Below is a list of the HOA Package Contents as Required by California Law when a condominium is to be sold to a new owner. The buyer is required by law to have access to all of these documents. In particular, your buyer may be looking at the “Assessment Reserve Funding Disclosure” (found within the pro forma operating budget) which gives an indication of how well funded (or not) the repair reserve for the association is. Likewise, a buyer’s lender may be looking for the required amount of fidelity bond coverage; if your association has more than 20 units, you’d do well to make sure your association has the appropriate coverage.
