HOA Treasurer Report Template: The Monthly Report to the Board, With a Filled-In Sample
An HOA treasurer's report is a one-page monthly summary the treasurer gives the board: the cash in each fund, the month against budget, reserve activity, owners behind on dues, and what the board needs to approve.
Every line of the template names the statement it is copied from, so you copy numbers instead of building them. The filled-in sample is Demo Ridge HOA, 60 homes, October 2026: invented data, in both files and on this page.
What is an HOA treasurer's report?
An HOA treasurer's report is a one-page monthly summary for the board. It shows the cash in each fund, the month against budget, reserve activity, owners behind on dues, and items to approve.
The report is presented at the board meeting and kept with the minutes. It has 6 sections and 3 built-in checks, and every line is copied from a statement the books already produce. The full reports behind this summary are explained in HOA financial statements.
What should an HOA treasurer's report include?
6 sections: cash by fund, reconciled bank balances, income and expense against budget, reserve transfer and spending, owners behind on dues, and items for the board to approve.
- 1. Cash by fund. The operating fund cash and the reserve fund cash, from the balance sheet by fund.
- 2. Reconciled bank balances. Each bank account at month end, after the reconciliation.
- 3. Income and expense against budget. Dues billed, each cost line and the transfer to reserves, with the budget and the gap.
- 4. Reserve transfer and spending. The reserve balance at the start, the transfer in, the interest, the spending, the balance at the end.
- 5. Owners behind on dues. How many owners are behind and how much is owed, by age.
- 6. Items for the board to approve. What the board must vote on or note in the minutes this month.

When is the HOA treasurer's report presented?
At each regular board meeting, after the books for the month are closed. The report is kept with the meeting minutes.
The order each month is: the bookkeeper closes the month and reconciles both accounts, the statements go to the treasurer, the treasurer fills in the report, the board reads it at the meeting. What owners must be shown, and when, is set by state law and the governing documents, a question for the association's attorney. The rest of the treasurer's calendar is in HOA treasurer duties.
How is an HOA treasurer's report different from the HOA financial statements?
The financial statements are the full reports. The treasurer's report is a one-page summary of them, with the items the board must act on.
The statements run to several pages: the balance sheet by fund, income and expense against budget, the bank reconciliations, reserve activity and the list of owners behind. The treasurer's report fits on one page and points back to them. The board reads the page; the statements are there for anyone who wants the detail.
Multifamily Bookkeeping sends the statements this report is copied from, every month. See our HOA bookkeeping service.
