New Program Rewards Referrals Grand Prize – Cruise for two plus $1,000 cash! After growing 27% in 2014, the UAA Board and membership Committee have set a goal to continue to grow in 2015 and have created a incentive program for anyone who refers a new member to the UAA.
"T
he more we grow, the more clout we have at Capitol Hill and with local governments so we can protect our industry," said 2014 UAA Board Chair Steve Randall. In addition, the more members to support the organization, the more resources we can provide. To increase our clout and services, the UAA Board has made membership growth one of the 4 goals of their strategic plan and the top goal for 2015. So the membership committee, led by Hal DeRoos, with For Rent Media Solutions, has come up with a membership referral program that will benefit members who refer a new member PLUS provide bonuses to the new member. Starting immediately, the UAA has put in place a incentive and reward program for anyone who refers a new member. • Anyone who refers a new member to the UAA receives a $25 certificate to use on any UAA service, event, etc
• The person you refer will also receive a $25 certificate they can use off anything, including first year dues • Every time an existing member refers a new member the existing member will be entered into a drawing for a free cabin on continued on page 4 Professional Publishing, Inc PO Box 30327 Portland, OR 97294-3327

80th Anniversary Party a Huge Success! By Taylor Smith Utah Apartment Association
O
n November 19th, the Utah Apartment Association celebrated its 80th Anniversary at the Little America Hotel. The event braised over $15.000 for the UAA PAC. Dinner was served around 7:00, and the program began with opening remarks by outgoing UAA Board Chair, Steve Randall. Afterwards a short documentary video about the history of the association was shown, along with a brief recognition of all of the former UAA presidents in attendance. The Association then honored two continued on page 5

Association Presents Pillar of the Industry Awards pt.1
t the 80th Anniversary Gala, the Utah Apartment Association presented two Pillar of the Industry Awards to volunteer leaders who have each given decades of service to the rental housing industry and the UAA. The awards were presented at the UAA 80th anniversary gala at the Little America Hotel. James Deans – Landlord Attorney, “served as a UAA board member for something like 30 years”, says Paul Smith, current UAA Executive Director. “For many years starting in the 70s, and through the 80s and 90s, Jim Deans was the UAA. He wrote the landlord guide the UAA used, most of its forms and did most of the training and education. He was the primary advocate for the UAA at the legislature”.

Speaking while receiving the award Jim told stories about his time serving the UAA and working in the industry over the years, including one about a time he was called up to the legislature “unprepared”. According to Jim, “I was in my office one day and since I didn’t have to go to court that day and the office was closed, I wasn’t dressed in a suit. I think I had on a Bahama shirt and shorts actually. The phone rang and it was a legislator that said he needed me to come up to the hill right then. So I had a long raincoat I put on and went up to defend the rental housing industry at the capitol. Before you knew it, I was on the floor of the legislature wearing this raincoat. After a while, one of the legislators said to me Jim, you know you can take that coat off. I said no, I was comfortable.
And so I took care of the issue that day in a Bahama shirt and shorts and nobody knew. continued on page 6

fire hazard as well. You would only be discriminating if you prohibited all holiday decorations, or if you were unreasonable about the ones you allowed in your units. However it may not be necessary to ban all of your tenants from having a live tree. Instead you might consider telling tenants who want a live tree to contact you to discuss the rules about how they will care for the tree and dispose of it after the holidays are over. Furthermore, if you decide to allow a live tree you might want to consider doing an inspection shortly after the holidays to see if there is any damage. If there is, then fix it immediately, deducting the cost of the repairs from the tenant’s security deposit, and tell them that they have to refill their deposit when they next pay rent in February. For tips to give to tenants who want a tree (or to use for yourself) you can go to the American Christmas Tree Association website at www.christmastreeassociation.org

Paul Smith proceeded to give the 2014 Annual Report, and the Government Affairs Committee gave a report on the 2015 Legislative Initiatives. Finally, Cheri Goss, the 2015 UAA Board Chair introduced herself and swore in the UAA Board and UAA Committee Members. What started out as a small meeting of concerned landlords in 1934 in the Newhouse Hotel (located right next to where the Little America now stands) has grown and blossomed into the association we know today. So, Happy Birthday to the UAA, and here’s hoping for many happy returns.

