No crackdown
11
on property managers... yet
By Anne Gibson nzme
A Government minister has rejected taking any immediate action on property manager regulation, saying more work needs to be done on the issue and spelling out how the Government has better things to do. Kris Faafoi, Associate Housing Minister, rebuffed a call from 41 real estate entities and businesses to overhaul the rogue property management sector, saying there were important things to do. “In this term, the Government considers other priorities in the area of housing policy require more immediate attention,” he said in response to the rally led by the Real Estate Institute and its chief executive Bindi Norwell. While he welcomed REINZ’s push, he indicated that was flawed because not enough work had been done on what form regulation would take. “More detailed investigation around regulation of the property management sector could be useful, but it would not be feasible to try to advance proposed legislation before next year’s election that could be properly thought through and adequately consulted on. “This is not a simple issue and there

are differences of opinion on who should be covered under regulation. “It’s important that, if changes were to be made, that they are worked through carefully and with consultation,” he said. While he welcomed REINZ’s push, he indicated that was flawed because not enough work had been done on what form regulation would take. “More detailed investigation around regulation of the property management sector could be useful, but it would not be feasible to try to advance proposed legislation before next year’s election that could be properly thought through and adequately consulted on. “This is not a simple issue and there are differences of opinion on who should be covered under regulation. “It’s important that, if changes were to be made, that they are worked through carefully and with consultation,” he said. Recently, 40 organisations–including Barfoot & Thompson, Consumer, Harcourts and the Salvation Army–joined REINZ to lean on the Government. Norwell also released the names of businesses and organisations backing regulation and said the time was right for change.
“As planning is under way for the 2020 election, REINZ is today calling on the Government to formally review the need to regulate the property management industry, including public consultation, and to announce its recommendations for reform before the 2020 election,” her statement said. The sector has been dogged by issues lately, including major loss of funds from Harcourts after trouble with its youngest franchisee, Gurpreet Grewal whose operations included property management. His Preet & Co Real Estate had an estimated a $5.2m shortfall, including bank debt of more than $1m and $1.7m owed to Harcourts Group. Accounts for property manager Preet & Co Rentals estimated a $1.6m shortfall partly from $1.2m owed in bank debt and more than $150,000 owed to Harcourts Group. And last year, creditors were claiming $733,000 from a West Auckland property management business that previously traded under the Ray White banner. David Sharma’s Property Management Out West of Henderson has no assets yet unsecured creditors want $733,247, a liquidator reported then.

Housing Minister Megan Woods referred REINZ call to Faafoi. Despite Faafoi’s brush–off, Norwell expressed satisfaction with Faafoi’s response and played down his lack of enthusiasm for action before next year’s election. “We are not calling on advancing proposed legislation before next year’s election. We are calling on the Government to conduct a review with formal public consultation and ideally have a recommendation on what the Government proposes before the next election,” she said. She backs his call for more work to be done on the issue and provided new information on why the reform is needed. “We agree that it needs thorough consultation and consideration to determine the best approach for different segment, for example, property manager, landlords,” Norwell said. Green Party co-leader Marama Davidson, Renters United and Tenants Protection Association backed REINZ. David Pearse, Property Managers Institute president, said REINZ was acting in self-interest because many property managers were attached to licensed real estate divisions. People in those businesses were in REINZ, he said.

A new $170 million South Island industrial property fund has been launched, opening an offer to professional investors in June and closing the first round of that yesterday. FortHill Property takes its name from a landmark near Milton, about 40 minutes south of Dunedin and the company owns a collection of 11 industrial buildings in Christchurch and Dunedin. It is forecasting 6.5 per cent to 7 per cent annual returns, almost double trading bank term deposits, which its chiefs say is one of the reasons it was formed. The high returns are also an indicator of higher risk and one professional investor said he had examined the offer and had some issues. “The underlying assets are okay but it’s Christchurch property heavy. So there’s plenty of potential for new supply to compete with it. “The fees are full. The return assumes relatively high levels of gearing versus the listed property securities. The Stewart family are in control, so investors need to be comfortable with that.”
Nick Maier, the fund’s general manager, said the company would make further offers as it bought more properties. The first offer closed September 30, he said, but further offers were planned. Shares in the initial offer would be issued to investors around October 31, he said. FortHill Property, in the meantime, is wholly owned by solicitor Cameron Murphy of Invercargill, the Companies Office shows. Maier said that would change once the shares were issued. Wealthy South Island individuals were buying shares, he said, rather than Auckland-headquartered institutional investors and FortHill is not a syndicator but a company. All the properties in the fund were developed by Milton-headquartered builder and developer Calder Stewart Group. Its owners, the Stewart family, own 30 per of FortHill Property, Maier said. That is not the Stewart family of Christchurch who were involved in the plastics industry. Annual FortHill returns are forecast to be 6.5 per cent to 7 per cent, with dividends paid quarterly, he said. The weighted average lease term of the
11 buildings is 12.6 years. Often lease terms on investment offerings are nearer eight to 10 years. Chairman Karl Smith said the properties were rented to national or international tenants including Waste Management, Fletcher, Penske, AB Equipment, and Komatsu. FortHill plans to buy more properties in the next year. “We are pleased to have established FortHill Property with the first acquisitions from Calder Stewart and strong investor support. Our acquisition pipeline is looking excellent for 2020 and we expect to add new properties to the portfolio in the new year,” Smith said. Maier is the son of Sherry and Auckland businessman Sandy Maier, former chairman of South Canterbury Finance and appointed by the Government to try to save it. Nick Maier said he had left Auckland and moved to Christchurch to work for Calder Stewart and there was “quite some Mainland pride” in the new business. Smith said: “With bank rates at all-time lows, we particularly noticed investor appetite for strong returns and long–lease terms and expect further

interest from long–term investors.” Mainstream trading bank term deposit rates are mostly below 3 per cent. The professional investor said the full schedule of fees being charged by the manager were at the upper end, compared to what investors would pay in some other wholesale unlisted funds and listed real estate funds, “but probably below what people would have to pay if they tried to do this themselves”. Maier said professional advice was supplied by Chapman Tripp and PwC and the business was “middle of the road on management fees and structures”.
