Marketing homework and positive investor response

A seller’s agent’s objective is to locate a buyer to acquire a property they market for sale. The moment a prospective buyer comes forward, the seller’s agent needs to be able to hand them marketing information relevant to the property’s value in a package which cohesively lays out:

  • the physical attributes and condition of the property;
  • the property’s location, zoning and uses permitted; and
  • the current, and if feasible, anticipated operating figures for the property.

While many individuals will likely respond to the agent’s marketing efforts, only a very few will earnestly consider acquiring the property beyond a fleeting moment glancing at information and data packaged and handed over. For these brief encounters, an agent can methodically increase the odds of retaining a buyer’s attention and receiving a proposal by giving the property life in a marketing package brimming with all the details on its:

  • current profit and loss (P&L) for operations;
  • physical condition; and
  • location.

An attractive package, unquestionably sufficient to fully inform a prudent investor, automatically triggers their setting a price they might value the property for acquisition. A marketing package is built by compiling property operating data in combination with other critical property disclosures. [See the RPI Income Property Brokerage (IPB) suite of forms]

Buyer reception to the marketing package?

Buyers come in two basic classifications:

  • investors and end users; or
  • speculators.

Buyers also tend to appear at different stages in a business cycle from boom to bust and back. Investors and end users purchase property for the income potential or rent to be saved over the long haul of an ownership. They generally surface at the end of recessions, the early part of a recovery when property owners and tenants appear to be stabilizing from the disruption of a recent recession. For investors and users, the marketing package with its income and expense analysis section is the evidence they need of the property’s inherent fundamentals which support a flow of net income in the future.

On the other hand, speculators acquire real estate for the profit it yields on a quick resale, tenants at current rents being a detriment. Speculators do not venture into the calculus of income, expenses, capitalization rates (cap rates), mortgage rates or tenant turnover to determine value.

When they do enter the market, they come in abundance and buy with near abandon, either:

  • at the bottom of the market in the depths of a recession (to fill their portfolio with assets on the cheap); or
  • in a boom when sales volume momentum is dramatically driving prices up (to ride a pricing tsunami for a quick flip without concern for any sort of valuation analysis).

Thus, with speculators, the package becomes the imperative line of defense for a seller’s agent against a speculator’s gamble and later loss on a resale. As the cause for their losses on a resale, they make claims of nondisclosure by the seller’s agent. As always, the last speculators in before sales volume gives out and prices tumble take losses, or they simply retain the property, adjust their business model and wait out the current downside in pricing.

Either way, the seller’s agent has an increase in the risk of claims compared to those associated with an investor who has made a studied purchase decision based on data the seller’s agent produced in a package replete with the agent’s due diligence results.

For investors, data presented in a marketing package is used to set the rate of return — the cap rate — justified based on the property fundamentals presented in the agent’s package. As always, a cap rate comprises the rate of consumer inflation foreseen by the investor, an annual risk-free and management-free profit margin on capital invested, plus a premium rate for risks of ownership unique to the property.

On setting a cap rate, the optimal price is quickly determined by dividing the net operating income (NOI) by the annual cap rate. Thus, the formula is simply:

NOI ÷ cap rate = price

The marketing package

It is well known that a buyer of income property needs data to act upon — no data, no action. However, far too many sellers’ agents tend to merely present their conclusions about the property’s operations, then move on to a friendly discussion about their listing, the marketplace and the current owner’s issues.

A good marketing package avoids all loose talk — it presents the property in a self-explanatory format that is quickly digested by the potential buyer. The package functions as a full up-front operating and property disclosure. When timely delivered, the package allows a buyer or buyer’s agent to quickly form their own conclusions on whether the property’s historical performance meets their standards and investment objectives. If so, the yield they need on this class of investment opportunity quickly sets the price they will be willing to pay.

Without operating data, the buyer is simply unable to set the price to be offered for a property — they are flying blind in the murky clouds of abstraction Popularly bandied figures, such as the gross rent multiplier (GRM),net income multiplier (NIM) or cap rate driven solely by the seller’s asking price are not particularly useful to attract buyers — insufficient for an analysis of property operations actually being experienced by the seller.

To attract and retain the attention of the an investor who will ultimately close on a purchase of an income property listing, the seller’s agent needs to marshal data and information on the property’s current income and expense, and the condition of the improvements, and place it in the hands of all prospective buyers.

Data critical to the investor’s analysis

Any talk on GRMs, NIMs and tax benefits are a stall, preventing prospective buyers from getting the operating figures and management information fundamental to setting a price that is reasonable for the property. Without this simple transparency, an asymmetry of information in a sales transaction exists which inevitably leads to a disagreement or dispute. Informed by their personal experience, the owner intimately knows about the operating costs of the property — but the buyer does not.

A buyer’s purchase of income property always relates to:

  • NOI;
  • the cap rate;
  • existing or new mortgage financing;
  • cash-on-cash margin(spendable income); and
  • after-tax returns.

To get to these figures calculated and properly presented, the seller’s agent, with the cooperation and help of the seller, engages in a little homework, completing their due diligence efforts and preparing marketing disclosures before they ever expose the property to possible buyers. Once gathered, the seller’s agent puts them into an effective format to make the operating figures immediately available to prospective buyers as part of the marketing package.

Delivering the data

The format and spreadsheets essential to the creation of a marketing package for income property exist in the RPI (Realty Publications, Inc.) Income Property Broker (IPB) suite of forms. To be assured no essential aspect for pricing is overlooked, the IPB package is a checklist providing the buyer with information reflecting the due diligence talent of the agent who prepared it. [See the RPI Income Property Brokerage (IPB) suite of forms]

IPB forms

The IPB package is comprised of several forms. Together, they present the fundamentals for buyer analysis of an income property. Preparation of the IPB package begins with the seller’s agent’s completion of the preliminary Work-Up Sheet Template, used to enter approximations of recurring amounts. Data entered in the Work-Up Sheet Template automatically fills in corresponding fields in all the IPB forms.

