This summer, the City of Phoenix demonstrated their commitment to taking a more aggressive approach to dealing with slum properties. The City Council Housing, Planning, and Development subcommittee re-instated the slum-property designa-tion and the appeals panel that will strengthen the enforcement process on rental properties to protect rent-ers and neighborhoods.

Phoenix Councilmen Tom Simplot (District 4) and Daniel Valenzuela (District 5), worked with leadership and city staff to strengthen the en-forcement of these laws. As part of this initiative, they brought back the “slum property” designation and the appeals panel.

During the economic downturn, the City faced a number of budget cuts and the neighborhood services teams focused only on the most criti-cal situations. Recently, additional resources were allocated to allow the city offices to focus on repeat offend-ers, track their progress in making necessary updates and repairs, and file criminal charges when necessary by collaborating with the City Pros-ecutor’s Office.

By AMA and NAAEI

In June, during the National Apartment Association Education Institute (NAAEI) conference in San Diego, Pam Shelton, a principal of Allison-Shelton Real Estate Services and Robert Hicks, Chariman of the Board of the Arizona Multihousing Association (AMA), accepted the Anthony V. Pusateri Apartment Ca-reer Promotion Award on behalf of the AMA.

As the summer winds down, our AMA teams have been busy working on programs for the fall, and on initia-tives for Big Hearts for Little Hands. Tucson and Phoenix have hosted spe-cial events to bring together members to network and support families in need through these partnerships with local nonprofi t agencies. Our Family (formerly New Beginnings) in Tucson and UMOM in Phoenix receive thou-sands of dollars and in kind contribu-tions as a result of your generosity.

Part of the mission of AMA’s Big Hearts for Little Hands is support families in need with housing oppor-tunities. Both of these nonprofi ts help transition families into permanent housing following a diffi cult time in their lives. In addition to the housing efforts, we support reading programs through our work with Southwest Human Development and the Rais-ing a Reader campaigns held in our

apartment communities. Innovative programs like this, deployed in part-nership with great operators and as-sociate members, continue to make a major difference in our communities. I urge you to get your teams involved with these programs. They are a tes-tament to the impact that we have working together in our communi-ties.

Here at the AMA, we are also get-ting ready for the upcoming Perspec-tives and Projections conference that will be held at the Convention Center in late September. Business leaders and investors should take advantage of this half day program that brings together leading experts on the hous-ing market, capital markets and the regulatory environment. These folks are focused on the apartment indus-try only for this event, making this economic outlook of particular im-portance to our members.

Your senior leaders should under-stand the market pressures and the construction environment that will

make our market more competitive. The panel of East Valley Mayors – from Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert and Scottsdale – will give us some in-sights into what they see as the op-portunities for future development in their communities. The East Valley, one of the tightest rental markets in the region, is emerging as the hottest construction market for rentals. This panel will give our members insights into what city offi cials want to see in the future in their communities and what they believe the impact of addi-tional multifamily communities will be in their communities.

Elliott Pollack, Arizona’s most re-nowned economist, will offer his take on Arizona’s economic future and give particular attention to the apart-ment market and its future. His pre-sentation, always a highlight of this conference, will be during the lunch program. Be sure to get your tickets for this popular event soon! See you there. q

huge success this event was for the Tucson BH4LH committee efforts with more than 800 tickets plus prod-ucts and raffl e ticket sales resulting in $6,552 in funds raised. Tucson AMA members, their families and friends and the Tucson community enjoyed a night at the ballpark and gave a little back to the community as well!

Another event held earlier this year, 1st Annual 5K Fun Run/Walk (March 23, 2013), netted almost $5,000 and will continue to be an annual event for the Tucson AMe, Inc. future cam-paigns. Both of these events helped inch the committee much closer to its goal of collecting $30,000 in 2013.

The AMe, Inc.-Tucson Big Hearts for Little Hands Closing Party, which will be held at The Hut in Tucson on Friday, November 22, 2013, is closing in fast and the committee is confi dent that it can reach the 2013 goal! During the next few months, onsite efforts from the 109 partici-pating AMA Tucson multi-housing communities will be critical to reach this goal. In the past, the committee’s fund raising success has relied heav-ily on proceeds from Yard Sales, Bake Sales, Community Events and other creative fund raising activities. The Tucson Big Hearts for Little Hands committee continues to rely on these

events to meet the lofty 2013 goal. Several properties have already

held events for BH4LH including Altamira (NFI); Carondelet (Scotia); Casa Bella (MEB); Coronado Villas (Prime); Desert Shadows (Scotia); Lantana (NFI); MEB Corporate Offi ce; NFI Corporate Offi ce; Pusch Ridge (NFI); Pueblo Villas (Weidner); Sand-stone Ridge (NFI); Somerset Place (NFI); Stonybrook (Scotia); Sundown Village (HSL); The Edison (Scotia); The Woods (NFI).

