter 720 of the Florida Statutes. Condominiums are separately governed by Chapter 718.
Q2:Can a Florida HOA fine a homeowner without a hearing?
No. Florida law requires HOAs to provide written notice and an opportunity for a hearing before the HOA's fining committee (not the board) before imposing a fine exceeding $100.
Q3:Does Florida require HOAs to maintain reserve funds?
For condominiums, yes—Florida law requires reserve funding for major components. For HOAs under Chapter 720, reserves are required only if specified in the governing documents, but members can vote to waive them annually.
