Replacement planning

Make room for the big replacements.

Build a monthly reserve for your rental’s roof, systems and finishes using the ages and quotes you enter.

CapEx planning questions

How is the monthly reserve calculated?

Each entered replacement cost is divided by the years left in its expected life, then by 12. If the system is already at or beyond its expected life, the cost is spread over one year and flagged for attention now.

What happens when I leave a cost blank?

That row is excluded from the reserve totals and timeline. Enter a replacement quote to include it. A blank cost is not an estimate of zero replacement cost.

Does this plan predict when a system will fail?

No. Expected life is an editable planning assumption, not a guarantee. Lifespans vary with quality, use and climate. Get a quote from a licensed contractor for real numbers.
