We walk your board through the results in plain language and stay available for questions, before and after the AGM.
A general firm can audit a condo. A condo-focused firm already knows where the questions are, so your manager gets fewer emails and your board gets fewer surprises.
We audit residential, commercial and industrial condominium corporations, as well as shared facilities corporations.
The questions boards and property managers ask us most, answered without the accounting-speak.
Yes, in almost every case. The Condominium Act, 1998 requires owners to appoint an auditor and requires audited financial statements to be presented at each AGM. The main exception is a corporation with fewer than 25 units where all owners consent in writing to not appoint an auditor.
It depends mostly on the number of units, how many bank and investment accounts the corporation has, and how organized the year-end records are. Your proposal states one fixed fee covering the audit, statements and T2. If something unusual comes up, we talk to you before doing any extra work.
Fieldwork usually takes one to two weeks once the books are closed. From year-end to signed statements is typically two to four months, which leaves time for the AGM notice period.
The usual year-end package: trial balance and general ledger, bank and investment statements, the budget, board minutes, major contracts, the reserve fund study, and a list of owner arrears. We send a dated checklist before year-end.
Not at all. Changing auditors takes one board decision, and owners appoint the new auditor at the AGM. We give you the motion wording. Your records, your bank and your manager stay exactly the same, and we request the prior auditor’s files and opening balances, so nothing has to be rebuilt.
On request, yes. We walk the treasurer and board through the statements before they approve them, and at the AGM we can briefly present the results and answer owners’ questions.