Entries on the Work-Up Sheet Template are estimates automatically overridden with more accurate figures when detailed data is entered or calculated in other forms.

Further, as the different IPB forms are filled out in detail, prior figures are automatically recalculated and updated. The Work-Up Sheet Template is for the agent’s approximations before getting into details. It is not intended to be a page included in the package handed to the owner or the buyer.

The multiple forms which make up the IPB package for buyer analysis include:

The Financial Summary page brings the critical data from all IPB forms together in a concise and easy to interpret summary. With it, the investor is presented with all the various financial calculations used to determine a property’s value in one singular location in the series.

Further, to inform owners and buyers about the significance of real estate terms used in the IPB forms, the seller’s agent includes the IPB’s Glossary of Terms in their final marketing package.

IPB Form 5: Annual Property Operating Data (APOD)

1 Scheduled Rental Income: This dollar amount is the total potential income from rents for all the property’s rentable space and units, forecast for one year forward as though the property were fully occupied. This amount is based on rent paid as scheduled on existing rental and lease agreements for occupied space and units, and market rental rates for vacancies. It is the agent’s duty to ascertain the accuracy and reliability of these rents, since accurate rental forecasts are necessary if multipliers and capitalization rates are to be meaningful tools for buyers to use when setting the value of the property. Scheduled Rental Income is calculated on IPB Form 7: Rent Roll.

1.1 Vacancies, Discounts and Non-Payments: This figure accounts for income lost due to the rate of vacancies, space and units currently let at a discount or with other monetary concessions, and non-payment of rent, and is necessary since the scheduled rental income figure will never actually be fully received. Often this amount is labeled a vacancy factor and is stated as a percentage of scheduled rents based on local market conditions.

1.2 Effective Rental Income: Line 1 minus 1.1. This subtotal is the amount of rent the property will actually generate during a one year period for the use and occupancy of the property, before including other income received for providing real estate related services.

1.3 Other Income: This amount represents any additional income received within a one year period for services provided to tenants or others. These services include such items as the rental of furnishings, utilities/common area maintenance (CAMs), cleaning services, coin operated machines, late payment charges, screening fees and other service fees which are not attributed to rents paid for use and occupancy of the property.

2 Gross Operating Income: Lines 1 through 1.3. This total is the bottom-line income figure giving the anticipated bankable income from all sources that the property operations can be expected to generate over a 12 month period, from which expenses are paid, mortgage payments are made and a profit is earned. Gross Operating Income is also sometimes called Gross Revenue (a bookkeeping term).

IPB Form 6: Income Tax Aspects

2.1 Prepaid Interest Accrued: Enter the pro rata amount of interest which will be prepaid on a new loan in the form of discounts, origination fees and PMI and accrue annually over the life of the loan.

3 Cost Basis on Acquisition: Enter the total cost of acquisition as comprised of the asking price and all other costs associated with a buyer’s acquisition of the property. This amount is equal to the Total Cost of Acquisition on IPB Form 4: Price and Terms.

3.1 % Value of Improvements: Enter the percentage figure the improvements represent as their portion of the cost basis on acquisition. Information on the value of improvements is entered on IPB Form 2: Property Improvements.

3.2 Depreciable Cost Basis: Enter the dollar amount representing the allocation of the cost basis to the depreciable improvements on the property based on the percentage figure given at section 2.1 above.

3.3 Cost Recovery Period (In Years): Check the 27.5, 39 or 40 year box to indicate the period of years the buyer will depreciate the property. 27.5 or 40 years apply to residential property. 39 or 40 years apply to nonresidential property.

3.4 Annual Depreciation Deduction Allowance: Enter the dollar amount representing one years’ allocation of the depreciable cost basis at 2.2 above based on the cost recovery period selected at section 2.3 above. The Depreciation Deduction Allowance is that portion of the NOI which is received by the property owner without taxation since it represents a return of the original investment, including the down payment, funding from purchase-assist loans and basis carried forward in a tax-deferred transaction.

4 Reportable Income (or Loss): The total reportable deductions from NOI is automatically calculated as the total of the interest accrued and paid (section 1), prepaid interest accrued (section 1.1) and the annual depreciation deduction allowance (section 2.4).

IPB Form 7: Rent Roll

Monthly Rental Income: For data and information based on current operating conditions (as indicated by the checked box above), enter the amount of rent paid by existing tenants for occupied units and space and the current market rent for vacant units and space. For data based on forecasts of anticipated future operations, enter the rents anticipated to be paid for all units and space one year forward. Rental income data must be accurate, since it is used to establish the property’s scheduled annual income and eventually the property’s value.

Column 1: Enter the number or letter identifying each unit or space located on the property.

Column 2: Enter the dollar amount paid as rent for each unit or space presently occupied by a tenant. If the unit or space is vacant, enter its fair market rental rate. For forecasts of rents to be received one year forward, enter the dollar amount of rent anticipated for each unit and space.

% Column: This column represents the amount of each listed expense as a percentage of the property’s scheduled rental income. Scheduled Rental Income is set forth on IPB Form 7: Rent Roll.

25 Total Operating Expense: The sum of lines 1-22. This dollar amount represents the total annual cost projected or anticipated to maintain and operate the property for one year.

26 Annual Inflation Adjustment: This dollar amount is the future annual increase anticipated for the property’s total operating expenses. This figure is used to project operating expense increases in years following the current one-year period, typically based on the current or anticipated rate of inflation.

 

IPB Form 9: Disclosures of Providers
