FAQ
So how much should your HOA have on hand to address these inevitable repair and replacement costs? A good rule of thumb is for Reserves to be funded at 70% or higher of the property's calculated deterioration.
Percent funded is calculated by dividing the current reserve fund balance by the fully funded balance. In the above example, if the association has $30,000 in reserves in year 10, it is 60% funded ($30,000 / $50,000).

Except as provided below, all associations are required to prepare a reserve study at least once every three (3) years with a review to be conducted annually to determine if adjustments are necessary to the association's reserve account requirements. (Civ. Code §§ 5300(b), 5550(a).)
The number is usually five. Very small associations sometimes call for three directors, and very large associations may have seven or more.
Reserves are like savings accounts – an accumulation of funds for a future purpose. The source of funding for a reserve might be surpluses from operations, or scheduled transfers that have been planned and budgeted.
While there is no ideal funding level, having adequate reserve funds to replace reserve components as they are due over time is the goal. For instance, if an association has a 75% reserve fund level, they can only replace 75% of their reserve components as they become due.
On average, The Board should be setting aside 15% to 40% of their total assessments towards reserves, although for some simpler situations, a more minimal reserve fund ratio of 10% to 15% may be sufficient. Develop a funding plan that aligns with the calculated reserve fund requirements.
