EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE
Santa Ana Poised to Adopt Local Rent Control, Just Cause Eviction Laws
T
he Santa Ana City Council took its first step toward adopting local rent control and just cause eviction ordinances after nearly seven hours of public comment and council discussion at its regularly scheduled meeting on September 21, 2021. A mandatory second reading of the ordinances and final council vote is scheduled for October 5, 2021. If approved by the city council, the ordinances would take effect 30 days later. The proposed rent control ordinance, which is modeled after those in Santa Monica and San Francisco, would likely end up being the most restrictive and punitive in California. Among the key provisions in the ordinances are: • Rent increases capped at 3 percent or 80 percent of the change in the local Consumer Price Index (CPI), whichever is less within the city. • A limited and strict petition process for owners to get a higher rent increase • Just cause eviction protections that start on the 31st day of tenancy, rather than after 12 months • Prohibiting evictions of households with students during the school year • Requiring the District Attorney to prosecute an individual in order to evict for criminal activity • Mandating larger relocation assistance payments to households, exceeding current state requirements

• Undetermined and unlimited fees on landlords to fund the program development, implementation, and enforcement. The secretive manner by which the ordinances were not only discussed and developed but also placed on the agenda for city council action was concerning and surprising to AAOC and its housing coalition partners. To say that the process lacked transparency would be an understatement. An ad-hoc committee comprised of Mayor Vicente Sarmiento and Councilmembers Thai Viet Phan and Jessie Lopez had apparently been discussing the matter outside the public eye for some time, as part of an ongoing examination of city housing issues. At some point, city staff was directed to move forward with developing the ordinances and placing them on the September 21 city council agenda as urgency measures so, if approved, they could take effect when the state eviction moratorium expired on September 30. Aside from the policy proposals themselves and the specific provisions in the ordinances, AAOC and our coalition partners took exception to the fact that neither the ad-hoc committee members nor city staff ever notified or held discussions with rental property owners and operators in the city, or the associations that represent them, about their consideration and development of the ordinances. To overlook or exclude a key stakeholder group that would be directly

impacted by the proposed rent control and just cause eviction ordinances is inexcusable. What’s more, questions have been raised about the legality of the ad-hoc committee directing staff to draft city policy, as the committee did not meet and operate under established open meeting and government transparency laws, under which such discussion and staff direction should have occurred. The Santa Ana City Council majority has clearly signaled its intention to approve the rent control and just cause eviction ordinances when they are presented for a second reading and vote. AAOC and its housing coalition partners have been discussing the situation and strategizing way to stop the ordinances from being implemented. Litigation is not a viable option, but a referendum is. For readers who may be unfamiliar, a referendum is a tool under state law that allows citizens 30 days to gather a specified number of eligible voter signatures in opposition to an action of a governing body, and then force that governing body to either rescind the action or place it on the ballot for the voters to decide. Once the Santa Ana City Council approves the rent control and just cause eviction ordinances, this is the course of action that will be taken. Once the referendum has qualified, implementation and enforcement of the ordinances will be placed on hold Director’s Message — continued on page 44

SACRAMENTO REPORT B y R on K ingston
Efforts Continue to Repeal Article 34 of the California Constitution
S
ometimes I wonder why legislation that makes a whole lot of sense does not move forward. Unfortunately, Senate Constitutional Amendment 2 (SCA 2), by Senators Allen and Wiener, for example, should have moved through the legislative process this year. The state constitutional amendment proposed to repeal Article 34 of the California Constitution which requires approval by the voters of a city or county for the development, acquisition of a publicly funded affordable housing project. Under the California Constitution, Article 34: • Requires majority approval by the voters of a local government for a publicly funded “low-rent housing project.” • A “low rent housing project” as defined in the California constitution does not apply to any development composed of urban or rural dwellings, apartments, or other dwellings such as: – The development of privately owned housing receiving no property tax exemption and not more than 49% of the dwellings to be occupied by persons of low income. – The development is privately owned housing and not exempt from property taxes by reason of any public ownership, and

