Special Tests & Provisions

The replacement reserve account was underfunded by $4,000. Context: The Project received a budget-based rent increase adjustment letter from HUD stating that the required replacement reserve deposit amount will be increasing from $1,350 to $1,850 effective November 10, 2023. The Project did not increase the reserve deposits to the new required amounts before year end. Therefore, the replacement reserve account was underfunded by $4,000 at year end. Cause: The required replacement reserve deposits were not increased to $1,850 per month effective November 10, 2023. This left the replacement reserve account underfunded by $4,000. Effect: Insufficient funds in the replacement reserve account could lead to the inability to cover necessary repairs and replacements, potentially affecting the quality and safety of the housing provided. Recommendation: The Project should review its budgeting process to ensure compliance with HUD funding requirements for the replacement reserve account. Additionally, they should implement regular monitoring to prevent future underfunding. Views of responsible officials: In July 2024 management identified the increase in the monthly deposits and made a deposit in July 2024 to the replacement reserve cash account for the deficiency.
