A secretive quasi-governmental condo blacklist is growing exponentially, making it difficult for owners in scores of troubled buildings in Miami and South Florida to sell or get loans for repairs even as their associations face a fiscal and time crunch to meet stringent new state safety regulations, according to a report in the Miami Herald.

The number of local condos on the list, which is maintained by federally chartered mortgage finance corporation Fannie Mae, has more than doubled in the past two years, according to new data released by a law firm that has been tracking it.