not financed with direct longterm public financing from a government. – The development is intended for owner-occupancy rather than for rental-occupancy. – The development consists of newly constructed, privately owned one-to-four family dwellings not on adjourning sites. – The development consists of existing dwelling units leased by the state from a private owner of the dwelling units. – The development consists of the rehabilitation, improvement, or addition to, or replacement of dwelling units of a previously existing low-rent project. – The development consists of the acquisition, rehabilitation, reconstruction, improvement or any combination thereof, of a rental housing development which prior to the date of the transition to acquire, rehabilitate, reconstruct, improve or any combination thereof that was subject to a contract for federal or state assistance for the purpose of providing affordable housing for low-income households and maintains or enters into, a contract for federal or state assistance for the purpose of providing affordable housing. October 2021
Unquestionably, Article 34 was created in response to the Federal Housing Act of 1949, part of President Truman’s Fair Deal to help lower-income postwar families move into better living situations. At the time, 72 years ago, society had an extremely different attitude about race, ethnicity, class and poverty. There were far fewer tools for residents to alter or block plans for new housing — the California Environment Quality Act, the Brown Act, the Coastal Act, and far fewer lawsuits. California voters have made it clear they want California to do better — much better — for those struggling to afford housing, supporting ballot measures dedicating hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars to tackle the housing and homeless crises. The state owes it to all taxpayers to use the money as efficiently as possible. SCA 2 is designed to give voters an opportunity to eliminate obstacles enshrined in the State Constitution from a bygone era, that some argue was strongly based as a discriminatory practice. The Housing Act of 1949 banned explicit racial segregation in public housing which left cities scrambling to find alternative ways to separate communities of color from white neighborhoods. The real estate industry was not able to stop the passage of the Housing Act of 1949 at the federal level, sought to slow and stop its implementation at the state and local level. The enactment of Article 34 grew out of a controversy surrounding a lowincome housing project in Eureka. The
local housing authority had applied for federal funding to cover the costs of planning and surveys for a low-income public housing development. Following the application for funding, the city clerk received a signed petition from more than 15% of the city electorate requesting any city council approval of the loan application be submitted to the voters for approval. A lawsuit followed and made its way to the California Supreme Court, holding the power of referendum applies only to legislative acts, not acts that are executive or administrative. Since the acts were administrative, and not legislative, the people could not use a referendum to change the city government’s decisions and the court had no jurisdiction. Given that the citizens of Eureka could not make decisions around lowincome developments in their community, they joined forces with the California Real Estate Association (now known as the California Association of REALTORS®) the organization behind the measure enacting Article 34. At the time, CREA argued: “If you value your property, if you hold liberty dear, if you believe in the dignity of the individual, if you love this land of the free and home of the brave, if you desire to stop the enemy of socialism that is gnawing at the vitals of America from within, the ballot box is your weapon, the one and only means by which our great Republic will be preserved and improved.” Article 34 requires that voter approval be obtained before any state public body develops, constructs, or acquires a low rent housing project. Local agencies usually seek general authority from the electorate to develop low-income housing prior to the identification of a specific project. This has been the traditional way cities and counties have addressed the issue of Article 34. In 1974, then Assembly Member Willie Brown authored a measure in the legislature that placed the repeal of Article 34 on the ballot as Proposition
15. That measure was defeated. In 1977, he authored a modification to Article 34 and Proposition 4 was placed on the 1980 ballot. That proposition was also defeated. The most recent attempt to repeal Article 34 occurred in 1993 as Proposition 16. That proposition also failed, even with 60% of voters supporting it, as a 2/3 vote is required to add or amend the state constitution. Should SCA 2 become a ballot measure, it would be placed on the November
October 2021
2022 ballot. Perhaps, just perhaps, the electorate will finally repeal Article 34 in the coming year.

he Apartment Association of Orange County (AAOC) is a rare entity in today’s world. It is an association of members who have a like-minded commitment to the entrepreneurial spirit of private property rights and free enterprise, as well as to providing safe, quality rental housing for so many who call Orange and Riverside County home. It has been an honor to work in support and advancement of these ideals over the past three

as a member of the AAOC staff. By the time you read this article, however, my time with AAOC will have come to an end and I will have begun a new chapter in my career outside of the rentalhousing industry. I will never forget the many acquaintances and friendships that I made during my time with the association, and I am grateful for having had the opportunity to work on behalf of so many good and generous people. The AAOC membership should be proud that the association not only survived the COVID pandemic, but that it has also grown during the past 18 months. The association is healthy and the number of members and units that AAOC represents in Orange and Riverside Counties has increased significantly. There are many reasons for the success of AAOC, but much of it can be attributed to the excellent leadership and fiduciary responsibility of the board of directors — all of whom serve in a volunteer capacity. AAOC has remained relevant and necessary because the world around us has been turned upside down, and it has adapted by providing even more education classes and the opportunity for members to learn about new ways to stay up-to-date and engaged with the everchanging laws and regulations from Sacramento. AAOC remains the best source for mom-and-pop rental property owners to receive crucial information and training for running their small busi-

nesses effectively and efficiently, not to mention state and local representation to help protect their rental property investments. Orange County politics is also evolving, and AAOC has been instrumental in recruiting and supporting candidates for local office who stand for private property rights and other issues that are highly important to the multi-family industry. As AAOC moves into the final quarter of 2021, it will be staying on top of our changing local, state, and federal legislative districts, and identifying and tracking the candidates who are planning to file for office in the 2022 elections. I would encourage members to get involved with the various AAOC committees and help support your association’s leadership. Every organization is only as good as its members who step up and contribute to the good of the cause. AAOC will always benefit from having members who make the decision to give of their time, to help maintain the health and growth of the association. Take a moment to look at the new AAOC website for a listing of the volunteer committees that might benefit from your service. In closing, I have enjoyed my time at AAOC, and I look forward to remaining in contact with the lifelong friends I have made during the past three years. 2022 will be another tumultuous year, but AAOC will remain a steady ship with a good crew at the helm. Best of luck to you all.

