Prepare a SIRS scope discussion

Keep structural reserve planning distinct from milestone inspection and traditional reserve work.

Approved planning context

Structural Integrity Reserve Study (SIRS)

$10,000 to $12,000

USD per study engagement; building/association basis unconfirmed

Indicative Northwest Florida planning guidance; scope confirmation required. Not a measured market distribution, a quote or a locally observed county or ZIP price. Actual fees may fall outside the interval.

Scope drivers: Building size and unit count; Availability of drawings; Number of buildings; Coordination with other inspections.

Confirm inclusions and exclusions in writing. Expanded assessment-to-repair work remains unpriced.

Identify the job each document performs

DBPR describes milestone inspection as structural inspection and SIRS as a budget-planning tool for specified association-maintained components. Similar inputs or a bundled proposal do not make the deliverables interchangeable.

Questions to carry forward

Which SIRS components and buildings are covered?
Is a milestone inspection included as a separately identified task?
What reserve-planning deliverables are supplied?

Florida DBPR: Milestone and SIRS questions. Reviewed 2026-10-01. A general FAQ does not decide an individual building’s applicability, deadline or compliance.

Florida Legislature: Section 553.899. Reviewed 2026-10-01. Use the complete current law and local authority for applicability. This resource calculates no deadline.

Florida Legislature: Section 718.112. Reviewed 2026-10-01. A statute link is a starting point; this resource does not determine reserve-funding obligations.

Prepare the scope information

Gather available drawings, prior studies and current component information. Ask the provider what must be confirmed and what assumptions affect the scope. This resource does not calculate a due date or decide whether a building is subject to a statutory requirement.

Questions to carry forward

Are drawings available and adequate for the requested scope?
Which visits, access arrangements or additional services are included?
Who confirms current statutory and local requirements?

Keep bundles understandable

Request separate deliverables and fee allocation for SIRS, traditional reserves, milestone inspection and any later repair work. An unallocated bundled total should remain unallocated in comparisons.

Questions to carry forward

Can the provider identify each service’s fee and exclusions?
What assumptions are shared, and what work remains distinct?
What happens if further inspection or testing is needed?
