Mastering Budget Season: Strategies for HOA Success

Adam Haney |

Budget season doesn’t have to be stressful—if you have the right plan in place. Join us for Mastering Budget Season: Strategies for HOA Success, featuring guest speaker and expert Adam Haney. This in-depth session will guide board members through every stage of budget preparation, from gathering accurate financial data and reviewing past spending patterns to anticipating future needs and aligning the budget with the community’s long-term vision. You’ll gain a step-by-step framework for creating a balanced, transparent budget that not only meets operational needs but also builds homeowner trust.

Adam will share proven strategies for forecasting expenses, factoring in reserve contributions, planning for inflation and rising vendor costs, and addressing unexpected repairs without derailing the budget. He’ll also cover effective ways to present the budget to homeowners, handle questions, and promote understanding and support. Plus, you’ll learn how to avoid the most common budgeting pitfalls that can lead to shortfalls or special assessments. Don’t miss this opportunity to walk into budget season fully prepared, confident, and ready to set your HOA on a path to financial stability.

Our panels are offered in a casual atmosphere to enable board members, homeowners, managers, and other professionals to hear about important topics presented by experts in the industry, and share experiences and issues. Come and connect with your peers and attend this important and exciting meeting of the Echo Sacramento Resource Panel.
