1.0 INTRODUCTION. The Village at Highlands Owners Association, through Mr. Paul Carrier of Associa Community Group, authorized Criterium Engineers to conduct a Property Evaluation and Reserve Study for the Village at Highlands community, located at Mechums River Road and Gate Post Lane,. Studies of this nature are important to ensure that a community has sufficient funds for long-term, periodic capital expenditure requirements. Anticipating large expenditures over an extended period of time through a structured analysis and scheduling process assists the Association in meeting financial requirements without increasing the service fees above permitted maximums, borrowing the funds, or levying special financial assessments to the owners. Typically, a community association has two broad cash requirements: the general operating reserves and the capital repair and replacement reserves. In this report, we will focus on those items falling under the capital repair and replacement reserve criteria. We have projected a capital repair and replacement reserve for twenty-five (25) years. The first five years are the most reliable. Such a study should be updated every three to five years. This report is structured to analyze common components of the community for which the Association is responsible and to assess a useful expected life and useful remaining life to those components. The anticipated scheduled repair or replacement of the component and the anticipated expense for the activity are then analyzed in conjunction with the current capital reserves funding program for the community. Funding program recommendations are made with the objective of limiting substantial cash excesses while minimizing financial burdens that can result from significant cash inadequacies. This report is intended to be used as a tool to determine reserve fund allocation requirements for the community, to manage future Association obligations, and to inform the community of future financial needs in general. The report that follows has been prepared from the perspective of what an owner of this property would benefit from knowing. Some items, beyond those of immediate concern, may be discussed. Therefore, the report should be read in its entirety in order to fully understand all of the information that has been obtained. Reserve Study Village at Highlands Owners Association Page 1

2.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Village at Highlands community is located in Crozet within Albemarle County in Virginia. It is approximately one mile east of the intersection of Route 250 and Route 240 (Three Notch d Road). The property consists of 50 building lots along Mechums River Road and Gate Post Lane. The dwellings are constructed as duplexes on two adjacent lots. There are presently 50 homes with the last four completed in 2012. The building and grounds are generally in good condition. Based on our evaluation, the current level of contributions to reserves for this community will prove inadequate to maintain positive capital reserve fund balances, and result in deficits starting in 2031, Year 16 of the planning period. We have developed two alternate funding plans for the Board s consideration. A more detailed analysis of the reserve fund has been provided in Appendix A. Based on our observations, there are no immediate material deficiencies. Capital expenditures expected over the next twenty-five years are discussed later in this report. For your convenience, we have prepared a summary table of the condition of the major systems of the property. Please see the following page.

3.0 PURPOSE & SCOPE 3.1 Purpose The purpose of this study is to perform a reserve fund analysis and to determine a capital needs plan. It is intended to be used as a tool for the Village at Highlands Owners Association in determining the allocation requirements into the reserve fund in order to meet future anticipated capital expenditures for the community. This report forecasts obligations for the community twenty-five years into the future. It should be noted that events might occur that could have an effect on the underlying component or system useful life assumptions used in this study. Likewise, inevitable market fluctuations can have an impact on component or system replacement and repair costs. Therefore, a study such as this should be updated from time to time, usually on a three to five-year cycle, in order to reflect the most accurate needs and obligations of the community. 3.2 Scope This study has been performed according to the scope as generally defined by Mr. Paul Carrier, Associa Community Group, the Village at Highlands Owners Association, Criterium Engineers, and the standards of the Community Associations Institute. The findings and recommendations are based on interviews with the community s management personnel; a review of available documents; and an investigation of the buildings and site. The guidelines used to determine which physical components within the community are to be included in the component inventory are based on the following general criteria: 1. The component must be a common element, or otherwise noted to be the responsibility of the Association to replace. 2. The component must have an estimated remaining useful life of twenty-five years or less. As the site ages, additional components may need to be added. 3. The funding for replacement should be from one source only, not funded from another area of the budget or through a maintenance contract. 4. The cost of replacement should be high enough to make it financially unsound to fund it from the operating budget. 5. Components, such as painting, which are considered deferred maintenance, are most appropriately funded from the Operating Budget instead of Reserves. Our reserve study analysis included evaluating the following association property: Site and Grounds: The property consists of 50 building lots with 50 homes constructed on them. The site and grounds common items include the mailboxes, lamp posts, privacy fences, and entrance sign. Reserve Study Village at Highlands Owners Association Page 4

