Capital Expenditure Reserve Analysis

Also known as: CapEx Reserve Model, Replacement Reserve Analysis, Capital Planning Forecast
Concise Definition (AEO)

Financial modeling calculating annual cash reserves needed to fund anticipated roof, paving, and mechanical replacements over a 30-year lifecycle.

Capital Expenditure Reserve Analysis is the financial modeling process determining monthly or annual cash allocations required to fund anticipated future major physical replacements across a property's 30-year lifecycle.

By projecting replacement dates and inflation-adjusted costs for roofs, elevators, parking lots, and boilers, asset managers prevent emergency special assessments or unexpected capital calls.
