Speaker Slides - RealInsight New York Multifamily SummitRyan Slack
This document discusses emerging trends in multifamily housing and innovations for the next housing cycle. It notes that amenities like larger fitness areas, lounges, and pet-friendly policies will be important. Technologies like smart home devices, property management systems, and sustainability features like co-generation and electric vehicle charging will also be valuable. Maintaining affordability through product type and neighborhood will be key. The document also summarizes perspectives from industry professionals on capital raising challenges but continued demand, pursuing off-market and distressed deals, structured returns, and partnering with sponsors.
Afternoon Keynote - Lindsay Eichner Kraus & Bruce EichnerRyan Slack
The document describes a new building project located at 45 East 22nd Street in New York City. It will be the tallest building in the Flatiron District at 777 feet tall and 65 stories, transforming the downtown skyline. The glass tower was designed by Kohn Peterson Fox and will contain 82 apartments and 230,000 square feet of space.
Increasing NOI & NAV with Smart Building Technologies & Intelligent DataRyan Slack
This document outlines various energy efficiency and sustainability projects that can be implemented at a multifamily property, along with their expected financial impacts. It lists 5 projects: 1) real-time energy monitoring and training, 2) LED lighting upgrades, 3) wireless controls, 4) combined heat and power, and 5) solar/battery storage. For each project it provides the estimated net operating income increase, capital expenditure, net asset value increase, and payback period. Implementing these projects could result in annual energy savings of $250,000 and increase the property's net asset value by $3.5 million.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise boosts blood flow, releases endorphins, and promotes changes in the brain which help enhance one's emotional well-being and mental clarity.
The document appears to be a presentation on the state of the New York City real estate market. It includes charts and data on the number of properties sold, total dollar volume, average price per square foot, and capitalization rates for Manhattan and the outer boroughs. There are also sections analyzing data for multifamily buildings as a whole, as well as broken down into elevator and walk-up buildings specifically.
Special Presentation - Christopher Ballard of UBER Southern CaliforniaRyan Slack
Uber is a ridesharing company that aims to provide reliable transportation everywhere for everyone. It operates in over 500 cities worldwide. Ridesharing is growing rapidly and is projected to account for 25% of all vehicle miles by 2030. Uber has partnered with various real estate developers, retailers, and municipalities to provide transportation solutions and promote their businesses. It sees continued growth and innovation in connecting communities through ridesharing.
Marcus & Millichap / IPA Multifamily Forum Southern California - Speaker SlidesRyan Slack
This document provides a summary of a presentation on the future of parking and transportation. It discusses trends showing that parking takes up a large amount of land in Los Angeles but cars are parked 96% of the time. Self-driving cars and shared mobility options may reduce parking needs. Studies show that actual parking demand at transit-oriented developments is lower than estimates. Shared mobility reduces private car ownership. Automated parking structures can use 40% less space and have other benefits. The presentation then discusses an adaptive garage concept and concludes with shared mobility trends.
National Multifamily Housing Council Presentation - Matthew Berger of NMHC Ryan Slack
The document discusses the timing and priorities for tax reform. It notes that passing a bill by the end of 2017 would be aggressive and Secretary Mnuchin sees August as not realistic. Key multifamily tax priorities include protecting flow-through entities and preserving deductions. Proposals from Republicans and Trump would lower rates but impact affordable housing without changes to protect programs like LIHTC. The outcomes of tax reform are unclear and will depend on issues of revenue neutrality, sunset provisions, and business provisions.
Marcus & Millichap / IPA Multifamily Forum Houston - Speaker SlidesRyan Slack
This document contains summaries of recent real estate financing deals, property tax rates in Houston and other Texas cities, strategies for boosting net operating income, and an overview of an opportunity to acquire and renovate the City West Apartments in Houston. It discusses the value-add opportunity at City West through renovations and operational improvements to increase occupancy and rents. The acquisition is seen as providing a 21.7% 5-year internal rate of return through revenue growth, expense reductions, and unit renovations to command higher rents.
NAIOP Golden Shovel Competition - Travis Duncan of Stanford UniversityRyan Slack
The Cardstone Group is proposing converting an existing industrial property into a makerspace through a phased redevelopment approach. They analyzed the property's highest and best use and determined a makerspace would increase the net present value by 25% to $124 million. Their proposal includes phasing 50% of the net leasable area to makerspace tenants by 2022, with financial projections showing increased net operating income and positive cash flows through 2030. The proposal aims to earn city support by diversifying jobs, reducing truck traffic, and improving public spaces, while an evergreen provision in the memorandum of understanding helps mitigate risk.
2016 NAIOP Golden Shovel Challenge - Jeffrey Bean of UC BerkeleyRyan Slack
The document discusses a proposed mixed-use development called Centennial Village on a 20-acre site in South San Francisco. The development would include 549 residential units and 351,000 square feet of office space. It provides details on the development timeline, revenue assumptions, costs, and projected returns. The proposed development aims to maximize the value of the site while maintaining existing relationships and features transit and trail access with the goal of creating a model for transit-oriented mixed-use development in the area.
Cal-Stanford Development Showdown - Dennis Williams of NorthmarqRyan Slack
The annual Real Estate Challenge is a competition between UC Berkeley and Stanford University that has been held since 1990. Over 40 schools now participate in similar challenges nationwide. The Challenge involves student teams developing proposals to redevelop a sponsor site based on criteria like the development strategy, meeting city plans, creativity, and presentations evaluated by a jury of industry professionals. Since its inception, Berkeley has won 15 challenges against Stanford's 12 wins. Many past challenge sites have seen successful redevelopment following the student proposals.
Uncertainty and Fundamentals Driving Capital Decisions - Keynote David Bitner...Ryan Slack
The document provides a summary of the U.S. economic and commercial real estate outlook from Cushman & Wakefield for April 2017. It discusses how 2017 started slowly with rising capitalization rates and decelerating price returns. U.S. investment sales volumes in the first quarter of 2017 were down 42% and 18% compared to the first quarter of 2016 for single asset and portfolio deals respectively. The summary explores reasons for the slow start to the year including general uncertainty in the economy, real estate cycle, and their interplay with politics.
3rd annual EisnerAmper Real Estate Private Equity Summit West Speaker SlidesRyan Slack