Due to all of the efforts of energetic and dedicated members, the AMe, Inc.- Tucson BH4LH committee’s 2013 deposits are currently estimated

to total more than $20,200! More than ever, the Tucson BH4LH committee wants to FINISH STRONG and looks forward to recognizing those proper-ties and companies who are work-ing diligently on events to help our cause. As Co-Chairs of the Tucson Big Hearts for Little Hands commit-tee, we want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for supporting all of these events and look forward to meeting our goal by the end of No-vember! q

two day overview of what it takes to become a successful leasing con-sultant or apartment maintenance technician.

In her role as the Education Chair, Pam Shelton recruited leading indus-try experts to teach some of the best practices of the industry and answer questions about multifamily housing, including Jim Kowalski of Kowalski Construction, Mark Zinman of Wil-liams, Zinman and Parkham, PLC, Alison Bradley of Allison-Shelton Real Estate Services, Inc. and Adam Greco of Burns Pest Elimination.

Anthony V. Pusateri Apartment Career Promotion Award was in-stituted in 2011 and is annually be-

stowed on the association, company or individual who has made the greatest impact promoting apart-ment careers. This award was named in honor of the late Anthony V. Pusa-teri, CAPS, CPM, a past president of the National Apartment Association, a founder of NAAEI and member of the Institute of Real Estate Manage-ment Faculty. Pusateri had the vision that NAAEI would lead the apart-ment industry in the promotion of apartment careers and the creation of new pipelines of skilled talent and worked diligently to make it a real-ity. q

be more serious offenses that create a danger to the health and safety of the residents of the property or to the greater public.

Years ago, the AMA supported the original legislation allowing mu-nicipalities to designate a residential rental property as “slum property.” In August 1999, the state enacted Arizona Revised Statute (ARS) §33-1901 to empower municipalities to designate residential rental property as “slum property” for a deteriorated property in a state of disrepair and a danger to the health or safety of the public.

This designation gave the munici-pality some leverage to enforce health and safety codes and protected resi-

dents and the larger neighborhood from owners and/or property man-agers who were not in compliance with the law.

The newly reinstated 12 member panel consists of professional real estate experts and local citizens who will convene when appeals are requested by owners whose rent-als have been designated as slum properties. The panel then reviews cases and evidence and makes their recommendation regarding the property’s status. Among those selected for the review panel are Jake Hinman of Capitol Consulting and Nedra Halley from Dunlap & Magee. q

Be sure to bring your team to this year’s exciting Perspectives and Pro-jections Conference. This premier real estate event focuses on the mul-tifamily industry and a look ahead at the market.

Michael Bidwill, President of the Arizona Cardinals, will open the morning as the keynote speaker fol-lowed by a panel of brokers and cap-ital market experts.

Grady Gammage, Jr. will moderate this panel as they look at the global capital markets and how economic drivers affect the real estate markets. Panelists will include: Tyler Ander-son, CBRE; Jack Hannum, Transwest-ern; John Cunningham, Jones, Lang & LaSalle; and Steve Gebing, Marcus & Millichap

During the “Hottest Markets in the Valley” panel, four East Valley mayors will discuss current apart-

ment projects under way. The flurry of new-construction activity repre-sents a complete turnaround from a year ago, when virtually no new apartments were being built. The vast majority of apartment building activity is happening inside Loop 101, and we will have the East Valley leadership to talk about it.

AMA President and Phoenix Councilman Tom Simplot will mod-erate the panel of mayors: Tempe Mayor Mark Mitchell; Gilbert Mayor John Lewis; , Chandler Mayor Jay Tibshraeny; and Scottsdale Mayor Jim Lane.

Renowned economist Elliott D. Pollack will be the luncheon speaker. His popular review of the local and state real estate market will offer key insights into the future of our mar-kets and employment trends. q

By Ike Tippetts, Rainforest Plumbing & Air

you pay attention to business news, you’ll undoubtedly hear

about brands and branding on a regular basis – especially in regards to “build-ing a brand,” “the value of a brand,” or even “damage to a brand.” Usually, though, these kinds of ideas are being applied to a major corporation, so it might seem fair to assume that brand-ing is something that only the biggest organizations have to worry about.

