forward-thinking. Now, Gen Z is not as concerned with recreation or downtime at the office, rather a financial investment in their future. However, stock options and a standard 401(k) won’t cut it when they are actually searching for “student loan assistance, tuition reimbursement, and maternity and paternity benefits.” This generation values a work-life balance and is highly optimistic for the future, so these types of benefits will not only attract but also encourage them to stay and take advantage of these opportunities.

feel if it’s a right fit, the offer should be made. “Nearly one in five Gen Zers expect a job offer one week from the initial phone screen. The majority expect an offer within two weeks.” Whether this expectation is realistic or not, companies that make an actionable change to speed up their hiring process will win top Gen Z talent.

This highly educated, highly diverse generation is craving a passion and dedication to diversity and inclusion from their employers. As a result, “86% of

s we head into the final days of 2022, I’d like to thank you for your continued support and ongoing efforts to provide housing to our community . The environment for housing providers continues to be challenging, and I know all too well that housing providers are struggling with inflation, labor shortages, and many of the challenges facing families and businesses today

Gen Z job seekers cite a company’s commitment to diversity as an important factor in deciding whether or not to accept an offer.” Here it is very important for a company to talk the talk and walk the walk. Diversity and inclusion cannot just be a phrase in your company’s mission statement or a committee that meets once a quarter. This dedication needs to be seen in initiatives like asking one’s pronoun preference, adequate accommodations for those who are differently-abled, policies to ensure fair and equal pay, etc.

What Real Estate Investors Want & How Property Managers Can Adapt

Whether a property management business has two or 2,000 investors, real estate investment portfolios are known for being difficult to manage . The property manager must account for all losses and returns, optimize investment strategies to maximize returns, justify calls for capital and accurately calculate all distributions Matters are only made more difficult by tricky tax-related structures and complex accounting

That’s hard enough, but today’s investors are also looking for real-time reports that they can access from anywhere, at any time . To do all this, property managers must adapt Attracting investors means having the right fundamentals, the right technology and even the right mindset going in Let’s look at what real estate investors want and how property managers can make it happen for them .

IN REAL ESTATE INVESTING, MONEY ISN’T EVERYTHING: IT’S THE ONLY THING

Once an investment is made in real estate, the property manager is in charge of it on a day-to-day basis . And when we look at the investment landscape, a lot of organizations are still managing portfolios in spreadsheets . Communications are done via email, and some organizations are still printing out information and sending it through the mail

This results in a lot of back and forth in the subscription agreement process (e .g ., getting signatures, capturing information), which is a problem because investors now expect instant access to information . They want checking their investment portfolio to be as easy as checking their stock portfolio (online, 24-hour access, mobile friendly, etc .) .

Without this level of transparency and real-time access to information, a property manager’s portfolio will not appear as a viable, trusted avenue for investors to

increase their wealth . If your plan isn’t maximizing investor returns, simplifying communications and offering transparency, you aren’t effectively attracting and retaining investors . And they will certainly not be lining up to work with a business that doesn’t offer the latest technological resources .

DON’T CHANGE WHAT INVESTORS DO, IMPROVE HOW THEY DO IT

At its core, real estate investing is the same as it’s always been The legal requirements, accounting, capital calls and distributions haven’t changed . What’s new is that investors want to be notified immediately (aka electronically) . Not just at the end of the month or during tax season It goes without saying that they also want immediate distributions in the form of electronic payments .

Investors want to share all this information with their advisors, employers, accountants, investment partners, etc . They want to be able to access historical information, contributions, transactions, notices they may need for other reporting or tax purposes, etc

To do that, investors need to be able to see operational details, meaning everything that’s happening at the property . They’re also going to look at the markets and what’s happening in the news because these developments impact their investments and potential risk exposure

TAKEAWAYS

Investors are more tech savvy than ever . Across the board, they are managing a variety of asset classes online through investor portals . Real estate investments have lagged a bit in this regard, but the expectation for better tech is there We know this because investors are asking for deeper insights about what’s happening to their assets at the operational level They want to understand their risk in the context of current events and market activity and see how their investments might be impacted .

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA RENTAL HOUSING ASSOCIATION - SCHRA.ORG 11

It’s our job, as software providers, to give you the tools that let investors be proactive and stay engaged with their portfolios in real time .