With the anticipated expiration of AB 832, can a housing provider evict for At-Fault or No-Fault Just Cause?
Until September 30, 2021, all residential properties, with some very limited exceptions, are subject to the Just Cause requirements of AB 1482. That means even single-family residences, which were previously exempt, are still temporarily covered and require Just Cause prior to termination of the tenancy. Termination for At Fault Just Cause (i.e., rent default, breach of a material term, nuisance, waste, refusal to renew a fixed-term lease, refusal to allow entry, or failure to vacate after tenant provided notice), are all grounds that are still allowed. Termination for No Fault Just Cause (i.e., withdrawal of the rental property from the rental market, intent to occupy by the owner, spouse, parent, grandparent, child, or grandchild), is permitted, but make sure the termination is not because the resident is not paying rent. Termination because the Lessor desires to substantially remodel or repair the Premises, if served prior to October 1, 2021, must relate to maintaining the habitability of the Premises rather than simply performing a renovation. After October 1, 2021, this restriction no longer applies. Note that for terminations to allow occupancy of a qualified family member, if the lease was entered into on or after July 1, 2020, specific language must be included in the lease. Also note, if the Premises are exempt pursuant to AB

1482, then you must serve the requisite notice of exemption prior to termination of the tenancy. Seems the more I read, the more uneasy I am becoming about the future of our industry. With the prospect of rent controls, eviction controls and all the other things headed our way, what should I be doing to prepare?
You have every reason to be concerned and are wise to prepare. Our industry, as well as our livelihood, is under attack from all sides. At the federal level, policies implemented by unelected bureaucrats at the DOJ and HUD a few years back are severely hindering our ability to properly screen applicants. The limitations on the use of criminal background reports, coupled with the changes in the reporting of adverse credit information limits the information available and the tools that housing providers have historically used to effectively screen prospective residents. At both the state and local levels, we now have rent restrictions in place for most rental housing. Although the rent caps in effect now may seem manageable today, there is nothing to prevent the CPI plus five per cent calculation (as of this writing) to be changed to CPI plus three, or two… For those housing providers who are already subject to some form of rent control, they are mildly comforted by the wisdom of vacancy decontrol that has been in
www.aaoc.com
October 2021
place since Costa-Hawkins was enacted in 1995. Vacancy decontrol, the ability to reset those rent controlled units’ rents to market upon a vacancy, functions as a pressure release valve, as limited as it is, that provides some relief to the outrageous limitations that full blown rent controls bring. The protections provided by Costa-Hawkins are in the cross hairs of many and are currently under assault. Proposition 10, which our industry rallied to defeat by over a two-to-one margin, and the second attack — Proposition 21 — in 2020, won’t be the end of that fight. As onerous as rent controls are, they pale in comparison to eviction controls, just cause eviction ordinances, rent boards, tenant unions, and the requirement to pay relocation benefits to residents who are asked to vacate. Relocation assistance can range from the equivalent of one month’s rent up to amounts in excess of $23,000. Hard to describe the requirement to pay relocation assistance as anything other than an involuntary re-distribution of wealth from housing providers to tenants. The assault on housing providers continues with the provision of free legal counsel to tenants facing eviction. What should be a limited and efficient method of removing problematic residents has in many ways turned into a circus, with courtrooms functioning more like a Moroccan bazaar, where the demands from these represented tenants, approach unconscionable levels, with the all-tooLegal Q&A — continued on page 12

Legal Q&A — continued from 10 common jury demand, all the while encouraged by a judiciary seemingly unwilling or unable to effectively meet out justice as required. The continued assault on Prop 13, the imposition of split roll taxes, the relaxing of the standards and the lowering of the vote threshold to impose parcel taxes, will all adversely affect our bottom lines, and in many cases will adversely affect our property values. Given the current legislative climate in Sacramento, a super majority in the hands of legislators that historically have not had our collective interests in mind, it is sure to be a rough road going forward, at least for the foreseeable future. Now, more than ever before, we must stand united as an industry, and remain united in our fight to preserve our rights as housing providers to continue to do what we do best. As housing providers, we have willingly invested our time and treasure in the provision of the housing stock, of providing the very real and the very necessary housing for the residents of California. Government does not do what we do, there are countless examples of failed government housing projects across the country. We have taken risks over the years by investing and improving the housing stock under our care. Most housing providers are hard-working, decent, responsible and caring individuals who recognize the great responsibility that comes with being a housing provider and take pride in what we do.
The vast majority are committed to doing the right thing and managing their properties responsibly. As an industry, we educate our own, we share our knowledge with the less experienced, we encourage education and training and foster responsible ownership. So how do we prepare for this brave new world approaching? We do what we do best, we perfect our craft, we stay alert and informed about the new rules and regulations headed our way. The game of owning and managing real estate continues, however the rules they are a changing.’ Now, more than ever before, thorough tenant screening is an absolute must. Understand that our tools are being limited, however, they are still available. Use them. Know that prospect well before you agree to hand over the keys. Criminal, credit and eviction reports are no longer optional, they are mandatory and should be utilized in every prospective resident screening and decision process. Be active in the management of your properties, recognize the early warning signs of aberrant behavior, maintain your properties as required, document and record evidence of tenant misbehavior, take pictures of damage caused, document lease violations, keep logs and notes of conversations and incidents with residents. Minimize the use of ‘text messages,’ rather use email or do it old school, actually draft and send letters. Text messages are often reactive, emotional, and not well thought out. Email and letters provide you an opportunity to control the message, affirm your

