Total deficit for 2005 - $154,983

They do have about 400K in notes as reserves, but they have more debt (mostly long term) than assets. Again, not sure if this is typical or not.

long term debt is probably a bank mortgage that most co-ops have. in my case it's around $37 million for 12 buildings

when they say 50% deductible maintenance, it's a combo of taxes and this building mortgage debt
