Scheduled Property Inspections
Routine inspections on a documented cadence, monthly drive-throughs in most communities, with photographic documentation.
Covenant Enforcement & Compliance
Covenant enforcement run by a dedicated department, not your manager wearing another hat.
Fair, consistent, address-not-name enforcement that protects property values without eroding homeowner relationships. Edison runs covenant work as a separate workstream with documented protocols, monthly board reporting, and a correction-first protocol.
Applies to: HOA + Condo Associations
Dedicated
Dedicated covenant department, not the manager's overtime work.
Impartial
Inspectors see addresses, not names. Bias-resistant by design.
Visible
Monthly reports in your board portal, not buried in meeting minutes.

Full-cycle covenant work with the documentation boards actually need
Edison's enforcement department handles the workflow end-to-end, inspections, notice generation, hearing support, and reporting back to the board.
Address-Not-Name Inspections
Inspectors record addresses, not homeowner names. Protocols designed to remove bias and protect the board from selective-enforcement claims.

ARC Coordination
Architectural Review Committee submissions reviewed, sequenced, and decisioned within board-set timelines.

Legal Coordination
When enforcement requires legal escalation, Edison coordinates with the association's attorney, full case file in hand.
Why Edison
Why Edison's enforcement model is different
Correction-First Protocol
Most violations get resolved with a courtesy reminder. Fines are a last resort, not the opening move. Boards keep homeowner relationships.
Address-Not-Name Inspections
Inspectors document addresses. Bias and 'selective enforcement' claims have a structural defense built into the workflow.
Documented Workflow
Every notice, every hearing, every decision, tracked through the Action Item List with timestamps and attachments.
Separate from Management
Your manager isn't the enforcer. That preserves the working relationship boards rely on for everything else.
Monthly Board Reporting
Enforcement summary delivered monthly with trends, outliers, and recommendations. No surprises at the annual meeting.
Florida Compliance Built In
Notice timing, hearing rights, and statutory due-process steps are baked into the workflow, not added after a complaint.

The process
How an enforcement cycle actually runs
Defined steps, documented at every stage.
01
Inspection
Routine drive-through or report-based inspection. Address recorded, photographed, logged.
02
Courtesy Notice
First touch is a courtesy reminder, friendly, specific, with a clear cure window. Notices are mailed and emailed, and owners can respond right in the Resident Portal. Most violations resolve here.
03
Formal Notice
If unresolved, a formal notice follows per FL statute. Edison handles the documentation, timeline, and board communication.
04
Resolution or Escalation
Most cases close at the hearing stage. Cases that don't are escalated to the association's attorney with the full file.
We took over a community where enforcement had become punitive. Edison's department reset the program around correction-first protocols. Hearings down 62% in year one. Zero lawsuits.

FAQ
Questions boards ask most
Does this apply to condos as well as HOAs?
Yes. Edison's enforcement department handles both, covenant enforcement under HOA governing documents (Ch. 720) and rule enforcement under condominium declarations (Ch. 718). The procedural specifics differ; the workflow discipline is the same.
How are inspections scheduled?
Most communities get monthly drive-throughs as a baseline, plus complaint-driven inspections when residents flag specific issues. The cadence is adjusted to the community's size and the board's enforcement appetite, boards have full control over the volume.
What if a homeowner contests a violation?
Edison handles the hearing process per FL statute, notice timing, hearing scheduling, hearing minutes, and the board's decision documentation. The board is the decision-maker; Edison handles the procedure.
How do you avoid selective-enforcement claims?
Address-not-name inspections, documented criteria for what triggers a notice, and a documented workflow that treats every violation the same way regardless of who owns the unit. Boards using Edison have a clean procedural defense built in.
Can the board override Edison's recommendations?
Always. Edison's enforcement work runs the procedure and recommends action; the board makes every substantive decision. We document the recommendation and the board's decision separately so the record is clear.