Board Chair’s Message: 5 Goals for My Time as Chair Cheri Goss Board Chair Utah Apartment Association As I look back over 80 years of board chairs who have served the UAA, I know a single board chair has only a brief time to influence the organization. I have set 5 goals for my time as chair: 1. Build a board culture of accountability, contribution and ownership by assigning areas of responsibility to every board member (33 volunteers this year) and tracking
progress to empower ownership of UAA’s mission. This organization is run by the board, and I want my board members to each have ownership and an area of accountability while on the board. 2. Make membership growth and outreach the #1 priority of UAA leadership and membership. We just received a national award for membership growth, I think the more we grow the better we can serve our industry. So I would ask each of you to help us grow this year by referring at least one new member each to the UAA this year. 3. Establish UAA as the go-to
place for data by developing and improving data and resources offered by UAA including market and contact information. We already have great publications and resources and I want us to continue to provide more. 4. Continue to provide Quality Education opportunities for apartment managers like Apartment AllStars, UPRO and Good Landlord training etc. We have so many great programs I hope you will take advantage of. 5. Create opportunities for members to have “fun” and release from the stress of business. I personally
love to have a good time and think this an important role of the association.
deadpans at the end “the reason I will always remember serving that particular notice is that the lady was completely stark naked at the time”. Another story that illustrates Jim’s humor concerns an apartment association board member that complained one year that he didn’t want to get another “plaque” for his office wall for being on the board. He com-
plained he already had six. So Jim, instead, presented him with a six foot toothbrush instead – so he’d be able to fight off all the “plaque” in his life. Thanks Jim for all you have done for the UAA and the rental housing industry for 30 years.
It is an honor to serve the UAA as Board Chair this year and I look forward to continuing the great tradition of 80 years of volunteer leadership, as the UAA makes a difference in our business and in the lives of people in Utah. Cheri Goss

I’m getting used to some new legs." One of the things Jim is known for is his dry humor. One of the favorite
stories he tells in classes and seminars is about when he had to serve a three day notice to one of his properties. When he knocked on the door, the lady of the house, who was a senior citizen, was sitting at the dinner table and told him to come in. So he walked over to the dinner table and served her the three day notice and left. When he tells that story, he

Director's Message: The Benefits of Membership
L. Paul Smith Executive Director, Utah Apartment Association You may have heard the following quote before: “Every man owes a part of his time to the business in which he is engaged. No man has the moral right to withhold his support from an organization that is striving to improve conditions within his sphere” – Theodore Roosevelt It is renewal season, and many of you have seen your renewal invoices in the mail. For big complexes that have previously budgeted them for January, this is a reminder. For small
owners, paying early means you can claim your dues on your 2014 taxes! Because we have a diverse membership population in the UAA many people have a variety of reasons for being members of the Association. Some join for the legislative efforts that the UAA provides and the support that is given proactively to protect owners, investors, and landlords. Others have joined for the UAA to become more involved and more engaged in the industry. The Utah Apartment Association was recently awarded the highest membership increase throughout the entire National Apartment Association. This was a HUGE honor for us, and we are very excited. But we have

found out that many people, big and small, do not know all of the benefits of membership. Do you remember why you joined? Here are just a few reasons why you should renew your membership or even re-instate it if it has lapsed. • Legislative Advocacy – Without the legislative advocacy we provide it would be much more expensive to operate your business. There would be MANY more regulations hindering your investments. • Education – The UAA is an invaluable tool in educating our industry. Even owners who are professionals benefit when the UAA educates others. We all benefit from the UAA education programs! • Landlord Guide, Forms, Industry Publications – Running alongside our education classes and events are our publications & forms. Keeping you educated and informed increases your revenue. As well has having up to date legal forms is necessary when operating a rental.
• Discounted Tenant Screening – It may not seem like a huge benefit to some. But everyone benefits from tenant screening. Choosing the correct tenant decreases your liability, damage, and loss. With our up to date screening services it saves you more than just the cost of the screening, it can save you thousands! • Staff Hotline – We are available to answer your questions whenever the office is open. • Online rent-pay and property management software – Available as a service to all members who would like to use it. This is especially useful for taking electronic rent payments. • Online videos – We have made a series of informational videos on topics of interest to landlords. We also posts video of our meetings and some events online for those who are not able to attend in person. • Events – From the annual Trade Show to the Golf Tournament ...continued on page 10

Apartment Communities: What’s in a Name? By Taylor Smith Utah Apartment Association
T
he Utah Apartment Association maintains the most comprehensive list of Apartment
Communities in the State as a part of our Membership Directory. The list has almost a thousand communities on it and represents more than 100,000 units in every corner of the state. It is hard work to maintain this
list, but it is a valuable service we provide to our members. One of the interesting things I noticed as I worked on compiling this list was the amount of thought and care that went into coming up with
the names for the Apartment communities. Not surprisingly names that evoke nature, comfort, community, and home are at the top of the list. Here are the top 10 most common words (other than “Apartments”) found in community names throughout the state: 1. Park (42) 2. Pointe (30) 3. Wood (29) 4. Village (27) 5. View (26) 6. Cove (20) 7. Gate (20) 8. Manor (20) 9. Ridge (20) 10. River (18) Oddly enough there is no “Park View Village at Wood Pointe” in Utah. So if you are looking for a name for your Apartment community, you are welcome!

