Professional Reserve Study Services for Community Associations
Our Reserve Study services help community associations, HOAs, condominiums, and property managers plan confidently for future repair and replacement expenses through accurate, detailed financial and physical analysis.
We begin with a customized proposal tailored to your community’s specific needs. Once approved, a local Reserve Consultant performs an on-site property inspection to evaluate common area components and meet with your board or management team in person.
After receiving your completed questionnaire and project information, we deliver your initial Reserve Study report within 30 days. You’ll also receive access to our Funding Plan Scenario Calculator, along with a demo video designed to help you evaluate reserve funding options and future capital planning scenarios.
To ensure the final report meets your expectations, we include one complimentary revision prior to final delivery. If requested, our team can also attend one board meeting by teleconference to review the findings, explain recommendations, and answer questions.
All Reserve Studies are prepared in accordance with CAI National Reserve Study Standards and applicable state requirements. Every site inspection is completed by a local Reserve Consultant and reviewed by a CAI Reserve Specialist to ensure consistency, accuracy, and professional quality.
Once your questionnaire is complete, we promptly schedule your site visit and guide your association through a smooth and efficient Reserve Study process from start to finish.

How a Reserve Study Helps Reduce Special Assessments
A Reserve Study helps your association plan ahead financially, while a special assessment is often the result of not planning far enough in advance.
A professional Reserve Study evaluates the condition of your property’s common area components and estimates future repair and replacement costs. This allows your HOA, condominium association, or community association to gradually set aside reserve funds over time instead of facing large unexpected expenses.
By following a structured reserve funding plan, associations can keep budgets more predictable, maintain property values, and reduce financial surprises for homeowners.
A special assessment, on the other hand, is typically a one-time charge imposed when reserve funds are insufficient to cover a major repair, replacement project, or unexpected expense.
In short, a well-prepared Reserve Study helps minimize the likelihood of special assessments by providing a long-term financial roadmap that supports stable budgeting and proactive planning.
If your HOA has limited funds, we offer a Solution.
The Ongoing Partnership Solution is an ideal option for HOAs with limited funds seeking a cost-effective, long-term approach to reserve planning. This program includes one comprehensive Full Reserve Study, with a site visit conducted promptly after Global Solution Partners receives the completed client questionnaire. Over the five-year term, the service also provides three additional updates, allowing the Client to choose the timing based on their financial and planning needs. This includes one Reserve Study Update with a site visit (Level 2) and two Reserve Study Updates without site visits (Level 3), helping to maintain an accurate and up-to-date reserve plan while managing costs efficiently.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Reserve Study?
A Reserve Study is a financial planning tool used primarily by homeowner associations (HOAs), condominium associations, and other property-owning organizations to ensure they have adequate funds set aside for future major repairs and replacements of common elements. A Reserve Study includes a component list, an assessment of the condition of the components, an estimated remaining life of each component, and an estimated replacement cost of each component.
Why would I need a Reserve Study?
A Reserve Study is an essential tool for any community association, aiming to ensure financial stability and proper maintenance of common areas and infrastructure. This comprehensive assessment serves multiple critical purposes: it provides a detailed inventory of the physical components the association is responsible for, evaluates the current condition of these elements, estimates the remaining useful life of each component, and outlines the costs associated with their repair or replacement. By identifying and planning for these future expenditures, a reserve study helps prevent the financial shock of sudden, large-scale repairs, ensuring that the community can maintain and enhance property values without imposing unexpected assessments on its members. Moreover, a well-conducted reserve study is a roadmap for long-term financial planning, enabling communities to establish a reasonable and equitable funding plan. This proactive approach not only safeguards the aesthetic and functional integrity of the community but also promotes a sense of trust and security among residents, knowing their investment is well-managed and future-proofed.
