How to Use the Tools

Start broad, then investigate the actual records.

01

Enter the information

Use details from the listing, seller package or condominium documents when available.

02

Review the result

Use the result to identify possible questions, missing information and areas requiring attention.

03

Confirm with the documents

Compare the preliminary result with the complete financial, reserve, governance and insurance records.

Important Limitations

A calculator cannot see the entire condo.

A reserve balance or monthly fee does not provide enough information on its own. The strongest review connects multiple documents and considers the corporation's specific circumstances.

These tools cannot:

The results are general educational estimates and should not be treated as guarantees or professional advice.

! Predict whether a future special assessment will occur
! Determine reserve-fund adequacy without the repair schedule and study assumptions
! Replace legal, engineering, accounting, insurance or investment advice
! Identify concerns contained in documents that were not provided