willingness to do as required, and document the tenant’s indiscretions and failure to perform as he or she is required. Maintain control of the communication process. Keep it professional and objective; never make it personal. Ensure that you are properly insured, a general liability policy, coupled with both a personal and a commercial umbrella, are absolute must haves. Consider employment practices and fair housing defense coverage as well, as these are generally excluded from basic policies. Consult an experienced insurance broker for review of your existing policies and adjust as necessary. For those that hold multiple properties, as in all investment vehicles, diversity is key. Diversity in type of asset, location of the holdings, and balance. Your investment portfolio should spread the risk inherent in any one particular investment vehicle to multiple asset classes. Now is not the time to be over leveraged, 50 to 60% loan to value can carry you through some rough times. Of course, carefully choose your advisors, ensure that their primary motivation is to do what is best for you. Above all, don’t panic.

Dear Maintenance Men:
I understand why it is bad to put banana peels, celery and potato skins down the garbage disposal as they are fibrous or prone to compression. However, why are coffee grounds also bad put down the disposal unit? The grains are small enough to pass right through. Michael
Dear Michael:
We find most people put too much in
the disposal and don’t use enough water. What happens with the coffee grounds, especially with back-to-back drains, is that the coffee grounds tend to pile up in the pipe as it goes through the wall. Over time it will pack the pipe completely. The garbage disposal does not have trouble with the grounds themselves, it is what happens after they leave the disposer. Again, if the coffee grounds are fed slowly into the disposal with plenty of water running,

the grounds will disperse and not compact in the drain line. However, it is best not to dump them in the sink in the first place.
Dear Maintenance Men:
I have a rental complex that is rented with all utilities paid. What is the best and most economical way to save on the utility costs? Marvin
Dear Marvin:
Blown-in attic insulation is the best bang for the buck when it comes to cutting down on heating and cooling. It is very quick and easy and economical. Blown in insulation is easy enough for a DIY, yet inexpensive enough to have a professional do the work. We also recommend replacing all of the incandescent light bulbs with LED light bulbs. This is as easy as unscrewing one energy hog bulb and replacing it with an ultra-efficient bulb. The LED bulbs offer far more light at a fraction of the cost. If you replace both the exterior house lights and the interior lights, you should see a substantial reduction in your utility bill. LED bulbs and light fixtures have a very long service life and will save money in the long run. You may want to check with your city or local utility supplier, as they often have low-cost energy savings programs and rebates.
Dear Maintenance Men:
I am planning to install a new sprinkler system in the lawn area of my
apartment building. How do I estimate the number of heads and how far apart do they need to be? John
Dear John:
First, get an accurate measurement of the area where you want to install the sprinkler system. Transfer the measurements to graph paper. Decide on a scale, such as one square of the graph paper equals one foot, or maybe, if you have a large area, one square equals five or ten feet. Draw the dimensions of the area you are planning to irrigate. Next, decide what type of sprinkler head you will be using, such as an impact sprinkler (Rainbird type), brass heads or pop up, or rotary heads. The manufacturer will list the water spray radius. If you want the diameter the head will cover, multiply by two, but knowing the radius should be enough for this purpose. The spray coverage should overlap each head between 80 and 100 percent. What this means is: if the sprinkler head has a spray radius of 10 feet. Each sprinkler head should be spaced 10 feet
apart. That is called head-to-head spacing. If you deviate greater than 80 percent, you may get dry spots at the times you need the water the most, such as during summer heat and windy conditions. Stated another way, sprinkler “A” should wet sprinkler “B” and so on. On the graph paper grid, the circles should intersect and touch each sprinkler head. Don’t forget, the more sprinkler heads you have the more you will need to pay attention to both gallons per minute (GPM) and the water pressure
supplying your sprinkler system. The sprinkler manufacturer should have a chart showing how many sprinkler heads can be controlled by one valve, depending on the GPM at a certain water pressure.

Surviving ‘The Great Resignation’
I
f 2020 was the year of COVID-19, then 2021 is shaping up to be the year of “I quit.”
After spending more than a year at home, an eye-popping 95% of all U.S. workers say they are now considering leaving their jobs, according to a recent Monster.com survey. In fact, according to the U.S. Department of Labor, nearly 12 million already have. Not too long ago, such a large number of people quitting would signal a booming economy. But the pandemic led to the worst recession in U.S. history, and as it recedes, millions are still unemployed. At the same time, employers say they’re struggling to fill almost 10 million job vacancies. The “Great Resignation,” as it’s now known, has many origins, but they all generally center on a single theme: People’s post-pandemic priorities have shifted, and their current jobs just aren’t cutting it anymore. Multifamily housing, already a high churn profession heading into the pandemic, has been particularly hard hit. Where 30–50% annual employee turnover was once the norm, anecdotal evidence suggests some are seeing close to 70% of their workers heading for the exits, including many of their most experienced property managers and maintenance personnel. What’s fueling the mass Exodus? Burnout, for one. During the pandemic, mandates like stay-at-home orders and eviction moratoriums placed unrelenting demands on onsite property staff,
16
Apartment News
leading many to feel overwhelmed and overworked. For others it was a sense of being poorly compensated and lacking growth opportunities that made them head for the exit. In general, people want more money, more flexibility and greater work-life balance, and they feel confident they’ll find that somewhere else. So, what’s the typical multifamily community owner or operator supposed to do? To quote a well-known computer company: “Think Different.” One of the reasons many in the industry have been so hard hit was a long-held assumption that high employee churn in site-level staff was acceptable because people could be quickly replaced. Covid upended that. More important, the additional time at home during the pandemic changed the expectations employees have of their employers to such a degree that millions of people are willing to quit an unfulfilling job in search of a better one. That kind of worker attrition leads to painful and potentially risky decisions like promoting inexperienced staff and piling more on to other people’s workloads. It’s not a sustainable model. The reality is a successful multifamily community needs good, dependable onsite staff to manage the asset, which isn’t possible if almost half of them leave every year. Interestingly, there’s a simple solution for the problem of churn: Recognize good work.

