What you need to know for this week's episode:The WSJ reported Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are raising condo reserve requirements from 10% to 15% of annual dues. With 39% of associations already in a "weak" financial state, boards that have been deferring the reserves conversation can't afford to wait any longer. Yahoo Finance reports older condos built before 2000 are now carrying double the annual fees of newer buildings, making it critical for managers to get in front of their boards with a clear reserve plan before the market makes that decision for them.
