## What do you think? Question:

![condo-reserve-budgeting.jpeg](http://www.condoassociation.com/hs-fs/hubfs/condo-reserve-budgeting.jpeg?width=200&height=200&name=condo-reserve-budgeting.jpeg "condo-reserve-budgeting.jpeg")I am looking for a metric that helps to determine what an adequate amount of reserve funds a condo association should include in its annual budget.

For example, might it be a percentage of the entire budget, or a percentage of the total value of the property? Should the age of the property/infrastructure be a factor?

Any advice would be welcomed.