The bottom line is this: Investors want to collect a lot of information as quickly as possible They don’t want to see it in arrears . Their expectations are changing . In many ways, the bar is raised for transparency, communication and the speed with which everything happens .

LEGISLATIVE REGIONALUPDATE

Chula Vista Adopts Tenant Protection Ordinance

After many scheduled then rescheduled hearing dates, the Chula Vista City Council voted 3-1 to adopt a Tenant Protection Ordinance (TPO) on October 25 .

Mayor Mary Casillas Salas and Councilmembers Andrea Cardenas and Steve Padilla voted yes Councilmember Jill Galvez voted no while Chula Vista Mayoral Candidate and Councilmember John McCann was required to recuse himself from the vote .

The TPO adopted by the City Council places further restrictions on no-fault termination of tenancy and provides for stronger protections for renters In addition to Just Cause protections being effective at day one of tenancy, the ordinance will require rental owners/ manager to provide relocation assistance equivalent to 2-3 months of the U .S . Department of Housing and Urban Development Small Area Fair Market Rent for no-fault cause .

The ordinance expands the definition of substantial remodel requiring that improvements be a total of at least $40 per square foot and that the repairs necessitate a unit being vacant for at least 60 days .

The tenant being displaced also must be granted the first right of return when work on the unit has been completed and is ready to return to the rental market

Just Cause protections for the tenant take effect on the first day their tenancy. The ordinance includes revised anti-harassment and retaliation protections for the tenant and allows the city to take administrative and civil action against the owner or manager and even allows for criminal prosecution .

Over the course of the past year, SCRHA has participated in multiple meetings with stakeholders and Chula Vista City officials expressing strong opposition to the ordinance and deep concerns how the ordinance will affect rental properties and tenants. Despite the strong objections from the SCRHA and its coalition partners, the city council still moved forward with the vote. The ordinance takes effect in March 2023

SCRHA sincerely thanks members who attended the hearings to voice their opposition and submitted public comment . SCRHA will be creating resources and forms to help members navigate this complicated ordinance .

SAN DIEGO GAS & ELECTRIC CUSTOMERS TO SEE RATE INCREASE NEXT YEAR

Electricity Delivery rates will increase 8% for San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) residential customers beginning January 1, 2023 . Customers using natural gas for power will see their rates increase 5 8% starting next year .

SDG&E says the rate increase is necessary due in part to enhance wildfire safety, need to transition to using power from carbon free sources, to build more Electric Vehicle Charge Stations and add battery storage . SDG&E adds that customers are using more power than in previous years so it must continue expanding its infrastructure to meet increased consumption .

If SDG&E’s request is approved, the average residential customer will see their rate rise from 22 6 cents per kilowatt-hour to 24 .4 cents/kW hour, or about $15/ month . Last year, residential customers saw their delivery rate increase by 8% and natural gas users saw their rates increase by 20 .8% .

The rate increase is still waiting for final approval from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) . The increase of SDG&E rates will likely affect utility rates of customers belonging to San Diego Community Power and Clean Energy Alliance, both are Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) programs .

The Clean Energy Alliance (CEA) currently serves customers in Carlsbad, Del Mar and Solana Beach . CEA will soon be adding the cities of Escondido, San Marcos, Oceanside, and Vista . San Diego, Chula Vista, La Mesa, Encinitas, and Imperial Beach are served by San Diego Community Power (SDCP) . Starting next year, SDCP will serve National City and unincorporated San Diego County. Officials of both CCAs say it is too soon to tell how much rates will increase; officials under both CCAs are responsible for setting electricity rates, not SDG&E .