Reserve Study Village at Highlands Owners Association Page 5 Building Common Elements: The common elements generally consist of the roof, gutters and downspouts, siding, trim, shutters, front doors and garage doors. The above list was obtained from documents provided by the board and by discussions with some of the board members. We did not inspect any interiors of the homes. This study estimates the funding levels required for maintaining the long term viability of the facility. Our approach involves: 1. Examining association managed equipment, buildings and site facilities. 2. Predicting their remaining service life and, approximating how frequently they will require repair or replacement. 3. Estimating repair or replacement costs (in 2015 dollars) for each capital item. 4. Using data developed in Steps 1, 2 and 3 to project Capital Reserve balances for Years 1 through 25. The statements in this report are opinions about the present condition of the subject community. They are based on visual evidence available during a diligent investigation of all reasonably accessible areas falling under the responsibility of the Association. We did not remove any surface materials, perform any destructive testing, or move any furnishings. This study is not an exhaustive technical evaluation. Such an evaluation would entail a significantly larger scope than this effort. For additional limitations, see Section 8.0. 3.3 Sources of Information Onsite inspections of the property and meeting with some board members occurred on the following dates: March 24, 2015 April 23, 2015 The following people were interviewed during our study: Robbie Whitestone, President, Village at Highlands Owners Association. Kendon Stubbs, Treasurer, Village at Highlands Owners Association Treasurer, Robert Nelson, Building Committee Member, Village at Highlands Owners Association. The following documents were made available to us and reviewed: Village at Highlands Home Maintenance Information Quote for roof and gutter replacements by Roof Top Services, dated October 6, 2014. Proposal 1 for painting exterior trim, dated May 22, 2014.

Proposal 2 for painting exterior trim, dated May 7, 2014. Partial copy of the Village at Highlands Covenants, for common items listing. We based our cost estimates on some or all of the following: R.S. Means Our data files on similar projects Actual recent costs obtained from the association Budget pricing from local companies 3.4 Standards of Reference For your reference, the following definitions may be helpful: Excellent: Component or system is in "as new" condition, requiring no rehabilitation and should perform in accordance with expected performance. Good: Component or system is sound and performing its function, although it may show signs of normal wear and tear. Some minor rehabilitation work may be required. Fair: Component or system falls into one or more of the following categories: a) Evidence of previous repairs not in compliance with commonly accepted practice, b) Workmanship not in compliance with commonly accepted standards, c) Component or system is obsolete, d) Component or system approaching end of expected performance. Repair or replacement is required to prevent further deterioration or to prolong expected life. Poor: Component or system has either failed or cannot be relied upon to continue performing its original function as a result of having exceeded its expected performance, excessive deferred maintenance, or state of disrepair. Present condition could contribute to or cause the deterioration of other adjoining elements or systems. Repair or replacement is required. Adequate: A component or system is of a capacity that is defined as enough for what is required, sufficient, suitable, and/or conforms to standard construction practices. All ratings are determined by comparison to other buildings of similar age and construction type. Further, some details of workmanship and materials will be examined more closely in higher quality buildings where such details typically become more relevant. All directions (left, right, rear, etc.), when used, are taken from the viewpoint of an observer standing in front of a building and facing it. Repair/Replacement Reserves - Non-annual maintenance items that will require significant expenditure over the life of the buildings. Included are items that will reach the end of their estimated useful life during the course of this forecast, or, in the opinion of the investigator, will require attention during that time.

4.0 DESCRIPTION The Village at Highlands community is located in Crozet within Albemarle County in Virginia. It is approximately one mile east of the intersection of Route 250 and Route 240 (Three Notch d Road). The property consists of 50 building lots along Mechums River Road and Gate Post Lane. The dwellings are constructed as duplexes on two adjacent lots. There are presently 50 homes (25 duplexes). The homes were constructed between 2006 and 2012. There are three different models of homes that have been combined in the duplexes. The models generally range from 1,405 to 2,663 square feet of living area. They are wood framed with brick veneer and cement fiber siding with wood trim. The roof surfaces are of composite shingles. The windows are vinyl framed with double pane glass. Each house has a garage with a single 16 foot or two-8 foot garage doors. Each house has a mailbox located near the street. These are located at the property line with two mailboxes per post. Each lot also has a light fixture mounted on a wood post, which are positioned between the front of the house and the street. The duplexes have 12 foot long privacy fences attached to the rear of the building between the two back yards. Surface drainage from the properties generally flows toward drainage ditches at the street or to the rear of the properties to drainage ditches. 5.0 OBSERVATIONS The following key observations were made about the current condition of the common elements of the property. Site and Grounds Entrance sign: There is one sign located at the entrance to the Village at Highlands community on Mechums River Road. The painted and engraved sign is mounted on a brick wall. The sign is generally in good condition. Due to the average useful life, we have estimated that this sign will need to be repaired or replaced on a 10-year cycle starting in 2016. The brick structure appears to be in good condition and should not need repair or replacement within the next 25 years. Privacy fences: The privacy fences are of plastic construction and those inspected were in good condition. With an average useful life of approximately 18 years, replacement of these has been scheduled for 2024 through 2030. As we discussed, one fence was removed between house 1482 and 1480, which you commented that it was to be reinstalled. Furthermore, you commented that the new three-section fence between 4636 and 4634 is considered to be the homeowner s responsibility and not the community association. Mailboxes replace boxes: Reserve Study Village at Highlands Owners Association Page 7

