Hero or Zero? The Future of Apartment Development & Investment Across Southern California

We are in unprecedented times. The state of the market 12 months ago seems like a bygone era. Just a short while ago, the biggest concern was rent control. That seems like a million years ago now. In 2020, we are faced with a global pandemic, social unrest and massive unemployment. And what’s more, California’s plans to reopen have been stymied for the time being. Developers are itching to get their pipelines restarted, while investors sit on the sidelines with piles of cash waiting to see how things will play out. How are these factors impacting the apartment industry across Southern California?

  • How have rental rates, rent payments and occupancy held up since March?
  • How is unemployment affecting the outlook for the apartment industry across SoCal?
  • Which cities across the region are suddenly more attractive in light of the pandemic?
  • Where is development restarting and what can we expect in light of reopenings?
  • How has the current situation affected construction costs, availability and timelines?
  • In what ways has the pandemic created new opportunities for distressed deals and projects?

Rent Control? Ah, Yes, Those Were the Good Ol’ Days: A Regulatory Update

Remember 2019 and how the legislature somehow got rent control passed despite it being shot down by the voters of California? Remember what a terrible time that seemed? Welcome to the dystopian future where public health crises, eviction moratoriums and rent strikes are the new normal. Join this special session to hear the latest on the regulatory environment in a mid-pandemic world and how this will likely play out once the public health crisis has passed. What are the governor, the state legislatures, and the local mayors and councils doing, and how will it affect your multifamily business? Specifically, what is on the ballot for this fall? Prop 10 2.0?

  • Understand what current regulations are in force and how they affect multifamily
  • Learn the status of the court system and how this will impact landlord-tenant cases
  • Get the latest on rent default strategies and how to handle disputes
  • Hear how rent control plays into the current situation and how/where it will go into effect

Elections, Viruses & Protests, Oh My!: Multifamily Investment, Finance Velocity & Deal Flow in a Topsy-Turvy World

In the spring, the pandemic had derailed most deals, with only the most motivated of sellers proceeding to close. Meanwhile, equity sources largely pulled back waiting to see how the pandemic, unemployment and reopenings will affect rent payments, rent levels and occupancy rates, among other key metrics. Now that we’ve seen that rent collections are much better than feared, buyers are re-entering the market, driving new deals forward, some at discounts and some at or above pre-COVID prices. Lenders as well are starting to re-engage at acceptable LTVs. What’s next for multifamily capital markets, and will there be special opportunities created by the pandemic? Join this special online panel to learn more about the state of capital markets, both debt and equity for multifamily deals across Southern California.

  • How have deal terms and underwriting changed due to the pandemic?
  • How are banks and other lenders adjusting their LTVs and covenants?
  • Which equity investors are actively investing in deals right now?
  • Which types of deals have fallen out of favor and which are on the rise?
  • What unique opportunities has the current situation created for equity investors?

The New Normal: Updated Strategies to Rethink the Rehab Game

Class C properties have been hit hardest by unemployment and non-payment of rent, while Class A properties have thus far been unscathed, although a prolonged period of economic depression could change that. The typical Value-Add strategy involves buying up B and C properties and upgrading them, if not to Class A, at least to a higher quality product that attracts higher paying tenants. How has the pandemic changed all that, and what is the outlook for the value-add rehab model?

  • How are the buyers finding and funding new deals in the SoCal today?
  • In what ways has the risk profile of acquiring older properties changed?
  • How has the pandemic affected value-add construction projects?
  • Will we see a wave of distressed selling and, if so, how big will it be?
  • How has the crisis changed the rehab business plan? Are social amenities now less valued?
  • Which technologies suddenly make a lot more sense to incorporate into refurbished properties?

  • Mike Rovner, CEO, Mike Rovner Construction

Panelists:

  • Marshall Boyd, Chief Executive Officer, Interstate Equities
