Questions about El Lago

Has El Lago filed its structural integrity reserve study (SIRS)?

Yes. As of October 12, 2026, we found a SIRS filing matching El Lago in the Florida DBPR's public SIRS reporting database. Matches are made by name and county, so confirm the details with the association or in the official database.

What flood zone is El Lago in?

FEMA's flood map places El Lago in zone AH, a high-risk Special Flood Hazard Area, where lenders typically require flood insurance. The zone is matched to the building's mapped location; an elevation certificate or FEMA's Flood Map Service Center can confirm it for a specific unit.

How many units does El Lago have?

The Florida condominium registry lists 144 declared units for El Lago, first recorded on 09/02/1981.

Does El Lago need a milestone inspection?

Florida requires a milestone inspection of condominium buildings three habitable stories or more by December 31 of the year a building turns 30 (25 where the local building department requires it), then every 10 years. The condominium declaration for El Lago was first recorded in 1981, so if its buildings are three or more stories they reached the 30-year mark around 2011. The building itself can be older, for example after an apartment conversion. The association must give owners the inspector's summary, and a seller must give it to a buyer.

Who manages El Lago?

The Florida DBPR registry lists El Lago N.W. 7th Condo Assoc., Inc. as the managing entity. Florida generally requires associations managing 25 or more units to post key documents, including budgets, financial reports, minutes and inspection reports, on a website or app.
