Yes. Florida law requires community association management firms to hold a Community Association Business (CAB) license issued by the DBPR. All 1,895 companies listed here hold an active CAB license.

1,895 companies currently hold an active DBPR CAB license in Florida, spread across 50 counties. The largest markets are Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, and Hillsborough counties, which together account for the majority of licensed firms. Data is verified against the DBPR CAB registry and updated regularly.

A Florida Community Association Business (CAB) license authorizes a firm to manage homeowners associations, condominium associations, and cooperative associations on behalf of their boards of directors. Covered services include budget preparation, assessment collection, vendor management, covenant enforcement, and board meeting support. The license is issued and enforced by the DBPR Division of Professions.

Start by verifying the firm holds an active DBPR CAB license (all firms on this site do). Then compare Google ratings and review counts, check how many local associations the firm manages in your county, and ask for references from current clients. Florida law requires the firm's license to be active before signing a management contract — you can verify any license number directly on the DBPR website.

A residential property management company works for individual landlords — finding tenants, collecting rent, and coordinating repairs on rental units. An HOA management company (community association manager) works for an association's board of directors: preparing budgets, collecting assessments, managing vendors, enforcing covenants, and keeping the association compliant with Florida statutes. In Florida this is a licensed activity — community association management firms need an active DBPR CAB license, which every firm in this directory holds. Some firms offer both services, but if you're hiring for an HOA or condo association, make sure the firm's CAB license is active.
