Buying a condo in Calgary involves more than reviewing the unit itself. The financial health and governance of the condominium corporation can affect future condo fees, special assessments and your overall cost of ownership. A condo document review can help identify concerns within reserve fund planning, financial statements, budgets, insurance, bylaws, meeting minutes and other corporation records before you remove conditions.
CostQS provides independent condo document reviews designed to turn complex condominium documents into clear, practical findings. Whether you are purchasing an apartment-style condo, townhouse or other condominium property, the goal is to help you understand potential financial risks and make a more informed buying decision.
A condo document review can examine financial statements, budgets, reserve fund information, insurance, bylaws, meeting minutes, special assessments and other condominium corporation records. The level of analysis depends on the review option selected.
Turnaround depends on the level of review selected. CostQS offers a Preliminary Review with a target turnaround of approximately 1 hour, a Snapshot Assessment with a target turnaround of approximately 3 hours, and a Detailed Review with a target turnaround of 2 business days.
CostQS offers three levels of condo document review starting at $99 + GST for a Preliminary Review, $199 + GST for a Snapshot Assessment, and $349 + GST for a Detailed Review. If you start with the Preliminary Review and upgrade, the $99 is credited toward the higher-level review.
A review can help identify potential concerns involving reserve fund planning, financial health, special assessments, insurance, budgets, condominium fees, bylaws, meeting minutes and other corporation records. The purpose is to give you a clearer understanding of potential risks before making your purchasing decision.
Buyers commonly use a condo document review as part of their due diligence before removing conditions. Reviewing the corporation’s documents can provide important information about its financial position, governance and potential future costs that may not be apparent from viewing the unit itself.
Missing or incomplete documents can themselves be important to identify. CostQS can review the information available and identify where additional documentation or clarification may be appropriate before you make your final purchasing decision.
