What New Jersey law says

New Jersey is one of the states that writes a reserve study into law. Under N.J.S.A. 45:22A-44.2 and 45:22A-44.3 (P.L.2023, c.214, S2760/A4384; amended P.L.2025, c.132), associations must have a study every 5 years; the rule applies to all planned real estate development associations (condos, HOAs, co-ops) except those with less than $25,000 in common area capital assets; separate structural inspections for covered concrete, masonry or steel residential buildings.

The statute also says who may do the work: A CAI-credentialed reserve specialist or a New Jersey-licensed engineer or architect; board members may not prepare it. Ask a firm to confirm, in its proposal, that the person signing the report meets that test.

On disclosure: Associations using the 85 percent funding option must give owners a 20-point bold notice of the expected special assessment or loan, and sellers must give it to buyers before contract.

P.L.2023, c.214 took effect January 8, 2024 (first study due within one year if none in prior 5 years). P.L.2025, c.132 (August 21, 2025) tied adequacy to a 30-year plan that never goes below zero and allowed 85 percent funding for up to five fiscal years.

DCA does not enforce reserve compliance for owner-controlled associations; disputes go to civil court.

What a study costs in New Jersey

Firms price a reserve study by the work, not the state: the number of buildings, the length of the component list, the level of service and the travel. A community of 50 to 150 units usually pays $2,000 to $8,000 for a full study with a site visit; an update with a visit is quoted at about 50 to 80 percent of a full study, and an update from the desk at 25 to 50 percent of a full study, often under $1,000 for a small community. The cost page has the estimator, the ranges by community size and where the figures come from.

Proposals from firms in New Jersey will differ on the level of service before they differ on the fee. Comparing proposals sets out what to read first.
