This guide examines Maintenance reserve specifically through the lens of “Source Freshness Review”, using the official rule and evidence that belong to this topic rather than expanding into adjacent subjects.
Official facts that control the topic
The first substantive rule for “Source Freshness Review — Maintenance reserve” is this: A maintenance reserve finances future common expenses or major works and should be distinguished from ordinary monthly aidat and from personal liabilities unrelated to the unit.
Applied specifically through the “Source Freshness Review” lens to Maintenance reserve, the official position is more precise: The Condominium Ownership Law ties owners’ contributions to common expenses, management rules and resolutions, so the source, purpose and collection basis of a reserve should be traceable to a resolution or operating project. A large cash balance does not automatically mean that all planned repairs are funded; committed contracts, earmarked works and any new funding resolution have to be identified.
What this review changes
Source freshness for Maintenance reserve is not satisfied merely because a website is official; the particular information must still apply to the period and facts on which the decision will rely. An old rule may be historically accurate yet unusable today.
Check the publication or verification date, then refresh these items for the current property and period: resolution establishing/increasing the reserve, allocation formula, bank statement, available balance, committed contracts, planned works and any additional-funding resolution. If a figure, tariff or deadline changes by year, use the correct year’s version.
If the legal text has not changed but the property data or document has, the freshness problem lies in the case evidence rather than the law.
Documents and data that must reconcile
For “Source Freshness Review”, the key evidence is: resolution establishing/increasing the reserve, allocation formula, bank statement, available balance, committed contracts, planned works and any additional-funding resolution
Scope boundary
Because this record is limited to “Source Freshness Review”, its boundary matters: A reserve balance is not a technical assessment of building condition; structural or fire-safety needs require separate technical evidence.