The reality, however, is that every business and individual should be aware of what branding is, and how it works, because it can be such a power-ful concept.

Although there are a lot of different ways that branding is defi ned, it really comes down to this: a brand is just the sum of the way people feel about you and the impressions you make. It in-cludes your visual identity, with things like logos, color schemes, and market-ing messages. But at same time, it also encompasses your prices, the other businesses you work with, and even your reputation for customer care and service.

When you put all of these together, you have an idea of how people think about you, or at least how you’re try-ing to get them to think about you. That might be important to huge companies with massive advertising budgets, but it can be even more important to small businesses, or even individuals, who need to make an impression on the peo-ple around them in their local market or community.

To get a bit deeper into the reasons that branding matters, consider a few of the great things that happen when you have strong branding efforts in place:

Great brands tell a long story in a fraction of a second. Stop and think about your favorite businesses or prod-ucts, and then think about the logos or advertising jingles you associate with them. If you love something like Star-bucks, Cadbury’s Chocolate, or Coca-Cola (as many people do), then you already understand how just seeing the right graphic can make you hungry or thirsty, and create an instant uncon-scious impression in your mind. That’s the power of a strong brand.

People like to work with brands they know and trust. Lots of research has gone into the reasons why custom-ers prefer established brands, but the results basically come down to trust.

When the company has built a brand that becomes associated with a certain type of product or service, it’s easier for you to choose them because you know what to expect when you make that choice. In other words, people like to feel comfortable and unthreatened, and working with established brands allows them to do that.

Strong branding helps you gain recommendations. When someone is looking for a product or service rec-ommendation, they often turn to a friend, colleague, or family member fi rst. Branding heavily infl uences those recommendations, since a person is far more likely to recall a strong brand off the top of their head instead of a weaker one. That applies to big companies and products, of course, but also to the peo-ple in their lives – personal branding is incredibly important for referrals and other suggestions.

Branding helps your marketing, but it also does a lot more. Although a lot of the discussion about branding fo-cuses on marketing, and fi nding new customers, the reality is that a great brand helps you in a lot of different ways. For instance, your branding ef-forts could help you secure a new loan, create relationships with vendors, gen-erate interest from colleagues, or even

create employment and partnership opportunities for your team. Each of these is possible because good brand-ing builds trust and familiarity, which paves the way for stronger business re-lationships.

Whether you’re thinking about the apartment business, or even just your own personal career, paying atten-tion to your brand is a good idea. You might not have a huge, multi-million-dollar corporate budget to work with, but your credibility, your reputation, and the impressions you make on your customers and colleagues are every bit as important to your success as they would be to the biggest company. q

hank you to all who vol-untarily participated in the

Arizona Department of Real Estate (“ADRE”) Broker Audit Survey. The results will enhance the Department’s mission of protecting the Arizona public and ensuring exceptional cus-tomer service while identifying ways to support real estate professionals like you.

After several weeks, the Depart-ment has concluded its aggregation of the results from the voluntary sur-vey. As promised, no confi dential in-formation will be found on the results document. Nearly 5,300 Designated Brokers and Self Employed Brokers participated either through a link re-ceived via E-mail or by a hard copy mailing. This participation makes up about 73% of the DBs and SEs in Ari-zona. You can view the survey results at http://www.azre.gov/NewsAn-dAlerts/Documents/Voluntary_Bro-

ker_Audit_Survey_Results.pdf.I remained optimistic through-

out this exercise because I believed it would not only benefi t the De-partment in answering inquiries in areas that lacked direction, but also for you as a real estate professional to see the activity that is effecting your industry. The survey provided only a small snapshot, but hopefully it will be effective in leading a pro-ductive dialogue and collaborative effort that will ultimately lead to positive reforms. Unfortunately, the Department received some problem-atic responses and could not provide answers on some of the survey ques-tions, but overall I view this experi-ence as a great success.

Please take a few moments and view the survey results found here. The document is also made available on the Department’s homepage.

The real estate industry remains an essential element to the economic sta-bility of Arizona. Your commitment to excellence in the fi eld is recognized and appreciated. q

Top 10 Apartment Resident Customer Satisfaction Complaints

A leading marketing research fi rm exclusively serving the multifamily industry, J Turner Research, recently announced a ranking of the top 10 apartment resident complaints, as revealed in an analysis of 10,000 cus-tomer satisfaction surveys completed over the past two years at communi-ties nationwide.