RIVERSIDE COUNTY EXTENDS MORATORIUM ON NEW SHORT-TERM RENTAL PERMITS IN TEMECULA WINE COUNTRY AND IDYLLWILD COMMUNITIES

The Riverside County Board of Supervisors voted to update its short-term vacation rental ordinance on October 18 for the County’s unincorporated areas, but supervisors held another hearing on October 25 to decide if the County should extend a current moratorium stopping the issuance of permits for new Short Term Vacation Rentals (STVR) and if supervisors should consider a standalone STVR ordinance specifically for the unincorporated areas of Temecula Wine County, Idyllwild, and surrounding mountain communities located in the County’s 3rd District

The County held multiple hearings earlier this year to update its STVR ordinance, including addressing the growth of short-term rentals in Temecula Wine Country and Idyllwild According to Riverside County, the county has seen a 575% increase in vacation rentals prompting the County Board of Supervisors to vote on updating its STVR ordinance and placing a 45-day moratorium on issuing new short-term rental permits on September 13

The County Board of Supervisors voted to adopt County Ordinance No . 927 in September and again in October The ordinance requires owners who operate STVRs in the unincorporated areas of Riverside County to have a valid permit and pay necessary fees and a 10% Transient Occupancy Tax on each visit The ordinance limits the number of days visitors can stay in the rental and limits the number of people that can stay on the property depending on its lot size . STVRs

are also required to notify nearby residents and post signs around the perimeter of the property indicating it is a short-term rental and have a responsible person to be on the premises . Properties would have to install “noise monitors” to ensure rentals are not emitting loud noises during the hours between 10:00pm and 7:00am . The county already has “Special Enforcement Teams” to investigate complaints STVRs caught violating the ordinance would be subject to fines and have their permits permanently But supervisors decided they would like more time to consider if a separate STVR ordinance is needed for Temecula Wine Country and the mountain communities

At the October 18 hearing, the County’s Transportation & Land Management Agency (TMLA) issued its report conducting a poll of county residents in the affected areas The poll indicated a substantial number of residents wanted to limit the number of rentals in those communities and place more restrictions on vacation rentals . Critics of the TMLA report argued the report was biased and warranted further study Supervisors decided to delay any action until October 25; if the Board of Supervisors takes no action to extend the moratorium, it would end on October 28 and effectively Ordinance No . 927 would apply to all unincorporated areas

On October 25, County Supervisors met to decide if they will extend the moratorium another 10 months on issuing new STVR permits in those communities . The County Board of Supervisors unanimously voted to extend the moratorium until September 2023 on issuing new permits STVRs with permits are not affected by the moratorium. County Supervisors did not indicate what another vacation rental ordinance for the 3rd Supervisorial District would like

UPDATE: PALM SPRINGS TO CONSIDER CAP ON SHORT-TERM RENTALS

The Palm Springs City Council on September 29 discussed a recommendation offered by the city’s Vacation Rental Work Group, an advisory group tasked with reviewing the city’s Short-Term Vacation Rental (STVR) ordinance . The group recommended that the city place a cap on the number of short-term vacation rentals in the city to 2,500 total units and limit the percentage number of STVRs to 10% in each neighborhood

While the City Council did not vote on the

recommendation, the council stated that it would be open to the proposal for future consideration . Thus, the hearing triggered hundreds of STVR applications being submitted, overwhelming the city department that processes them In turn, the city council called for a temporary urgency ordinance to place a moratorium on all new STVR permits until the council can see a new ordinance

On October 17, the city council voted 4-0 to approve the urgency ordinance placing a temporary moratorium halting applications for new short-term vacation rentals until the city council meets on November 29, and direct city staff to draft language on several ideas raised during the hearing

The city council on November 29 will discuss several proposed amendments to its STVR ordinance brought up during the October 17 hearing . Among the proposals is limiting the number of times a STVR can be rented out each year; the proposal will limit the number of visits between 24-36 times a year and create a “junior permit” category for owners who only want to lease out their home between 6 – 12 times a year The City council asked city staff not to include any proposals on setting caps, but it did comment that it could support a percentage cap of STVRs of 15% or 20% in each community except Homeowner Associations (HOAs) Another idea brought up during the hearing was creating a separate policy regulating houses used for special events that attract larger crowds of people . This article was published before the city council took any action on the policies .

Mixed Messages Key Theme of the 2022 Apartment Perspective

Southern California Rental Housing Association and CCIM hosted the 2022 Apartment Perspective on October 6, 2022 The panel discussion was held to provide insight into San Diego’s multifamily real estate market and featured Ray Major, Nathan Moeder, and Andrew Malick, as speakers and Robert Vallera as moderator .

The discussion began with an overview of present market trends that show a slowdown in transactions (what kind of transactions?) from 608 completed transactions in 2021 to 268 completed transactions in 2022, with a total of 400 completed transactions by the end of the year While transactions have slowed considerably, the price per square foot rose 20 1% between 2021 and 2022 .

