Condo Association Screenings in Florida

Question:

Can a condo association require background checks?

– David

 

Answer:

Hi David,

Associations may have the right to deny buyers or renters based on the criteria outlined in the governing documents. However, the screening must be applied equally and should not be arbitrary. Moreover, the association cannot discriminate against people of certain protected groups under the Fair Housing Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and other similar state and federal laws. For further guidance, kindly consult a lawyer.
