A
comprehensive reserve study can be a critical tool for any administrative
property board. This study includes an in-depth physical and financial analysis
of a property or group of properties. This analysis allows for the
determination of what a fair reserve contribution is. Reserve studies can also
offset the steadily ongoing deterioration of association assets by focusing
attention on those assets before they require major repairs.