San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) Chief Economist and Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Business Operations Ray Major was the first speaker Major stated that San Diego’s regional

economy is $250 billion annually and among the top 25 economies and is resilient due to its diversification with no single sector representing more than 16% of the economy .

While the region is seeing tremendous growth in biotech, information, and data sectors as Silicon Valley expands into the region, traditional sectors, such as construction and professional services are almost back to pre-pandemic levels while driving sectors, such as tourism and service, continue to lag due to employment shortages

One potential challenge is that the region has 100,000 fewer workers than available jobs with Chief Operating Officers (CEOs) finding it difficult to recruit or retain mid-level employees . While companies are attracted to the quality of San Diego’s workforce and operating expenses compared to Silicon Valley, they are showing that they will shrink their footprint or relocate operations if unable to fill vacancies.

Another challenge is San Diego’s housing affordability crisis driven by a lack of new housing units and increasing home prices and interest rates The San Diego region’s present housing deficit is approximately 70,000 units and the average of 7,000 to 10,000 new units annually is well below what the region needs to build to keep up with present demand . Meanwhile, home prices have increased 33% and interest rates have risen from 2 2% in 2020 to 6 11% in 2022 leading to affordability dropping from 18% in 2019 to 14% . Presently, a San Diego household would need an annual income of $208,000 to afford a medianpriced home in the region. Additionally, rising inflation is causing San Diegans to spend an additional $1,000 a month .

Based on these factors, SANDAG will continue its strategy to encourage more new housing in urbanized and urbanizing areas with a focus on homes close to job centers and transit hubs to reduce the need for automobiles .

The next speaker was Nathan Moeder, Senior Principal at London Moeder Group and teaches at UC San Diego and the University of San Diego His presentation focused on trends affecting the underwriting of multifamily projects and San Diego’s market .

Moeder expects that the multifamily market should remain a stable, long-term investment as underwriting for multifamily projects stayed active due to rent growth between 9% to 12% in the past 12 months . Multifamily development remains popular with investors seeing higher returns and appreciation with cap rates hovering between 5 to 5 .5% in the last 12 months and builders hope that cap rates hold around 6% in the next 12 months to attract investors

Additionally, Moeder scrutinized the San Diego region’s hyper focus on building studio and one-bedroom

units instead of larger units with multiple bedrooms . The San Diego region only permitted 63% of the units needed from the previous Regional Housing Needs Assessment and permits for multiple bedroom units have dropped by 6,000 units over the last several years Moeder is presently working with the City of San Diego to create incentive programs for building larger units and submitted a request to the California Department of Housing & Community Development to develop a statewide incentive program .

In contrast, Andrew Malick, Principal & Founder of Malick Infill Development, spoke on the importance of mixed-use, small-scale properties with amenities to attract single adults Malick noted that 40% of people ages 20 to 34 live with their parents and there are 760,000 people in that age group in the San Diego Region This highlights the statistic that 40% of single-family homes have residents who are renting a bedroom or in a home sharing arrangement and underscores the need for smaller units to accommodate smaller households of single adults or single-parent households To support this emerging market, Malick sees a move to smaller housing units as zoning policies discouraging smaller units and density are changing in favor of policies that promote dense, walkable communities .

While speakers disagreed on whether the region needed more larger or smaller housing units, they all agreed that another 2008-style meltdown would be avoided due to new banking and lending regulations and that any potential meltdown would likely be triggered by global or geopolitical factors .

At the close of the event, Vallera polled the audience if they see San Diego’s multifamily market as positive, negative, or the flat in the next 12 to 18 months. The audience responded believing the market will be flat or negative . Only time will tell .

Questions &Answers

Question: My tenant asked me to accept a payment from a third party for half of her rent . We have a policy not to take third party payments . Can I refuse?

Answer: No, you are required to accept third party payments provided that the third party payment also comes with a statement that says that the payment would not create a landlord tenant relationship with the third party .

Question: I gave a sixty-day notice of a rent increase, and my cousin says that is not good enough but it is the same notice I have always used . Why is it not good enough?

