The quiet standard of
Naples association management.

For three decades, the board members of Southwest Florida's most discerning condominium, homeowner, and commercial associations have entrusted Paramont with the running of their communities — financials, statutes, vendors, meetings, and the thousand small things in between. We manage your association as if we lived there. Quietly. Properly. With follow-through.

The Paramont Approach

Three principles. Held without exception.

Community association work has no shortcuts. The work is documents, statutes, vendors, and people — done in the right order, on the right day, by someone who will pick up the phone. Everything we do flows from three principles we've held since 1996.

I · Stewardship

We protect what isn't ours.

Reserves are not a line item. The clubhouse roof is not "deferred." When boards entrust us with the long-horizon assets of a community, we treat them with the seriousness an owner would — because the owner is, eventually, every resident who ever lives there.

"We manage your association as if we lived there."
II · Compliance

The statutes are the floor.

Florida Chapters 718 and 720, SIRS, milestone inspections, the new reserve requirements after Champlain Towers — we don't merely meet them. We know them well enough to advise boards on the dozen ways a single bylaw amendment can quietly create exposure. Compliance is the start of our work, not the end.

"Sleep tonight knowing the statute pages are turned."
III · Service

Follow-through is the product.

What every board wants is not technology, not the slickest portal, not a five-color report. It is the certainty that the email they sent on Tuesday morning will have a real answer by Tuesday afternoon — and that the contractor will actually show on Wednesday. That certainty is what we build, every day, deliberately.

"Timely follow-up to questions and concerns."
Services

Comprehensive management, elegantly delivered.

Whether your association is a six-unit beachfront condominium, a 400-home golf community, or a commercial owners' group with three retail centers — the same standard of care applies. Three core practices, each with the depth of a firm that has done this since the mid-1990s.

FL Statute Ch. 718

Condominium Associations

Residential condominium boards from small 15-unit beachfronts to multi-tower master associations. Florida Chapter 718 fluency, SIRS administration, milestone-inspection coordination, and the year-round meeting cadence that keeps a high-rise board sane.

  • Budget preparation, adoption & year-round financial oversight
  • Annual, board, budget & special meetings — scheduled, noticed, attended, minuted
  • Reserve studies, SIRS, milestone inspection coordination
  • Vendor management for roofing, elevators, painting, paving, pool

FL Statute Ch. 720

Homeowner Associations

Single-family communities under Florida Chapter 720, from gated luxury enclaves to multi-phase master-planned neighborhoods. Architectural review, deed-restriction enforcement done with diplomacy, and the patient cadence that keeps a neighborhood feeling like one.

  • Deed restriction & covenant enforcement — courteously, consistently
  • Annual budget & assessment workflow, statutory notices
  • Vendor screening & oversight: landscape, irrigation, security, common amenities
Explore HOA Management →
Commercial Owners

Commercial Associations

Owners' groups for retail plazas, office condominiums, mixed-use centers, and master-planned commercial parks. Payroll administration, contractor management at the scale commercial properties demand, and the financial rigor that lets a board of business owners simply run their businesses.

  • Payroll administration & on-site staff coordination
  • Contractor management for major capital projects & routine upkeep
  • Bid solicitation, negotiation, contract oversight
  • Insurance coordination, year-round financial reporting to owners

The Anatomy of a Florida Building

From the seawall to the rooftop pavers.

A coastal Florida high-rise is an organism. Roofs age in salt air. Reserves are a statute. Elevators have inspections. Seawalls erode. Concrete, in our climate, has opinions. Move through the building — every numbered point is something we administer, watch, and fund, year over year.

A Year in Your Association

Every month, quietly handled.

The work of a Florida association is rhythmic — budgets in autumn, hurricane prep in summer, reserve studies on their statutory clock. Move through the calendar to see what your CAM is doing, even on the months you don't hear from us. (Especially then.)

A YEAR IN YOUR ASSOCIATION June VI HURRICANE SEASON BEGINS
Florida Statutory Compliance

The statutes that govern your community.

Florida's community association laws have grown more demanding since 2022 — SB-4D after Champlain Towers, new SIRS and milestone-inspection requirements, evolving insurance mandates. Below: a working summary of the obligations we administer, day in and day out. Tap any line for the practical detail.

FL Stat. Ch. 718

Condominium Act

Residential & commercial condominium associations
Buildings 3+ stories must complete a Structural Integrity Reserve Study every 10 years. Roof, structure, fireproofing, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, windows, and any item over $10,000 must be funded by reserves. We coordinate the engineer, administer the cycle, and walk boards through funding scenarios.
Buildings 3+ stories require a Phase 1 milestone inspection at 30 years (25 within 3 miles of coast). Phase 2 follows if substantial structural deterioration is found. We track the deadline, source the licensed engineer, and shepherd the reporting requirements.
Tier of report (cash, compiled, reviewed, or audited) depends on annual revenue. We prepare clean records to the engagement standard, schedule the CPA, and ensure timely delivery to unit owners.
14-day budget meeting notice, 48-hour board meeting posting, annual meeting notice rules, candidate certification windows. We draft, post, mail, and document every step on the statutory clock.
Owners have 10-business-day records access rights. Penalties for non-production are statutory. We maintain organized, ready-to-produce records and respond to inspection requests inside the statutory window.
FL Stat. Ch. 720

Homeowner Association Act

Single-family & planned-community associations
Consistent, documented enforcement is what keeps a deed restriction defensible. We track violations, send statutory notices, escalate through the fining committee process, and coordinate legal action when needed — always documented to the standard a court would expect.
Submissions reviewed against the governing documents, response within the statutorily presumed-approval window, decisions communicated in writing, file maintained for the duration of ownership. Quietly, on time, every time.
Annual budget adoption, special assessment notice rules, the new transparency requirements for member access to financial records. We prepare the budget, present scenarios, send statutory notices, and post the adopted document where the membership can find it.
Notice mailed, candidate nominations gathered, ballots prepared, election conducted under the governing documents and §720.306. Minutes drafted to standard, signed, and filed.
In the current Florida insurance environment, annual coverage is no longer routine. We solicit, compare, and present coverage options — and maintain vendor relationships that prioritize our communities when supply is tight.
Reserve Health Indicator

Where does your association stand?