Increase Your Profitability by Becoming Pet-Friendly By Ledy VanKavage
T
he majority of Americans view their pets as members of their family and as a result, Best Friends Animal Society receives hundreds of inquiries about petfriendly housing each year. Given the huge demand, one might think there would be enough pet-friendly housing for renters. However, a 2005 study entitled “Companion Animal Renters and Pet-Friendly Housing in the U.S.” indicates something quite different. Only about 9 percent of landlords have no restrictions on the type of pets tenants may own. A further look at the study’s statistics shows that landlords with pet restrictions are only hurting themselves because when they offer pet-friendly rentals their bottom-line profits increase. A 2011 analysis of the condominium market in the Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics found that pet-friendly landlords who place no restrictions on pet ownership currently enjoy an 11.6 percent rental premium over landlords who do not allow pets (after controlling for waterfront rentals, vacancies, age, bedrooms, and other factors). In addition to increased profits, the earlier study showed a variety of reasons why landlords should not restrict dog or cat ownership. Despite the more expensive rent, tenants with pets were found to stay significantly longer — by an average of 23 to 46 months — than tenants without pets. The vacancy rate for pet-friendly housing and the amount of money landlords had to spend on advertising was also significantly lower than “no pets allowed” rentals. Additionally, landlords spent less than half the usual amount of time marketing pet-friendly housing and received twice as many applicants for a vacant unit, allowing them to pick the cream of the crop in tenants. So why are the majority of landlords and property management companies missing out on this chance for increased profitability? Possibly it’s because of risk aversion hysteria,
exacerbated by a recent Maryland case, Tracey v. Solesky. In Solesky, the Maryland Court of Appeals held the owner and the landlord strictly liable for a bite from a “pit bull terrier.” However, this case is an aberration because Maryland has no strict liability statute making dog owners responsible for their pets. In contrast, Utah, like the majority of states, has a good strict liability statute which makes all dog owners, not their landlords, liable for dogs. Indeed, a Lexis-Nexis search revealed no Utah case law in which a landlord was held liable for a tenant’s dog. Therefore, the ramifications of Solesky are not an issue in the Beehive State. Luckily for Maryland landlords, legislators have vowed to overturn the ill-conceived, judicial activist decision next session. Size and Appearance Don’t Matter Some landlords choose to allow only small dogs, thinking that they are less likely to be aggressive. However, size doesn’t matter. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), breeds that were more aggressive toward people were small to medium-sized dogs, such as toy breeds and spaniels. A dog’s appearance also is irrelevant. There’s a strong breed stigma against pit-bull-type dogs, but controlled studies have not identified this breed group as disproportionately dangerous. Some companies — such as Stonesfair Properties, which has rental units in Arizona Montana and California — welcome all responsible dog owners and do not place any restrictions on size or breed. In 2011 Karisa Simmons, a Stonesfair Properties assistant manager, stated, “Not allowing pit bulls or other ‘restricted breeds’ is purely discriminatory and does not reflect any real reasoning. More damage to apartments, bite incidents, and noise complaints come to us through the breeds that most landlords welcome with open arms.” In addition, many dogs are mistakenly identified as “pit bulls” when they are not. DNA testing shows that it is extremely hard to visually identi-
fy the heritage of a mixed-breed dog. So while a mutt may look like a “pit bull” (which, by the way, isn’t one specific breed), the dog might really be a Labrador retriever or a whippet. The bottom line is that consideration of a dog’s behavior, not his size or breed, makes the most sense when applying rental restrictions. Problems and Solutions While some issues do arise for landlords offering pet-friendly rental housing, there are solutions, and the economic benefits of renting to people with pets usually outweigh any
problems. Here are a few of the common concerns landlords have regarding pets — and some solutions: Damage Solution: Have tenants pay a pet deposit. Noise Solution: Use the strategies for resolving noise issues involving children or stereos. Insurance coverage Solution: Many insurance companies, including Farmers Insurance and State Farm, do not discriminate ...continued on page 10