Answer: It depends on how much you have increased the rent If the total increase (including all increases over the last twelve months) is ten percent or less, then the notice required is thirty days If the total increase over the last twelve months is more than ten percent, the required notice increased to ninety-days plus five calendar days for mailing, if mailed within California .

Question: Am I within my legal rights to ignore oral notices and demand written thirty-day notice for a month-to-month lease termination?

Answer: Yes, California law requires termination notices to be in writing

Question: One of our tenants paid us $50 .00 per month rent less than what his lease required . We did not catch the mistake until after his third month He says he does not owe it because we waived our right to collect it when he paid his rent . Is he right?

Answer: Probably not . If your lease contained a non-waiver provision, it should be upheld in court . Even if your lease were silent on this issue, he would have to prove that you knowingly waived your right to receive full payment by accepting a lesser amount .

Question: Is there a clear definition of what constitutes “ordinary wear and tear”? My husband and I are spending day and night trying to clean and repair our once beautiful home we rented out and need to know how much to charge back to the residents .

Answer: There are not many legal guidelines on this issue so many judges use what they consider a common sense approach . We advise landlords to seek an opinion from the manufacturer of drapes, carpets, and appliances as to their expected lifetime assuming ordinary wear and tear If the item needs replacing before that time, you can use this as a guideline to determine the pro rata amount to charge back to the tenant

Question: One of my residents recently had her phone line repaired . The telephone company charged her $60 .00 . She did not notify us of the problem before ordering the repair . We could have made the repair ourselves at much less cost The tenant wants me to pay the bill . What do you think?

Answer: California law deems owners of rental property responsible for the inside wiring to the property However, tenants must first give landlords notice of a needed repair and provide a reasonable time to make the repair before undertaking a self-help action You shouldn’t have to pay more than what it would have cost for you to make the repair .

Question: Must three-day notices to pay rent or quit be served to all delinquent tenants at the same time? We manage a large apartment community and sometimes have a multiple of notices to serve

Answer: California law does not require that you serve threeday notices to all delinquent residents at the same time It is a good idea to do so, however, in order to avoid the appearance of favoritism or discriminatory conduct

Question: Our tenants have a one year lease They gave me a thirty-day notice of intent to vacate two months short of the one year lease expiration What should I do?

Answer: You should let them know in writing that a thirty-day notice has no legal effect on their obligations under the lease and they remain liable for the rent until the lease expires or the date you are able to relet the premises, (once they vacate you have to use due diligence to relet), whichever comes first .

Question: Our tenant’s children put a 6-inch hole in a plaster wall of the house they are renting The tenant readily admitted that the children “might have been punching the wall a little .” What are our legal options?

Answer: You can serve a three-day notice to perform conditions and covenants or quit to require the tenant to make repairs or to pay for the repairs . If they do not comply with the notice, you can proceed with an eviction, or alternatively, deduct repair costs from their security deposit .

Build “Community” in Your Apartment Building

It might not be something you can check for when you receive an apartment application, but in my experience, the best tenants are those who care about one another . If you own an apartment building and can manage to build community for residents living there, you benefit by bolstering their sense of fellowship in the neighborhood, and you gain benefits for your property by making the residents more likely to respect it

Community creates a home, and if your tenants feel at home instead of like they’re just passing through, they’ll take better care of their space A strong sense of connection will also ultimately make your property more desirable to renters, and thereby worthy of higher rent in the long run We’re all searching for community in one way or another . Creating it for the people who rent from you can make owning apartments a uniquely rewarding experience .

When I was a kid growing up in Woodland Hills, the apartment building my family lived in offered free bagels and cream cheese in a common area on the first Sunday morning of each month . I remember the thrill of excitement every time, itching to get up early and run down the hall to eat my freebie bagel I also remember the adults all talking and getting to know each other I couldn’t believe the building owners were willing to “spot us” breakfast like that every month I now know it’s a great example of the impact a small and relatively inexpensive gesture can have .