According to the analysis, apart-ment residents are most likely to complain about rental rates more than any other issue. In fact, rent rates were more than twice as likely to be mentioned compared to concerns over pet waste, which perennially rank high in renter dissatisfaction. Additionally, rent prices were almost three times more likely to be high-lighted by disgruntled residents than noise, which did not even crack the top 10:

Top 10 Multifamily Apartment Resident Complaints: 1) Rental rates2) Poor grounds/common area up-

keep3) Disorganized staff/lack of commu-

nication with staff

4) Quality of response to maintenance requests

5) Overall customer service of man-agement staff

6) Quality of parking/parking avail-ability

7) Concerns over security/safety/ lighting

8) Lack of upgraded amenities

9) Pets not on leash/poor pet waste re-moval

10) General lack of preventative maintenance

Renter com-plaints regarding rates could signify a broader softening in rent fundamentals, which have enjoyed a relatively steady rebound since the beginning of U.S. economic recovery from the Great Recession. Following rental rates, residents are also most likely to be concerned with on-site customer service from both management and maintenance staffs, an issue mentioned in three of the top

fi ve complaints. “Apartment residents remain

concerned with a broad range of cus-tomer satisfaction issues but far and away the immediate opportunity to improve customer service and resi-dent satisfaction levels is by address-

ing dissatisfaction with onsite staff re-sponses to resident concerns,” said J Turner Research president Joseph Batdorf.” J Turner Research tracked more than 19 dif-ferent types of complaints as part of our examination of customer service surveys and the re-

sults were unequivocal: resident re-lations with apartment community staff are one of the key focus areas resulting in concerns that ultimately impact community reputation man-agement and online ratings and re-views.”

Another area where apartment owners and managers can likely

make an impact on customer satis-faction is by completing any deferred maintenance, appliance upgrades, or amenity and common-area improve-ments, particularly when it comes to how a community’s curb appeal ranks on online ratings and reviews.

“We’re certainly beginning to see an industry-wide pattern where communities with the highest levels of customer satisfaction also benefi t from the best online ratings and re-views,” said Batdorf. “As reputation management strategies in multifam-ily continue to evolve, ongoing mea-surement of customer satisfaction (and dissatisfaction) remains a critical tool for evaluating the effectiveness of initiatives designed to improve customer service.” q

Arizona’s two largest cities have won a legal battle against the State to retain control over how they conduct elections for mayor and city council. Phoenix and Tucson will not have to

comply with a state law taking effect in 2014 that will require local gov-ernments to move their candidate elections to even-numbered years to coincide with statewide contests for

president and governor.Each of the cities’ charters allow

them to set their own election cycles. One of the concerns of the two cities was that the consolidation of the elec-

tions could push city elections to the bottom of the ballot. Municipal elec-tions are critically important and this allows cities to direct the timing of their elections. q

Top Seven Reasons to Use Rental Payment History Data

Experian® RentBureau®, the lead-ing provider of rental payment his-tory data to the multifamily industry, recently released the findings of an analysis examining the financial risk posed by residents and the most ef-fective screening metrics to employ to avoid lost revenue from risky resi-dents. The analysis, Risk versus re-ward: identifying the highest-quality resident using rental payment history, provides unique, industry-specific insights regarding the use of rental payment data in conjunction with credit scores in screening to produce a superior prediction of a resident’s propensity to default. The analysis also includes first-of-its-kind data re-garding late payments, nonsufficient funds (NSF), write-offs and rental collections.

Here’s a look at the top seven take-aways from the analysis that offer multifamily owners and property managers a look into the best appli-cations of resident payment history data:

1. Complement traditional credit scoring: The use of rental payment data in conjunction with credit scores in the screening process produces a superior prediction of

a resident’s propensity to default. To improve rent default rates and better assess an applicant’s risk, owners and property managers are best served by utilizing rental payment data along with credit scores. Renters with the highest credit scores show much lower rates of default. However, within that population, those with nega-tive rental history are more than four times as likely to default as those with positive rental history.

2. Realize better risk management: Renters, as measured by credit scores, are a higher-risk group than the U.S. population overall. Eighty-five percent of the renters in the sample set are in one of the three lowest VantageScore® credit ranges (501 to 799), compared with a national average of only 64 percent.

