Sugar Sands is a 55+ garden condominium community of 344 units spread over 30 acres on Singer Island in Riviera Beach, built in phases from 1971 to 1978 between A1A and the Lake Worth Lagoon. Two- and three-story buildings (lettered sections A-L) sit amid mature tropical landscaping, with an Olympic-size pool, tennis, day docks on the lagoon and a full clubhouse calendar. The Atlantic beaches of Singer Island are a short walk east, and Peanut Island and the Palm Beach Inlet are minutes by boat.

Florida condominiums of this age are subject to milestone inspection and structural reserve requirements. Our Intelligence Report covers what official city and county records show for this building, and what remains for a buyer to verify with the association.
When you buy into a condo building that's 15 or more years old — anywhere in the US — you should expect by default that an assessment, or several, is in effect or on the way: roof repairs, elevator replacement, repaving, facade work. Buildings age on a schedule, and the bill lands on the owners: often hundreds of dollars a month on top of your mortgage, HOA fee, taxes, and insurance. The unit listing rarely mentions any of it.
In Florida, the stakes for older buildings are higher still. Since the 2021 Surfside tragedy, state law requires milestone structural inspections at 30 years (25 in some coastal areas), Structural Integrity Reserve Studies, and — critically — bars associations from waiving reserve funding for structural components, ending decades of artificially low fees. Add the state's insurance surge, and many older buildings carry obligations that never appear in a listing. None of this makes an older building a bad purchase — but the difference between a well-run 1970s tower and a struggling one can be tens of thousands of dollars per unit. That's the question our building intelligence answers.