Perhaps nothing creates community more effectively than shared experiences . Of course, you can’t send your tenants backpacking across Europe together, but you can spring for bagels and cream cheese . Sometimes providing a shared experience is as simple as organizing a communal event, like a delivered meal, a potluck, or a happy hour . For instance, wine tasting is all the rage these days (who doesn’t love wine?) and setting up a community

tasting for residents only costs the price of a few bottles If you work with a property manager you trust, they’ll handle the organization and make sure it goes off without a hitch

I recommend creating a calendar of community events and distributing it to tenants This way, you can integrate annual events that are useful to your residents, like an electronics recycling day This particular example is usually well-received, and will keep your trash bins from becoming the final resting place for items that don’t belong there I’ve also seen tenants have a great time at a pre-trick-or-treat Halloween gathering for families, with a gift card prize for the best costume . One of our clients even sponsored a Thanksgiving dinner where landlord and tenants alike contributed to a feast that the whole building enjoyed together, and we heard nothing but glowing reviews from the tenants for weeks afterward . With online reputation mattering more than ever (especially on outlets like NextDoor), this is no small victory

In general, a building full of appreciative and friendly tenants who’ve built relationships there will translate to an easier experience as a property owner Building community at your rental properties applies the evergreen philosophy of property management— leading with care now could make all the difference later . When we organize events like these for our clients, I like to think that there might be a kid at one of them who’s in awe at the magic of free stuff, just like I was . You never know what will stay with a person

SIGHTS ON SAN DIEGO’S OMINOUS EARTHQUAKE FAULTS

Several spots in the region provide visual clues to the movement of the ground below

Optimum Seismic

Tucked away on Island Avenue between 14th and 15th streets stand a pair of 7-foot reflective spheres strategically placed on the Rose Canyon Fault system A viewfinder on one zeroes in on the other so that if any shift in the fault happens, the markings will no longer align .

Located in Fault Line Park, the “Fault Whisper” exhibit is surrounded by multi-story condos . The park itself sits directly on the fault line and is unsuitable for building .

There are several such places throughout San Diego, identifying the location of the city’s most dangerous earthquake threat Other locations include the cliffs in La Jolla, where dramatically tilted layers of sedimentary sandstone and mudstone clash starkly against the clean cut of a more uniform mudstone beside it . The contrast between the two is undeniable: like wearing striped pants with a swirling paisley top .

Similar land formations can be seen at Tecolote Park

just east of the Sea World Drive exit from Interstate 5 If you walk past the recreation center, and peer past the fence to the left of center field on the upper ballfield, you’ll see a sign posted that describes similar mismatched rock formations there .

These changes didn’t happen suddenly, but over millennia at a rate of just a few millimeters a year . Had it not been for this movement of the earth, San Diego today would have no Mt . Soledad, nor any of the other geological formations that make the city the beautiful spot it is today

The topography is stunning, but Rose Canyon has a darker side, too .

A 6 9-magnitude earthquake along the Rose Canyon fault in San Diego would devastate the city, according to the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute, which projected these losses from that scenario:

• 45% of all residential buildings damaged

• 23,000 residential units severely or completely damaged

• $38 billion in damage

• $5.2 billion in lost income

“While most newer buildings, particularly singlefamily residences, can be expected to survive the scenario earthquake with repairable damage, many larger and older buildings can be expected to be more severely damaged and potentially unsalvageable,” the EERI study said .

To the east of Rose Canyon, the Elsinore Fault skirts around Palomar Mountain, runs through the heart of Julian and continues down Banner Grade to the border . Normally creeping at a rate of 4 to 5 millimeters a year, this lesser known cousin to Rose Canyon produced a whopper of a quake in 1892 – a 7 3-magnitude temblor that moved the ground 17 or 18 feet A magnitude 3 5 quake striking on this same fault line near Julian in October was felt in a wide area, from Borrego Springs to Carlsbad Seismologists believe this fault could deliver another massive blow to San Diego like it did more than 100 years ago, given that some portions – most notably

the area near Julian – have not shown significant movement for more than a thousand years .

Going even farther east beyond the Elsinore Fault is another serious concern . The San Jacinto Fault zone, which merges with the San Andreas north of Los Angeles and extends all the way south to the Gulf of California, is assumed to have the capacity to produce an earthquake of between 6 5 and 7 5 magnitude .

Historical writings have recorded the violent thrusts of these faults when the land was mostly undeveloped . There were no multi-story condos in 1982, no sewer systems, no electric grid or gas lines, and no freeways Is this 1892 or 1982? Check with her .