BY DANIEL CUNNINGHAM, CEO & FOUNDER, LEONARDO247
According to a recent survey by bonusly.com, 63 percent of those who said they were regularly recognized for their work were also very unlikely to look for a new job. Another easy way to keep good people is to invest in improving the tools available to them. To wit: Onsite staff is all too often still working with paper and spreadsheets in a world of smartphones and cloud computing. Providing people with access and training on newer cloud-based and mobile software technologies not only improves skill sets and job satisfaction, but it also benefits the whole business. Information from these systems is more timely, accurate and easily shared with others in the company. The pandemic radically changed what workers expect from their employers. Successful companies in multifamily housing who want to not just survive, but thrive, need to shed their conventional thinking and embrace these new standards to increase retention and improve operations. Recognizing employees for their good work and investing in their skills with new technology and training are two simple and effective ways to do that. Those who ignore it should expect to be hit hard by the Great Resignation. About the Author: Daniel Cunningham is CEO & Founder of Leonardo247 and Host of The Apartment Academy Podcast.

Great ShakeOut to Prepare Millions for Earthquakes
A
n estimated 18 million Americans will take part this month in the Great ShakeOut, a national safety drill designed to heighten awareness of ways to prepare for major earthquakes. The month will be filled with messages about earthquake risk and personal safety, culminating with the annual drill, which will be held October 21. Visit ShakeOut.org for more information. Being prepared personally by having a family emergency plan, adequate supplies on hand and learning to “Drop, Cover and Hold On” to avoid injury from falling objects are very important. However, we need to make resilience a priority throughout the year and also prioritize actions we can take to make our buildings, businesses and communities much safer during and after earthquakes. The Big One is coming, and it’s going to be like nothing any of us have ever experienced before. Experts say tens of thousands of our buildings are at extreme risk of failure or collapse when it happens. A recent study by CoreLogic estimates that a major quake along the San Andreas Fault could cause $289 billion in destruction, including 3.5 million homes damaged. What’s not calculated in that figure is the residual economic loss from broken infrastructure, shuttered businesses and public services, widespread homelessness, and general chaos.1
The 1994 Northridge quake caused $67 billion in widespread damage — ranking it as the second costliest natural disaster in U.S. history behind Hurricane Katrina. Yet the 6.7 magnitude of that temblor was relatively mild compared with what could be. Seismologists agree that a major quake of 7.5 magnitude or more is due to rattle California to its core. It’s just a matter of time. This month, I want us to be honest with each other and ourselves. If 18 million participate in this month’s ShakeOut — pack emergency kits for our children’s schools, the trunks of our cars, and practice Drop, Cover and Hold On at work — how many of us are going to take the extra step in the months ahead to think more broadly about the threats we are facing. • Will you or your residents still be able to live in your apartment building after that quake? • How many of our tilt-up warehouses and high-rise buildings will be closed due to damage? • Will you or a loved one be among the million people left homeless? • Will the business you work in or school you attend still be operating? California needs statewide measures to sustain our societies both socially and economically. The recommended steps for this process would be:
BY ALI SAHABI
• Identify vulnerable structures and other hazards in our communities. • Raise public awareness of the risks faced locally and encourage efforts to improve resilience. • Implement programs to assist building owners with earthquake retrofits. California ranks as the sixth largest economy in the world. In fact, 17 percent the nation’s job growth and 24 percent of its gross domestic product increase between 2012 and 2016 can be attributed to California, according to Stephen Levy, director of the Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy. If the Golden State were to suffer an earthquake catastrophe of epic proportions, the impacts would be felt throughout the nation. Resiliency against earthquakes is not only a California issue, but also a matter of national, and potentially global concern.