A preliminary brass-needle reading of where a coastal Florida community is likely to sit on the reserve-funding spectrum. Adjust the three inputs to see a rough position — and remember, only a real Structural Integrity Reserve Study by a licensed engineer can give you the actual number.

Direct Lines · For Boards & Owners

Three brass plates by the door.

From the desk of the Principals

To the boards, owners, and community leaders of Southwest Florida —

We started Paramont in 1996 with a quiet conviction: that the work of a community association deserves the same seriousness a private trust receives. The reserve is not a line item. The statute is not a checkbox. The phone call is not a ticket. They are, each of them, someone's home, someone's investment, someone's peace of mind.

Three decades later, the principle still governs us. We answer the email. We attend the meeting. We meet the engineer on the roof. We know the painter by name, and he knows us. And when the storm comes — because in Florida, the storm comes — we are already on the phone.

If your community is considering a change, we welcome the conversation. No pitch. Just a candid hour with people who have done this, faithfully, for longer than most firms have existed.

Onboarding

The transition, handled.

Most boards we speak with already have a manager. Switching firms feels heavy — until you've done it once with us. Here is what the first ninety days with Paramont look like.

i

Conversation

A quiet first call with the board president. We listen first — to the community's history, the current pain points, and what "success" actually means to your owners.

ii

Records Transfer

We coordinate directly with the outgoing manager. Owner ledgers, governing documents, vendor contracts, insurance binders, and reserve schedules — all retrieved and audited.

iii

Statutory Audit

A first-90-day compliance review. SIRS status, milestone-inspection clock, financial reporting tier, notice cadence, ARC backlog. Nothing left to discover later.

iv

Steady Cadence

The work settles into the rhythm of your community — monthly statements, statutory notices on the clock, vendor cycles in motion. From here, you simply have a manager.

Begin the Conversation

A first call costs nothing.

Whether your board is comparing options, your community is six months out from a milestone deadline, or you simply want a second opinion on a budget — we welcome the call. No pitch, no pressure. A quiet conversation about your association.

Plate I · Direct Line

Request a Bid

Tell us what the project is. We'll come back inside two business days with a short list of vetted vendors, a comparison sheet, and the recommendation we'd make if it were our own building.

Plate II · 24-Hour Line

Report an Emergency

If life or property is in immediate danger, dial 911 first. Then submit below — your community's CAM is paged within minutes, 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays.
Plate III · Confidential

Report a Violation

Submit a deed-restriction or covenant matter. We document every submission, investigate to the standard of the governing documents, and follow the fining-committee process where indicated. Owner identity is held in confidence.

Florida Chapter 718

Condominium Association Management

Florida's condominium statute is the most demanding in the nation, and it has grown more so since 2022. Our condominium practice runs the full lifecycle of the association — financials, governance, vendors, statutory cycles, and the routine attention to detail that keeps a Florida high-rise out of trouble.

Governance & meetings

Financial administration

Compliance & structural integrity

Operations & vendor management

Florida Chapter 720

Homeowner Association Management

Single-family communities under Chapter 720 — from intimate gated enclaves to multi-phase master-planned neighborhoods. The work is governance, architectural review, deed-restriction enforcement, and the patient, consistent attention that keeps a neighborhood feeling like one. We aim to make the board's job almost invisible — and the owners' experience almost frictionless.

Governance & member relations

Architectural review & restrictions

Financial & assessment administration

Operations

Commercial Practice

Commercial Association Management

Owners' groups for retail plazas, office condominiums, mixed-use centers, and master-planned commercial parks. The board members are themselves business owners — the last thing they need is to be running another business. Our commercial practice is built to let them focus on the businesses they actually wanted to start.

Operations

Governance

Principal · Co-Founder

Janet Howard

Janet is the principal voice on Paramont's longest-tenured client relationships. She co-founded the firm with three decades of accumulated practice in Florida community association management, finance, and business — and she is still, on most days, in the meetings the firm attends.

Practice areas

What boards say

"Janet is the reason our community has been on the right side of every statutory change since 2018. She sees the next deadline before anyone else does."

Principal · Co-Founder

Mark Stout

Mark co-founded Paramont with Janet Howard. His practice spans the breadth of the firm's work — condominium, homeowner, and commercial association management — with particular depth in commercial owners' groups and the operational side of community management.

Practice areas

Approach

Mark's reputation in the local trade community — the engineers, roofers, painters, and landscapers — is part of the firm's quiet leverage. A Paramont-managed building, he likes to say, gets the call back.

Guillermo Ruiz

Guillermo is a Licensed Florida Community Association Manager known for being detail-oriented, ethical, and the kind of presence that makes a board's hard problems feel solvable. Owners regularly mention him by name when speaking of why they stay with Paramont.