Damage was minimal because there wasn’t much to be broken . Imagine if those quakes had happened in today’s skyscraper metropolis

CAN YOUR TENANT LEGALLY OWN AN ALLIGATOR AS AN EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMAL (ESA)?

When you think of an emotional support animal, what comes to mind? It would be fair to assume the first thought to enter one’s head would be a dog, if not some kind of bipedal mammal — and most likely not a reptilian carnivore with razor-sharp teeth

In enters WallyGator: a five-and-a-half foot, 70-pound TikTok famous alligator with over 72,600 followers on the platform owned by Philadelphia, Pennsylvania native Joie Henney While it is legal to own alligators in Philadelphia, that isn’t the case in many other states — nor is it likely that the majority of pet gators, if any, qualify as emotional support animals Or is it?

Since Wally’s uptick in popularity on the internet back in August, “alligators” as a related topic to the Google search query “emotional support animal” has seen a 300% increase in search frequency, most likely for the purposes of curious internet users seeing and reading about WallyGator for themselves However, with the increase in popularity of keeping various species of reptiles as house pets and the common need for emotional support animals, it isn’t beyond the realm of possibility that people with legitimate mental health conditions, unique cases of PTSD, or related conditions could be looking into obtaining a support gator of their own

As we’ve previously covered, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has provided guidance on how the Fair Housing Act (FHA) interfaces with the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) regarding emotional support animals . HUD classifies assistance animals into two different categories in order to distinguish their roles from one another: service animals (primarily dogs), and other trained animals that do work, perform tasks, and/or provide therapeutic emotional support for individuals with disabilities . Per HUD’s guidelines, because Wally is not a dog, he, therefore, cannot qualify as a service animal – so, how does HUD define Wally and his role, exactly?

HUD states if the service animal status is not readily apparent, to limit inquiries to two questions: “Is the animal required because of a disability?” and “What work or task has the animal been trained to perform?”, and if the answer to either question is no, then following

denial of service animal status under federal, HUD states that the animal can still qualify as a support animal or other assistance animal, depending on what needs to be accommodated .

In Wally’s case, Henney received approval to use him as a support animal after expressing to his doctor he did not want to be medicated for depression following the deaths of several family members and close friends in a short period of time, and more recently, his untimely cancer diagnosis . Even before rescuing and adopting Wally, Henney has worked with and rescued reptiles (particularly alligators) for over thirty years, and his vocation is one he is very passionate about – so it stands to reason his support animal of choice would be one he’s so accustomed to working with .

Because the ADA makes the same distinction that an emotional support animal would only be classified as such due to its mere presence providing comfort as opposed to employing any training to respond to a situation, HUD’s guidelines technically, but clearly grant Wally his status as a legitimate emotional support animal under federal law

While Wally’s status is protected in the eyes of the law, HUD also states that a housing provider can refuse a reasonable accommodation request for a support or assistance animal if said animal poses a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals or would result in substantial physical damage to the property of other which cannot be reduced or eliminated However, before denying such a request due to a lack of information, a housing provider is encouraged to engage in a “good-faith” conversation with the owner of the support animal to gather information about the animal and mitigate any potential misunderstandings regarding its purpose .

Luckily for most property owners, WallyGator is very much an anomaly, and most folks aren’t scrambling to obtain an emotional support gator of their very own, anyway . Henney himself calls Wally a “very special gator” (he’s trained Wally to understand commands and to keep his mouth closed around other people) and actively discourages others to adopt a pet alligator if they’re not actively predisposed to working with alligators, stating “if you don’t know what you’re doing, you will get bit”

The Importance of Business Plans When Buying Investment Real Estate

Ican’t believe that it is December of 2022 already! This month, I’ll talk about business plans for your investment properties . The importance of creating a business plan for investment real estate does not get much press . I have seen that some people who deal with real estate for a living do not even use them Whether you are a sophisticated real estate investor or only own one rental property, spending a little time on a business plan can save a lot of headaches in the future .

I have had this exact conversation with several real estate brokers over the past two decades:

Chris: “While reviewing this property, I noticed that the lease runs for 75 years, and has no rent increases . How could I expect to sell this property for a profit?”

Broker: “Real estate always goes up in value, right?”

