ABODE International Realty publishes due-diligence guides on the rules and records that decide what a buyer can do with a property, starting with Florida condominium milestone inspections and reserve studies and the state, federal and local lines on Florida oceanfront. Each guide cites its statutes and agency sources and shows the date they were checked.
In short: ABODE’s due-diligence guides explain the rules and records that decide what a buyer can do with a property, each citing its statutes and agency sources with a check date.

How the guides are written
What can you rely on in these guides?
- Named sources. Facts that a buyer would rely on carry a numbered note that points to the statute, rule or agency page.
- Dated. Each guide shows when its sources were checked. Laws and agency lines change, so confirm the current text.
- Questions where the law is unsettled. Where a rule is new or fact-specific, the guide frames it as a question to put to the association, the seller or the agency.
- Not advice. A guide is a reference, not a substitute for a licensed professional reviewing the property.

Questions
Due-diligence guides: frequently asked questions
What is a due-diligence guide?
A due-diligence guide explains the rules, records and checks that decide what a buyer can actually do with a property, such as a condominium’s inspection and reserve records or the state, federal and local lines that cross an oceanfront lot. Each guide cites the statute or agency source for its facts and shows the date it was checked.
How are these different from the community guides?
Community guides describe a place: who governs it and what to check there. Due-diligence guides describe a topic that applies across places, such as milestone inspections for Florida condominiums or the coastal construction control line on Florida oceanfront.
Are the guides legal, engineering or insurance advice?
No. They are general information built from public statutes and agency pages. A lawyer, engineer, surveyor or insurance agent should review the specific property, and the guides say which source to confirm with.
Who reviews the guides?
ABODE prepares them, using AI-assisted drafting, from named public sources, and checks the statutes and agency pages on the date shown. No guide currently carries a named outside reviewer, and none claims one. The editorial standards page explains how the guides are built and how to send a correction.
