Question: What is a "reserves account" in multifamily investing and why is it necessary? | Answer: In multifamily investing, a reserves account is a dedicated pool of cash set aside to cover future or unexpected expenses related to the property, such as major repairs, capital improvements, or temporary shortfalls in operating income. It is necessary because it helps protect the investment from financial stress by ensuring funds are available for items like roof replacements, HVAC systems, or vacancies without needing emergency capital calls or additional debt. Maintaining reserves also provides lenders and investors with confidence that the property can weather unforeseen issues, support stable cash flow, and preserve the long-term value of the asset. |
