FHA Certification Requirements : F. Budget

The existing budget of a condominium community must be determined to be adequate before FHA certification is approved. The budget must be determined to accomplish the following:

Include allocations/line items to ensure sufficient funds are available to maintain and preserve all amenities and features unique to the condominium project;
Provide for the funding of replacement reserves for capital expenditures and deferred maintenance in an account representing at least 10% of the budget; in 2019 FHA has doubled its Reserve funding requirement up to 20%, this only applies to associations with owner-occupancy between 35% and 50%. The "10% of budget to Reserves" rule still applies to associations with an owner occupancy ratio over 50%.
Provide adequate funding for insurance coverage and deductibles.

In cases where the budget documents do not meet these standards, a reserve study (no older than 24 months) may be requested to assess the financial stability of the project. (A conservative Reserve study costs $7000.)