Why Real Estate Income Funds Have Distinct Benefits for Investors
T
he recent fluctuations in the United States stock market have many investors looking for more conservative and less volatile investments. On top of that, traditional investment instruments like stocks and bonds are similarly not looking very attractive because of their lackluster yield performances. Therefore, more and more investors are attracted to Real Estate Income Funds. While Kay Properties & Investments is best known for its expert-level knowledge of Delaware Statutory Trust 1031 exchange investment strategies and opportunities, the company also has a great reputation for working with nationally recognized real estate sponsors to source and structure All-Cash/ Debt-Free Real Estate Income Funds for accredited investors.
What is a Real Estate Income Fund?
In general terms, any “income fund” is simply a pool of capital that has been assembled on behalf of a group of investors. There are literally tens-ofthousands of different types of investment funds, including equity funds, bond funds, money market funds, mutual funds, and hedge funds. While direct ownership of real estate has been a popular investment for centuries, recently many investors have also started investing in real estate through participation in a fund. A Real Estate Income Fund is a specific subset of funds that is focused exclusively on investing in potentially

Apartment News
income-generating real estate. Real estate income funds provide another entry point for those looking to invest in large commercial or multifamily real estate portfolios. Real Estate Income Funds are particularly appealing to retail investors who want to own institutional quality real estate that would normally be out of reach for them. A Real Estate Income Fund pools capital from many investors, and then the fund’s sponsor oversees all the fund’s activities, including performing due diligence, underwriting, and property management. Investing in a Real Estate Income Fund is a great way to potentially generate passive income, gain access to institutional level assets, and avoid the responsibilities of direct ownership.
An Example of a Typical Real Estate Investment Fund Exclusively Offered by Kay Properties
Net Lease Income Fund 18 LLC: Focused on acquiring, owning, and actively managing a portfolio of singletenant, Long-term, NNN lease, income producing tenants operating in the industrial, medical, and retail spaces throughout select United States markets. This Real Estate Income Fund targets an 8% preferred return* for investors with monthly distributions generated through corporate backed leases. The offering size of this fund is $50,000,000 with a minimum investment of $50,000. Example properties the funds seek to acquire include those leased to recessionary-resistant, essential businesses

that remained open and paying rent during the pandemic, such as: Amazon, FedEx, Davita Kidney Care, Frito Lay, Walgreens, UPS, CVS, Coca-Cola, In-N-Out Burger, and 7 Eleven. * Preferred return is not guaranteed and is subject to available cash flow. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. For further information about cash flow distributions from operations and capital events, please refer to the Private Placement Memorandum.
Three Distinct Benefits of Investing in a Real Estate Income Funds Diversification The ability to diversify in real estate funds has attracted conservative investors that want to avoid the concentration risk that often accompanies purchasing one piece of real estate. Typically, real estate investing requires a large down payment in order to obtain a loan with reasonable terms, tying up a significant portion of investors’ wealth in a single asset. Funds allow an investor to often place a smaller amount of cash into a highly diversified portfolio, therefore mitigating risk through diversification. Not only do funds allow investors to diversify in different pieces of real estate all over the country but investors can also diversify their investment by asset type and tenants. Funds may hold multifamily apartments, net lease commercial assets, medical, industrial, etc. Asset types can have varying market cycles. Diversifying one’s investment across asset types and geography can Distinct Benefits — continued on page 22

21
Distinct Benefits — continued from 20 potentially insulate their investment from market volatility. * Diversification does not guarantee profits or protect against losses.
Depreciation An additional benefit to real estate income funds is the potential for depreciation. Many real estate income funds allow investors to depreciate their basis in the fund. The non-cash expense lowers the taxable income incurred from fund’s distributions. This may hold significant benefits for investors in high tax states such as California and New York. Investors should speak to their CPA to determine their own potential tax efficiencies from investing in real estate income funds. Able to Optimize Both Inflationary and Deflationary Market Cycles Finally, the ability for funds to continue to purchase real estate over time allows investors to optimize both infla-
tionary and deflationary market cycles. An inflationary market will theoretically drive up the value of the fund. In a deflationary cycle, the fund may continue acquiring assets, cost dollar averaging as the market retreats. Funds have the flexibility to pick up these assets at a discount. Cap rates often expand in a deflationary market, which will allow investors to potentially realize higher distributions as they wait for the market to turn around. Additional Potential Benefits of Real Estate Income Funds • Passive income and/or distribution potential • May provide monthly cash flow and/or distributions • Capital appreciation/equity growth potential • Tax advantages • Typically low minimum investment amounts ($25k–$50k)
• Professional asset management • Elimination of day-to-day management headaches While it is almost impossible to predict what the economic future will look like, many prudent investors are posturing their portfolios to mitigate risk while optimizing their upside potential no matter which direction the market turns. As more investors learn about the potential benefits of Real Estate Income Funds, their popularity will continue to grow throughout the coming years.

With college campuses now reopened, we have seen an upswing in rental market activity. There have been more inquiries and interest, and that opens the door to raising rental rates. Remember, the state rent control law only applies to current residents. When an apartment becomes vacant, the rental rate can be reset to whatever you want — at least in theory. The reality is your rent rate still has to be competitive, and that means doing some homework. After months upon months of everyone existing in hibernation mode, it is time to not only do a rent survey, but actual looking. Just checking a website, although helpful in establishing some baselines, does not provide a complete and true picture. An on-site visit is always the best. This is the point at which you need to be 100% honest with yourself in both evaluating the condition and appeal of your own property and in judging the competition. You also need to know and understand what type of renters are going to be attracted to your property and what rents are they willing and able to pay. And, you need to have a sense of what features these prospective residents are seeking and what are their “deal breakers.” In fact, this is probably an excellent time to seek the help of a knowledgeable and trusted advisor. You want someone who is well versed in your particular property type and location; and who also knows what features and/ or amenities command the best return

