Who it covers
HOA condos with 3+ unitsCondominium associations & common-interest developments governed under Davis-Stirling. Not single-family or detached planned developments.
One-off balcony & deck inspections for HOA condominiums — built for the agent who needs a clear answer on SB 326 before the close, not after.
When an HOA's SB 326 status is unclear, it doesn't stay quiet in the disclosure packet. It surfaces at the worst possible moment — and lands on your desk.
Lenders and condo questionnaires increasingly ask about exterior-elevated-element compliance. An unanswered inspection can freeze an approval cold.
"Is the balcony safe?" is the easiest question for a deal to die on. A clean, current report turns a worry into a non-issue.
Skipped inspections get used to argue negligence. Boards, sellers, and agents all want documentation in the file before the keys change hands.
SB 326 added Civil Code §5551 to the Davis-Stirling Act after the 2015 Berkeley balcony collapse. Here's what your HOA condo is on the hook for.
