Florida Statute 558 was intended to reduce construction defect litigation by encouraging early resolution before lawsuits are filed. In practice, it has become a major driver of risk, insurance cost, and deal structure across Florida condo development. This panel will explore who is ultimately bearing that risk and how that is influencing project feasibility and returns. The conversation will focus on what every CRE stakeholder needs to understand as liability, cost, and exposure continue to evolve in Florida’s development market.
