Your Board of Directors contracted Reserve Study Group to perform a full reserve study for the Old Cahaba Residential Association during the last quarter of 2024. The full report is linked at the bottom of this post. Below is an excpert from the report stating the Goals and outcomes from a Reserve Study.
"One of the primary goals of a reserve study is to identify the condition and expected useful life of each component of common property. By understanding the condition and useful life of each component, managers and associations can plan for necessary repairs and replacements, and ensure that they have the funds necessary to address any issues that arise. This can help prevent unexpected expenses and funding deficiencies, which can be a burden on homeowners and create financial instability for the community. In addition, a reserve study can help managers and homeowners associations identify any funding deficiencies that may exist. If the study reveals that there are not enough funds in the reserve account to cover necessary repairs and replacements, association managers and associations can take action to address the shortfall, such as increasing assessments or reducing expenses. By identifying and addressing funding deficiencies, managers and associations can ensure that they are properly funded and prepared for the future. Another goal of a reserve study is to promote transparency and build trust with homeowners. By providing a detailed breakdown of the reserve fund and projected costs, association managers and associations can demonstrate to homeowners that they are being responsible and proactive in managing community finances. This can help build trust and foster a sense of community among homeowners. Ultimately, the desired outcome of a reserve study is to ensure the proper maintenance and repair of common property and the continued success of the community. By taking a proactive approach to long-term planning and budgeting, property managers and homeowners associations can ensure that they have the funds necessary to maintain their common property over the long term, and avoid unexpected expenses and funding deficiencies."
