What Else to Check

  • Association The assessment covers the gate, clubhouse, courts and grounds; we confirm the current budget and any special assessment from the disclosure summary.
  • City or county This community is inside the City of Boca Raton, so city taxes, permits and services apply; we confirm the jurisdiction on the Property Appraiser record for a specific home.
  • Taxes and insurance After a sale the assessed value resets the following January. Flood zone and roof age drive insurance quotes, so we check both for the address.
  • Estoppel The closing agent orders an estoppel certificate from each association, which confirms what is owed at closing.

Documents to Review Before Closing

  • Before you sign: the association disclosure summary and the parcel’s tax bill, including any non-ad valorem lines
  • Before you sign: leasing and approval rules if you may rent, and architectural rules for exterior changes
  • Before closing: estoppel certificates from every association that applies
