        "text": "Private docks in South Florida require regular maintenance due to the marine environment. This typically includes routine cleaning, inspecting for rot or structural damage, checking pilings, and addressing marine growth. Depending on the material, docks may need periodic sealing, painting, or repairs to electrical and plumbing fixtures (e.g., boat lifts, water, power pedestals). This falls under preparation: understanding the ongoing commitment and costs associated with dock upkeep is essential before purchasing. Kelby Contreras can advise on common maintenance considerations for waterfront properties in the region.",
