About BoardComply
The simplest way for community boards to stay compliant.
BoardComply is board-member certification and compliance for community associations, both HOAs and condominiums. Our aim is to be the easiest and most trusted way for a board to complete its required training, store its certificates, and know it is compliant, without anyone having to become an expert in the rules.
Why we exist
Serving on a community association board is volunteer work, and the compliance side of it is easy to lose track of. Board members have required training to complete, certificates to keep, and renewal dates that arrive quietly. Most of that lands on one person, usually the secretary, working out of a folder of emails and a stack of paper.
We built BoardComply so that person can stop chasing and just check the roster. Complete the required training, store every certificate in one place, track where the whole board stands, and get a reminder before a deadline passes. The goal is simple: a board member should be able to say, “I never worry about whether our board is compliant anymore.”
Who is behind BoardComply
BoardComply was founded by Carlos Castellano. He has owned and run his own service business for more than twenty years, most of it spent in the neighborhoods his customers live in, including plenty of communities governed by associations. He knows firsthand what it is like to carry a legal requirement on top of a day job.
When Florida made board education mandatory, hundreds of thousands of volunteers picked up that kind of requirement overnight, and the tools available to them amounted to a folder of PDFs and a reminder on someone’s phone. Carlos built BoardComply to give the job a real home: the course, the certificates, and the deadlines, all in one place, written the way he would want as a reader.
Carlos is not an attorney, so BoardComply never asks you to take his word for anything. Every rule on this site comes from the Florida Statutes with the citation attached, so you can check the source yourself, and anything unsettled is labeled as an interpretation.
How we work
Built for the record keeper
The person who keeps the board's records, usually the secretary, carries the weight of staying compliant. We build for them first: one place for the roster, the certificates, and the deadlines, so nothing lives in one person's inbox.
More than a course
Passing the required course is the start, not the point. Your certificate, your renewal date, and your whole board's standing stay tracked in one place, so nothing lapses quietly.
Honest about what is settled and what is not
Where the law is clear, we say so and cite the statute. Where it is open to interpretation, we say that too, and we label our reading as an interpretation. This is education and compliance tooling, not legal advice.
How we handle the law
Every rule we teach is checked against the statute, and we quote the source. Where a point is genuinely unsettled, we say so rather than pick a side. This is education, not legal advice, and not a substitute for your association’s attorney.
Approved by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation
Approval verifies the course complies with Chapter 718/720, Florida Statutes. It is not a Department endorsement, and we do not describe it as one.
