8ish years ago, our condo board in Florida hid failed inspection reports from threshold inspectors for close to 10 years, until a 2 million dollar job became 8+. As I said in prior posts, the only reason they finally did the repairs was under threat of town pulling COs, when an owner finally reported chunks of their balcony falling. Even after that, they were shopping for an inspector that would minimize the expense, and organized a recall election to remove a president that wanted to proceed sooner.
