HOA Reserve Funds Explained: Insights from Expert Michael Crew

On this segment of Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio, we're joined by expert advisor Michael Crew, CEO of Homeowner Management Services, Inc., to shed light on a topic that impacts every homeowner in a community association—HOA reserves. Whether you live in a condo, townhome, or single-family community with an HOA, understanding how reserve funds work is crucial for protecting your investment and planning for the future. Cleve Gaddis asks Michael a series of practical questions inspired by real-life curiosity from Anne Daniels' sister, who wanted to better understand how HOA reserves are managed. Together, they dive into questions like: How are HOA reserve funds determined, and what exactly is a reserve study? Why are reserve studies important—and what happens if one hasn't been completed? What are the key components included in a thorough reserve study? How is the amount of funding calculated, and what are reserve funds typically used for? Is it possible for an HOA to have too much in reserves—or worse, not enough? From neighborhood roads and pools to roofs and fencing, reserve funds ensure that your community is financially prepared to maintain and replace critical assets. But when reserve planning is ignored, the result can be expensive special assessments or deferred maintenance that tanks property values. If you've ever questioned the health of your HOA's finances, or you're a buyer evaluating a new neighborhood, this conversation is a must-listen. Understanding HOA reserves helps you ask the right questions and make smart, informed decisions. To keep the conversation going, visit GoGaddisRadio.com.

On this follow-up segment of Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio, Cleve Gaddis continues his enlightening conversation with Expert Advisor Michael Crew, CEO of Homeowner Management Services, Inc., diving even deeper into the world of HOA reserves and how they impact today's homebuyers and sellers. With HOA-related costs becoming more of a concern for buyers, many are asking: “How do I know I won't get hit with a surprise special assessment after I move in?” In this episode, Cleve and Michael explore how a properly managed reserve fund—and a recent industry shift—can offer a true safety net for buyers. They discuss: Why today's buyers are demanding transparency about HOA reserves before making an offer. The growing popularity of reserve studies and how they're becoming a key factor in real estate negotiations. What questions smart buyers should ask about an HOA's financial health—and how sellers can proactively prepare. The reality behind “surprise” costs in communities and how to avoid them altogether. Cleve also briefly touches on the 2025 Georgia State Legislative session—where, surprisingly, no major laws or changes affecting HOAs were passed. But don't get too comfortable; there's always the possibility of new proposals next year.
