Condominiums and Cooperatives – SIRS Reporting

A SIRS is a budget planning tool that looks at the parts of a building a condominium association is required to maintain, the status of the condominium’s existing reserve fund, and the amount of funding needed to offset anticipated expenses. A SIRS is a type of reserve study used to ensure condo owners are reserving the funds needed for future major repairs and replacement of structural elements on the condominium property. A SIRS includes eight specific structural elements that are critical to the safety of the building:

• Roof
• Structural Systems
• Fireproofing & Fire Protection Systems
• Plumbing
• Electrical Systems
• Waterproofing & Exterior Painting
• Windows & Exterior Doors
• Other elements over $25,000 that have an impact on the structural integrity of the building as determined by the visual portion of the SIRS

As of July 1, 2024, within 45 days of the SIRS being completed, a condominium association must electronically submit a completed SIRS Reporting Form to Division of Condominiums, Timeshares and Mobile Homes.

By October 1, 2025, all condominium and cooperative associations are required to create an online account with the Division of Condominiums, Timeshares and Mobile Homes. To streamline the process and enhance reporting accuracy, associations will now confirm the completion of the Structural Integrity Reserve Study through the association’s online account.  With recent legislation, associations are now required to complete a Structural Integrity Reserve Study by December 31, 2025.

To submit information related to your association and the Structural Integrity Reserve Study, please create an account and log in to the Department’s online account portal HERE.

Instructions for creating an online account with the Division are located HERE.

If you have any questions about creating an account or submitting information, please contact the Division at (954) 202-6831.