Wrong! I have always reminded my investors that real estate’s value is tied to the income it produces . Rising income is needed to realize rising property values At the same time, flat income does not lead to stable value . In fact, due to the influence of

inflation, it leads to declining value over the years . Why buy real estate that will slowly decline in value over the next 50 years? People do every day . These investors do not mean to do that but, because they lack a business plan; that is exactly what happens .

WHAT IS THE WORST THAT CAN HAPPEN?

Perhaps you have heard the phrase “People do not plan to fail; they fail to plan .” This is exactly what happens often in real estate .

Our last financial crisis, about 14 years ago now, provided many examples: An investor bought a property for “a good price,” but loses it to the bank 2 years later . Often, this happens due to poor planning .

We have all heard of investors who bought single family homes with no money down and experienced a bad result They bought a new home in what was formerly a desert for a “low price” of $400,000, taking advantage of “great financing” at 1 5% annually With a $1,380 mortgage payment and $1,800 of monthly income, the investor figures he can’t lose . But what happens when the special interest rate ends? The investor may have used an aggressive assumption like “the property will appreciate at 30%

per year ” His plan was to sell at that point and “cash in . ”

We all know what happened with that investment . When the interest rate kicked up to 6 5%, the mortgage payment became $2,528 per month, and the property’s value declined to below $250,000 . The investor found that his “can’t lose investment” just did .

Any good business plan contains provisions for “what if” scenarios . What if rents do not rise as fast as I expect? What if I can’t refinance? What if I need to hold the property for several years longer than I expect? Had the investor mentioned above asked these questions in a well-thought-out business plan, he could have saved himself a lot of trouble .

HOW TO CONSTRUCT A BUSINESS PLAN

A business plan can be summarized as follows; Put on paper what you want to happen, what you think will happen, and some things that might happen Estimate the financial implications of these situations and write those numbers down Next, write down your estimated expenses . (Mortgage, utilities, insurance, etc ) Create a spreadsheet that can test these scenarios If you are “not a computer wizard,” this can be done on paper with a calculator .

When I started my real estate advisory business, I sat down to write a business plan This plan contained my goals, my likely scenario, and my worst-case scenario . I reviewed the numbers of each, adjusted the plan as necessary, and moved forward

I do this same thing when I buy real estate for myself or for my clients . We will estimate what rents and expenses will be, and then test that model with some “worst case scenarios I always want to be comfortable with that worst-case scenario before moving forward

REALISTIC FINANCIAL ESTIMATIONS ARE IMPORTANT

Assuming that an office building will go from 30% to 95% occupancy in 1 year or planning to raise rents 10% every year for 7 years may give you attractive numbers In the absence of a special circumstance, neither of these business plans are very realistic . One can torture numbers long enough to tell a great story; but that does not make it true . Aggressive assumptions are best described as the ones least likely to happen I prefer conservative business plans where things are nearly as likely to go better as they are to go worse than expected After all, unforeseen things will always happen . It is good to have room in your plan for such occurrences A conservative plan can absorb an unexpected repair bill, while that expense may kill the whole deal if your numbers are too aggressive

WHAT I LOOK FOR

When I evaluate a property, I will look at the “full picture” and use that to put together some projections . By evaluating the building itself, its’ location, the surrounding market and submarket along with the leases and tenants, I can put together some financial projections . If these projections look attractive, and pass several “stress tests,” I will move on to looking at the business plan – how the property will be managed, and when it may be sold for a profit

Every public company today has a business plan that identifies corporate goals and maps out a plan on how to get there . Doesn’t your real estate deserve a professional approach as well?

WHY MULTIFAMILY REAL ESTATE INCOME FUNDS HAVE DISTINCT BENEFITS FOR INVESTORS

The recent fluctuations in the United States stock market have many investors looking for more conservative and less volatile investments . That’s why more and more investors are attracted to Real Estate Income Funds .

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-of-

thousands 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 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 Please turn to page 46

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

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 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 inflationary 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 through depreciation, interest deductions, and the fund itself being able to 1031 exchange proceeds from the sale of one property into another without realizing capital gains .

● Low minimum investment amounts allow for portfolio diversification (typical minimum investment amounts are $25,000-$50,000)

● Professional real estate expertise, including acquisition, financing, property management and 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 .
