Common Questions

What Florida developers ask about audited financials.

How have the new Fannie/Freddie rules changed project audits?

Fannie Mae Lender Letter LL-2026-032 and Freddie Mac Bulletin 2026-C eliminated the Limited Review path and raised reserve requirements, putting audited financial statements at the center of project eligibility. Developers and associations seeking warrantable status increasingly need audited figures.

Why are lenders and insurers asking for audited statements?

Insurance covenants and lender conditions now frequently require independently audited financial statements, particularly where reserve adequacy and going-concern questions are in play. The audit provides the third-party assurance those covenants assume.

What is going-concern disclosure and when does it apply?

When conditions raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue operating for a reasonable period, the auditor evaluates management's plans and the financial statements disclose the matter. For developers facing financing or insurance pressure, auditors look at this area carefully.