According to our discussions, with your past experience, we have planned replacing two mailboxes per year starting in 2016. Mailboxes replace posts: The mailbox posts are generally in good condition; however, some minor damage was noted on some of the wood posts at grade level. This appears to be caused by mowers. You may want to place mulch around the posts to keep the mowers from hitting them. With an average useful life of approximately 20 years, replacing these posts is scheduled from 2026 through 2032. Lamp posts replace: The decorative lamps and wood posts in front of each home are generally in good condition. The light fixtures and lamps are not considered community property. Therefore, we have not included a repair or replacement budget. With an average useful life of approximately 20 years, replacing these wood lamp posts is scheduled from 2026 through 2032. At 4642, the post is damaged and attempts have been made to brace it. As we discussed, you have plans to replace or properly repair the damaged post in the near future. Building Exterior Overall Painting: The scope of work for painting a whole building includes pressure washing, carpentry repairs as necessary, caulking touchup, and painting of siding, trim, shutters, garage doors associated lamp & mailbox/newspaper posts and gutters (as needed.) This work has been scheduled on a 12 year cycle. The association has found that painting large groups is more efficient and economical. So, this work is scheduled in two groups, consisting of 32 and 18 houses. The first group of 32 houses is scheduled to be painted in 2018 with the remaining 18 houses to follow in 2019. The cycle will repeat in 2030 & 2031. Interim Pressure Washing: Pressure washing to remove overall dirt & mildew from building exteriors and stains from the gutters has been scheduled on a four year cycle. This is scheduled forward from the recent pressure washing activities in 2014 and current plan in 2015. In years when a building is scheduled for overall painting, this budget is not entered in the schedule separately. Interim Caulking Touchup: It was noted during the site visit that some of the windows are not caulked plus some caulked areas are failing (cracked). Caulking around windows and doors and junctions of different building materials has been scheduled Reserve Study Village at Highlands Owners Association Page 8

on an eight year schedule, which coincides with the trim painting schedule. The caulking should be completed prior to painting, especially in those areas where the caulking will also be painted. The houses have been scheduled in the same two groups as the painting. In years when a building is scheduled for overall painting, the caulking budget is not entered in the schedule separately. 32 houses have separate caulking budgets in 2022 and the other 18 in 2023. Interim Trim Painting: Painting the trim on the exterior of the buildings has been scheduled on an eight year cycle which coincides with the caulking schedule. The houses have been scheduled in the same two groups as the painting. In years when a building is scheduled for overall painting, the trim painting budget is not entered in the schedule separately. 32 houses have separate trim painting budgets in 2022 and the other 18 in 2023. Roof: The scope of work for resurfacing the roofs generally includes removal of the existing shingles, pipe flashings and roofing paper; installing new roofing paper, drip edge, shingles and new flashings. The work should also include the shingled areas at the soffit returns and to inspect and repair the copper roofing areas as needed. We have taken our current dollar cost estimate from the price quotation from Roof Top Services. Using a typical expected useful life of 25 years, roof resurfacing has been scheduled to occur in 2031 and run through 2035. The four newer homes are scheduled for resurfacing in 2037. Gutter replacement: This scope of work includes both the gutters and downspouts. For economy, the next cycle of this work has been scheduled to coincide with the roof resurfacing in 2031 through 2035 and finishing up in 2037. Front door refurbishment: As a result of discussion at our meeting on April 24, 2015; we have scheduled the front door refurbishing in two groups. The group of 32 homes will commence in 2016 and continue over five years thereafter. The group of 18 homes will commence in 2017 and similarly continue over five years thereafter Repair Items As directed by the Board, we have incorporated the following annual budget allowances for recurring, regular maintenance repairs in the capital expenditure projection: Roof repair: The annual budget is based on an inspection and repair of five homes. It commences in 2016. Reserve Study Village at Highlands Owners Association Page 9

