How VA Condo Approval Works

  • The VA keeps a searchable list of approved condo projects
  • If a project is not approved, the lender can request approval by submitting the association’s documents
  • Approval reviews the declaration, bylaws, and other association documents

Florida Condo Issues to Check

  • Milestone structural inspections and the structural integrity reserve study required for many buildings
  • Special assessments that are pending or planned
  • Reserve funding and HOA budgets
  • Flood zone and insurance coverage for the building
  • Short-term rental rules if you plan to rent the unit later

Ask for the association documents early, and we will review the financing side with you.
