Senate Bill 496, a measure addressing timeshare management and community association manager conflicts of interest, was laid on table on April 28, 2025. Its companion House bill (CS/HB 897, Chapter 2025-142) passed and became law.
What changed: The enacted legislation revised conflict-of-interest provisions that apply to community association managers and management firms. Specifically, it removed a requirement that managing entities performing community association management must comply with certain provisions that govern community association management firms. The law also established that the board of administration of a timeshare condominium must meet at least once per year.
Who is affected: Timeshare condominium associations and community association management firms, particularly those managing timeshare properties.
Effective date: The effective date is governed by Chapter 2025-142 (the enacted House companion bill). Consult that chapter for the specific implementation date.
