Am I wrong? I have conacted sseveral (actually only 2) companies that perform/do a reserve analysis for HOAs.....Their charge is o/a $1,000. All we have to do is answer (which I did) about 10 questions and that is it.. then they send an estimate for what it will cost. They do NOT come to the site.. they just plug figures into the computer and out comes the estimate.
My concern is...a) How do they know the condition of the roof?; b) If we have pool chairs, how can they tell the life longevity of those?; c) how can they determine the life duration of the grills at the pool? etc etc etc
NOW.. IF.... IF.... we want them to come out and LOOK at the chairs, the buildings, etc etc, the price goes ukp about three fold.
Is this the way an analysis is conducted? by plugging numbers into a computer?