Gutter repair: The annual budget is based on an inspection and repair of five homes. It commences in 2016. Trim carpentry repairs and paint touch-up: The annual budget is based on an inspection and repair of five homes. It commences in 2016. Siding carpentry repairs and paint touch-up: The annual budget is based on an inspection and repair of five homes. It commences in 2016. Building Interiors No common items. Mechanical No Common items. Amenities No common items. Other No common items. 6.0 RESERVE FUND ANALYSIS Using software developed by Criterium Engineers and KPMG Peat Marwick, we have analyzed capital reserves draw-down for the projected capital expenditures to determine the amount needed. The following is a projected reserve fund analysis for non-annual items as discussed in the report. This projection takes into consideration a reasonable return on invested moneys and inflation. Please review this thoroughly and let us know of any changes that may be desired. The intent of this reserve fund projection is to help the Association develop a reserve fund to provide for anticipated repair or replacements of various system components during the next 25 years. The capital items listed are those that are typically the responsibility of the home owner s association and are derived from a list provided by the property manager and the association. However, association by-laws vary, and therefore, which components are the responsibility of the owner and which are the responsibility of the Association can vary. The Village at Highlands Owners Association should confirm that the items listed should be financed by the reserve fund. This projection provides the following: An input sheet that defines all the criteria used for the financial alternatives, including the assumed inflation rate and rate of return on deposited reserve funds. Reserve Study Village at Highlands Owners Association Page 10

A table that lists anticipated replacement and/or repair capital expenditures complete with estimated remaining life expectancies, projected costs of replacement and/or repair, a frequency in years of when these items require replacement and/or repair, and a projection based on this frequency. Tables that represent end of year balances versus capital expenditures based on your current funding program and reserve balances, and alternatives to your current program. The Association should bear in mind that unanticipated expenditures can always arise and maintenance of a significant reserve fund balance can be viewed as a way to avoid special assessments. Starting Capital Reserve Fund Balance: $204,094 (estimated on 01/01/2016) Current Funding Rate: $2,933 per month Based on our developed list of capital expenditures and taking inflation into account, the current rate of funding will prove inadequate to maintain positive capital reserve fund balances starting in 2031 or Year 16 of the study period. We initially prepared two alternatives for the Board s consideration: Alternative 1: Increase the annual contribution to reserves by $100 per Unit starting in 2017 or Year 2. This will maintain positive Fund Balances over a threshold value of $100,000 throughout the 25-Year planning period. Alternative 2: Increase the rate of contribution to reserves by 25%. In each of six years: 2018, 2020, 2022, 2024, 2026 & 2028 (or Years 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 & 13.) This will maintain positive Fund Balances throughout the 25- Year Planning Period. After their review, the Board suggested these approaches, which honor a covenantal limit on annual increases of assessments to 10%: Alternative 3: Increase the rate of overall assessment by 10% annually, while holding increases to operating & maintenance costs to 2%. Transfer the resulting operating surpluses to capital reserves. If this were done for the next six years, 2016 2021, then the amount of contribution could remain level thereafter, throughout the remainder of the planning period. Alternative 4: Increase the rate of contribution to the capital reserve fund by 10% annually. If this were done over the next 15 years, 2016-2030, then the income level would be sufficient to remain level for four years, 2030-2033. Although out-year projections are only speculative, it appears that over the last seven years of the planning period, 2034-2040, the rate of contribution might be reduced by 10% annually.

7.0 LIMITATIONS The observations described in this study are valid on the date of the investigation and have been made under the conditions noted in the report. We prepared this study for the exclusive use of Associa Community Group Management Company and the Village at Highlands Owners Association. Criterium Engineers does not intend any other individual or party to rely upon this study without our express written consent. If another individual or party relies on this study, they shall indemnify and hold Criterium Engineers harmless for any damages, losses, or expenses they may incur as a result of its use. This study is limited to the visual observations made during our inspection. We did not remove surface materials, conduct any destructive or invasive testing, move furnishings or equipment, or undertake any digging or excavation. Accordingly, we cannot comment on the condition of systems that we could not see, such as buried structures and utilities, nor are we responsible for conditions that could not be seen or were not within the scope of our services at the time of the investigation. We did not undertake to completely assess the stability of the buildings or the underlying foundation soil since this effort would require excavation and destructive testing. Likewise, this is not a seismic assessment. We did not investigate the following areas: Buried utilities or infrastructure Concealed structural members or systems Attic areas All interior spaces We do not render an opinion on uninvestigated portions of the community. We did not perform any computations or other engineering analysis as part of this evaluation, nor did we conduct a comprehensive code compliance investigation. This study is not to be considered a warranty of condition, and no warranty is implied. The appendices are an integral part of this report and must be included in any review. In our Reserve Fund Analysis, we have provided estimated costs. These costs are based on our general knowledge of building systems and the contracting and construction industry. When appropriate, we have relied on standard sources, such as Means Building Construction Cost Data, to develop estimates. However, for items that we have developed costs (e.g.: structural repairs), no standard guide for developing such costs exists. Actual costs can vary significantly, based on the availability of qualified contractors to do the work, as well as many other variables. We cannot be responsible for the specific cost estimates provided. We have performed no design work as part of this study, nor have we obtained competitive quotations or estimates from contractors as this also is beyond the scope of the project. The actual cost to remedy deficiencies and deferred maintenance items that we have identified may vary significantly from estimates and competitive quotations from contractors.
