You volunteered. You did not sign up to be sued.

WHAT THE STATUTE ASKS OF YOU

The board member’s job, as written by the legislature.

You agreed to serve a building you live in. The state of Florida has, in plain language, asked you to do four things in return.

These are not opinions. They are the floor. Everything else the board decides — paint colors, pool hours, vendor contracts — sits on top of those duties.

WHEN SOMETHING GOES WRONG

What you need to be able to prove.

When something goes wrong — a missed deadline, a contested vote, an owner who decides to sue — the question is rarely “did you mean well.” The question is “can you show the record.”

HOA Rocket records the first three automatically. The fourth lives with your accountant; we link to and store the documents your accountant produces.

THE BOARD VIEW

You are not switching software. Your CAM is.

You are getting a quieter dashboard.

One screen with what is due, what is done, and what is overdue.

Not a calendar. A list, with the statute next to each item. If you read one screen per week, this is the screen.

Email reminders that name the consequence.

"Annual budget meeting notice due Sep 30. Required by § 718.112(2)(e). If missed: meeting may be challenged." Not "Reminder! Action needed!"

Your CAM does the heavy lifting in the same system.

You see what they did. They see what you signed. The thing both of you needed to find at 9pm on a Tuesday is in one place.

A quarterly summary you can read on paper.

Printed, three pages, in serif type. We assume you read paper. We do not require you to learn the platform to know whether the platform is doing its job.

A records-request inbox the board can actually answer.

Owner submits, the clock starts, the CAM responds, the board sees it close. You stop being copied on email threads with subject lines like "FW: FW: RE: docs."

We are deliberately not promising the platform makes you a better board. The platform documents what your board already does. That documentation is what the statute now asks for.

What this means for your CAM. This is the same system your CAM uses. You are not asking them to learn a new tool; in most cases they are the ones who recommended it. The board side is the simpler view of what the CAM operates daily. If your CAM has not heard of HOA Rocket, ask them to book a 20-minute walkthrough with us. We will not sell to the board over the CAM’s head.

WHERE YOUR DATA LIVES

The data is yours.

The association owns its records; HOA Rocket holds them under a service agreement and operates them on your behalf.

Hosted in the United States on Hetzner US infrastructure, encrypted at rest. The board has full access to the audit log — every action, every export, every login. Owners see only what statute requires them to see, on request, through a documented records-request process. HOA Rocket staff cannot read your association’s documents in the normal course of business; support access is logged and limited to specific support tickets you open.
