Reserve Fund Study Edmonton by Licensed Professional Engineers 

A reserve fund study (often called a reserve study) is a long-range planning report that helps a condo corporation forecast major repair and replacement costs and plan funding over time. It typically includes a component inventory, an on-site review of the property, and a capital plan + funding model so boards can budget and reduce the risk of large, unexpected expenses. Check out our reserve fund study guide for more information.

Reserve fund study costs in Alberta typically range from $3,000 to $12,000, depending on several key factors. Small townhome complexes under 50 units generally cost $3,000-$5,000, mid-sized properties with 50-150 units range from $5,000-$8,000, while larger high-rise buildings or complexes with extensive amenities may cost $8,000-$12,000 or more. Check out our Cost Guide.

The legislative frequency is every 5 years. However, frequency also depends on your condo corporation’s requirements and planning needs, but many boards update reserve fund studies on a recurring cycle to keep the capital plan and funding model current. If you’re approaching a budgeting cycle, major project, financing requirement, or your last study is aging out, it’s a good time to update. If you tell us your building type and last study date, we can recommend the right approach.

Our process is designed to be straightforward for busy boards and property managers:

1. Request a quote – tell us about your building and timeline; we provide a clear proposal and next steps.

2. Complete everything online – upload documents and complete board questions through our self-serve portal.

3. Site visit + report delivery – we perform the on-site review and deliver a practical, budget-ready reserve fund study report through the portal.

To keep your reserve fund study accurate and efficient, it helps to gather what you already have, such as:

• Prior reserve fund study reports (if available)

• Recent financial statements and budgets

• Building drawings/specs (if available)

• Maintenance logs, contractor reports, and recent project invoices

• Any known issues or planned projects (envelope, roofing, parkade, mechanical, etc.)

If you’re missing items, don’t worry—your board/manager questionnaire and our site visit help fill gaps.

While each building is unique, reserve fund studies commonly focus on major capital components such as:

• Building envelope (roofs, windows, siding, sealants)

• Mechanical systems (boilers, MAUs/ventilation, pumps)

• Parkades and structural elements (where applicable)

• Other shared/common property items that drive long-term capital spending

Your final component list is based on the building type, age, and what’s present on site and in documentation.

Timelines vary by building size, complexity, and how quickly documents are provided. In general, the workflow is:

• Quote and kickoff (quick)

• Online document upload + board questionnaire

• Site visit scheduling

• Report preparation and delivery

If you have a deadline (AGM, lender requirement, or compliance timing), include it in the quote request so we can plan the schedule appropriately. Check out our reserve fund study timeline guide

Reserve fund study pricing depends on factors like:

• Building size and complexity (number of components, amenities, parkade, etc.)

• Quality and availability of documents

• Site access and coordination requirements

• Level of detail required in reporting and outputs

We provide transparent pricing in our proposal so boards can plan without surprise charges. Check out our reserve fund study cost guide.

The fastest way to start is to request a quote and share your building details and timeline. From there, you’ll receive a proposal with clear next steps. Once you proceed, you can complete the board questionnaire and upload documents through our portal, then we schedule the site visit and deliver the final report online.

Yes. Edmonton buildings often have major cost drivers tied to building envelope performance (roofing, windows, sealants, cladding) and parkade exposure (wear, drainage, and durability). Our on-site review and component planning are designed to capture these long-term capital items so boards can plan funding proactively.