on investment. In conducting this type of rental survey, there are three key factors to consider — the rent, the condition of the property and the inclusion of preferred features. You may want to set this up as a comparison grid with your own property listed first. The process is very much like what a real estate agent or an appraiser does for sales comparatives. The goal is to attain the highest rent possible. During this evaluation process, you may find that by spending just a little money you may be able to achieve higher long-term rents. Perhaps some exterior cosmetic work is needed. Maybe it is replacing kitchen and bathroom countertops. Or it might be something like converting a back lawn area into a dog park, a children’s play area or a community garden. Once the projects are identified, you need to do a cost/benefit analysis. Basically, the question is what will be the cost to make a given improvement (or set of improvements) versus how much more in rent will that feature or those improvements command? Even if some level of capital expenditure is required, it might make sense to spend the money now and secure top rents today, so that you are well positioned to maximize your rental income moving forward. This is especially important given California’s statewide rent control mandate that places an annual percentage cap on increases Moving Forward — continued on page 44

Dear AAOC Members, The Santa Ana City Council has turned its back on rental-housing providers in the city. Rent control and just cause eviction will soon become the law of the land, with some city council members already calling for rent freezes until the laws take effect, as well as for the establishment of rent boards and rental registries. The Santa Ana rent control program is modeled after the programs that have plagued Santa Monica and San Francisco. Combined with the just cause eviction provisions, Santa Ana is headed toward having some of the most restrictive and punitive rental-housing regulations in California, far beyond what AB 1482 established. Among the key provisions of the ordinances are: • Rent increases capped at 3 percent or 80 percent of the change in the local Consumer Price Index (CPI), whichever is less within the city. • A limited and strict petition process for owners to get a higher rent increase • Just cause eviction protections that start on the 31st day of tenancy, rather than after 12 months • Prohibiting evictions of households with students during the school year • Requiring the District Attorney to prosecute an individual in order to evict for criminal activity • Mandating larger relocation assistance payments to households, exceeding current state requirements • Undetermined and unlimited fees on landlords to fund the program development, implementation, and enforcement. The Apartment Association of Orange County (AAOC) and its housing coalition partners are working to stop these anti-business, anti-property rights policies from being implemented, but we need your help. We need your financial assistance as we launch a referendum campaign that will force the Santa Ana City Council to either rescind the ordinances or place them on the ballot to allow Santa Ana voters to decide. Can AAOC count on you to contribute to its political action committee, to help us fight back against rent control and just cause evictions in Santa Ana? If we fail to stop it here, it’s just a matter of time before these policies spread to other cities in Orange County. Suggested minimum donation amounts are as follows: • Owners of up to 16 units — $1,500 + $50/unit • Owners of 17-to-50 units — $2,500 + $50/unit • Owners of 51 or more units & property management companies — $5,000 + $50/unit Thank you, in advance, for your thoughtful consideration and generous support.

Marketplace
Data for the Apartment Investor
Q2 Apartment Financials: Good News with an Asterisk The adjacent chart’s figures seem to make a compelling case that the Orange County multifamily market is healthy and strong. As they say, what’s not to like? Some highlights of the impressive second quarter 2021 apartment data for the OC: ✔ 3.84 cap rate — that’s a record low (meaning, highest ever value placed on county apartment net rental income); ✔ 16.07 Gross Rent Multiplier — not a record for a quarter (Q4 2018 produced a 17.56 GRM), but nonetheless a very robust valuation indicator; ✔ 6.1% rent growth year over year, a big upward bounce versus a year earlier when rents had actually decreased 0.4%; ✔ 69 apartment properties bought and sold in Q2 indicating a lively market for multifamily assets. Only 19 apartment deals closed in the same April-to-June period a year earlier as the initial shock of COVID throttled the entire US (and global) economy, and rental housing was caught up in the wash like so many other industries. But it so happens the average number of apartment sales in the county was only 43 per quarter in the three years before COVID (2017 through 2019), so the 69-deal second quarter genuinely reflects substantial current investor interest in acquiring OC multifamily
properties;
✔ $597 million in county apartment sales volume, more than six times the melancholy $90 million figure in Q2 2020; yes, we know that Q2 2020 was an oxygen deprived, COVID-stressed market, but the Q2 2021 gross sales number of $597 million was well ahead of average sales volume of $431 million per quarter during those same 2017 through 2019 prepandemic years, supporting the concept of a recovered, resilient multifamily marketplace; So, taken together, do these metrics authenticate a healthy, vibrant Orange County apartment marketplace? I think they do — but there’s a “but.” That’s because the game has changed recently and the assessment of risk is changing with it. Some wild cards, which I’ll get to shortly, have been added to the deck, making for additional potential volatility in financial outcomes and less certainty about returns on investment. If this premise is correct, it raises the question for apartment investors as to whether this might be a propitious time to cash in some of those apartment chips at today’s premium prices. That said, we recognize, of course, that markets are forever evolving, and investors will always be coping to some degree or another with an element of shifting sands and unknowns, BUT, present circumstances appear to have October 2021
BY NICK LIEBERMAN
grown even more unstable due to THREE macro factors discussed below (the aforementioned “wild cards”). Firstly, and most obviously, is COVID, which continues to blur the economic future. As of this writing (9-13-21), hospitalizations and deaths have spiked compared to COVID metrics of about six months ago when a general sense was developing across American society that we’d seen the worst of the virus and that the economy was poised to gradually transition back to normalcy and do so with a relatively soft landing. That calculus may be changing, however, as the virus doggedly infects the unvaccinated in particular, of which there are many (~ 80 million such Americans as of this writing). And what if new variants materialize? How do these public health variables affect the economy? Secondly, and just as obvious and “in your face-ish”, is climate change. The magnitude of the hurricanes, floods and wildfires witnessed by humanity the past year is changing hearts and minds. Yes, some holdouts still deny the climate change phenomena, but capital and markets can’t and won’t. Who knows which locations and which investments will be next to feel apparently inevitable outsized drubbings from mother nature within this “new normal” climate environment? Clearly, real estate values will be vulnerable in impacted locations.

