Florida Condominium Act doesn't require board members to be residents, nor does it require them to be owners of units. The only requirement is that the individual is at least 18 years old. What's more important is whether your specific condominium's bylaws allow for it, as the condominium association can establish their own eligibility criteria.
At Daisy property management, we routinely guide our board members through issues like this and help them understand the finer details of their governance documents to ensure smooth and compliant operations.

Is it mandatory that a board member of a condo be required to live in that same condo?
Read your governing documents to determine the residency requirements for board service eligibility. It is possible that the majority of the board must be resident owners, all members must be resident owners or there may be no residency requirement. There is no standard.
Is a board member of a condo required to live in the condo?
The requirement for a condo board member to be a resident of the condo is not universally mandated. It really depends on the specific by-laws of your condominium. Some condo by-laws state that board members must be owners, but not necessarily that they must occupy one of the units. Other condos require all board members to be owner-occupants, while some have no requirement at all. Having board members who are residents can be beneficial, as they will be directly invested in the quality of life within the building and more aware of the day-to-day issues that arise. At Daisy Property Management, we believe every board member, resident or not, can make positive contributions to a community when there is clear communication and strong teamwork. It’s always good to review your condominium's specific by-laws or consult with a property management professional to understand the rules specific to your community.
For how many years can a person serve on a condo board of directors in Florida?
Regardless of the state where the property is located, the governing documents spell out the term of each board member. After a term expires, it's necessary to be re-elected, in order to continue to serve on a board.
How long is the term of a condo board member in Florida?
The term length for a condo board member in Florida, as per the Florida condo laws, is typically a one or two-year period. However, the specifics can be found in your individual condo's governing documents or bylaws. These documents could extend the term up to a maximum of three years. As with any governance related issues, my advice is always to refer to your condominium's governing documents to be sure, as they may have certain unique directives or clauses that vary from the standard. At Daisy, they often assist our board members with governance-related inquiries to ensure a smooth operation. Furthermore, we provide real-time updates and easy access to documents to our board members which in turn helps them make informed decisions and complies with their roles effortlessly.
