Q. What is the 'monthly reserve assessment?
A. The monthly reserve assessment refers to a portion of the condominium fee that is set aside every month for long term maintenance and replacement items such as roofs, decks, failed siding, roadways, sidewalks, parking areas, gutters, and the like. The purpose of reserving for items that will eventually need to be replaced is to ensure that all owners pay their fair share towards the future replacement of parts of the development which have a finite life, regardless of whether they still own a unit in the development at the time that a major maintenance expenditure is being completed. This method of paying for the repair or replacement of the above items also minimizes the likelihood of the association having to levy a special assessment to pay for the majority of the cost when a particular project is being performed.