Soft Story Seismic Retrofitting What is soft story seismic retrofitting & why/how should you get started?
What is Seismic Retrofitting?
Soft story seismic retrofitting is adding lateral load resisting components to buildings with a more stiff top story than bottom. Often these are buildings with “tuck-under” parking built before 1978, which is when the building code was changed for new construction in California. The new code included adding elements to take lateral forces from major earthquake events.
Benefits of voluntary retrofit?
No one has a crystal ball to see when or where the next major earthquake will strike. Buildings which withstood the Northridge earthquake are now another 25 years older. Your liability is greatly reduced in the unfortunate event of a building collapse which causes loss of life by being proactive. Based on a study completed by FEMA, the probability of collapse is reduced from 30% to 5% by completeing a soft story seismic retrofit on a building built before 1978.

Director’s Message — continued from 4 until the issue is ultimately resolved. Santa Ana voters previously opposed Proposition 10 (2018) and Proposition 21 (2020), as well as local signature gathering attempts trying to place a city rent control measure on the ballot. These previous outcomes give us confidence that our signature gathering efforts to qualify the referendum and have these new laws overturned will be successful if presented to the voters. Stopping rent control and just cause eviction in Santa Ana is critical. Failure
Moving Forward — continued from 24 after a property has been rented. Remember, too, as noted in my previous article, “How Long is Too Long?” (Apartment News Magazine — August 2021), income and expenses not only determine your cash flow, they also impact value. Today’s investors are taking a hard look at the fundamentals. They want to know that a property is generating or at least has the potential
Pulse — continued from 37 And thirdly is the divided U.S. society. Red versus blue, blue versus red. There’s an undeniable schism and it appears to be hardening among the citizenry. This makes for a less fluid, less harmonious economic ecosystem,
to do so will result in pro-rent control activists and their allies demanding that these policies be implemented in cities throughout Orange County. AAOC members must stand up and join the fight immediately.

to generate a return and they are no longer counting on big price escalations that generate all the profits at the time of sale. You have to do the math to decide what is right for you and your property. Maybe you do not see the value, or have the ability, to make the improvements needed to attain top-of-market rents. That conclusion, in and of itself, may be a signal that now is the time to start looking at other options. and thus more distraction to achieving productivity gains. The paradox for apartment owners is that while demand for rental housing will outpace supply for the foreseeable future, which on its face projects a rosy outlook for the sector, at the same time the pressing uncertainty of virus, climate

Refuel Electric Vehicle Solutions
Multi-family owners are going to observe a significant change at their properties over the next few years as more and more of their residents will be driving electric vehicles. Refuel Electric Vehicle Solutions (or REVS), a Houstonbased electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) startup founded by commercial real estate veteran, David Aaronson, offers turn-key solutions for deploying EV charging stations on multi-family properties.
Some of the primary services in REVS turn-key solution include: • Electrical capacity analysis of property to determine infrastructure necessary for EVCS deployment • Research and application management of grants & financial incentives to reduce costs • Coordinate & work with electrician and property management to install the station(s) • Post-installation management of the stations, including data collection & reporting requirements With the increasing adoption of consumer electric vehicles comes a centurial opportunity to generate a new stream of income for owners of commercial real estate portfolios. Charging stations generate revenue by reselling electricity to the user as well as generate additional income by reselling carbon credits in certain areas of the country. REVS’ data implies that EV charging stations can generate an accretive return by servicing only 4 electric vehicles (subject to the make-ready expenses of providing, or upgrading, the existing electrical infrastructure to supply electricity to the charging station). In addition, one dual station can serve up to 20 residents who own electric vehicles.
REVS currently offers 3 options to owners who want to deploy and/or host EV charging stations on their property: • REVS will sell, install, and manage the station(s) • REVS will own the station(s), many times at no expense to the owner, and provide a share of revenue to the property owner • REVS will lease equipment and install and manage the station(s) REVS mission is to work with property owners to develop this new income stream by effectively installing EV Charging Stations (i.e.“modern” gas stations) on existing properties. For more information, please visit the REVS website at www.refuelevs.com.