3. Gain insight into propensity to default: How an individual paid rent in the past is a good indica-tor of how he or she will pay rent in the future. Renters with one prior rental debt have a default rate nearly four times higher than

applicants with positive rental his-tory.

4. Avoid balances owed: Rental pay-ment history data allows for the identification of residents who re-peatedly move out of communities owing money. These individuals are nearly six times as likely to re-peat this behavior compared with a resident who has consistently paid rent on time.

5. Spot serial skippers: By identifying prospects with multiple negative prior rental payments, owners and property managers can avoid rent-ing to individuals who likely are serial skippers and have a 35 per-cent chance of defaulting again.

6. Minimize late and NSF payments: Default among residents who have a history of late or NSF payments escalates steadily as the number of late or NSF payments increases. Renters with three or more late or NSF payments have a default rate more than twice as high as renters with only two or fewer late or NSF payments.

7. Achieve higher occupancies: Aug-menting the lack of a credit score with rental history data can help owners and property managers improve occupancy while also managing risk. Unscoreable indi-viduals with positive rental history have lower overall default rates and could make strong renters for managers looking to increase oc-cupancy.

ack and neck injuries can occur at any time and may

cause long-term pain if they go un-treated.

According to a recent ChiroCare – a chiropractic network – study, em-ployees often underestimate their back or neck injuries and do not seek medical treatment, which can lead to productivity losses and possible spi-nal damage.

The study found employees with back and neck pains often do not seek professional help, resulting in missed workdays. Despite their pain, 68 per-cent of survey participants decided not to seek treatment because they were concerned the cost of treatment would be too high.

However, by not seeking medical treatment, the study’s results showed workers were then twice as likely to miss work and three times more apt to make on-the-job mistakes, as nearly 20 percent of the survey par-

ticipants acknowledged their pain caused them to perform tasks incor-rectly.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics re-ported joint sprains and muscular strains and tears can cause back and neck injury. In 2011, 22 percent of spi-nal injuries resulted from overexer-tion in lifting or lowering.

According to the BLS, the aver-age recovery time for a back strain is seven days if the worker seeks treat-ment. However, the longer it takes for employees to seek medical care, the longer the healing process will be.

No matter the industry, all work-ers should learn and use proper tech-niques to protect their spinal cord and back and neck muscles. Brookhaven National Laboratory and the Arizona Chapter of the National Safety Coun-cil offer these tips for safe lifting prac-tices:

• Be aware of any potential tripping hazards in the area

• Keep the back straight, do not stoop forward

• Lift from the squat position, bend-ing at the knees and using leg mus-cles

• Carry the load close to the body, with elbows and arms tucked in

• Never twist from the waist when changing direction

• Keep feet planted and distribute weight evenly

• Lower the lifted object slowly using leg muscles

• Sales Manager

ArizonA Multihousing AssociAtion

By Joanna Grassinger, AMA

ucson’s Freaky Friday Reverse Trade Show brought AMA

members together for a role reversal that mirrored the famous fi lm. For an afternoon, associate members net-worked with management companies to learn more about their properties and their service needs. Hundreds of AMA members gathered into 57 ven-dor teams to visit with the 24 tables representing management companies in the ballroom of the Hilton.

Event emcee, Mike Rochon of Dis-tinctive Carpets, kept the afternoon

moving quickly as he gave instruc-tions on the “speed networking” set up. Despite his “tough-guy” cos-tume, Rochon served as comic relief throughout the trade show.

The management teams adopted the theme with great enthusiasm and creativity. With a little help from their friends at Valley Protective Services, the Scotia Group came prepared to serve dressed as guards in full uni-form. Prime Residential got freaky and their management team took home top honors for their freaktas-tic décor and theming. Visitors to their tables were welcomed with toys and colorful games while their team sported wild wigs.

The AMA’s trophy fi t the theme perfectly. Prime Residential was pre-sented with a pink bulldog trophy bearing a “Best in Show” ribbon.

The Reverse Trade Show creates a unique opportunity for associate members to meet property manage-ment companies and decision makers in a single afternoon. The organizing

committee, led by Mike Ruske of Prime Group and Michelle Winston of Apartment Finder, devised a simple system to ensure that regular mem-bers were able to meet with nearly every associate member over the course of the afternoon. The process was developed to be like a “speed

dating” event where participants could give their “elevator speech” and learn more about management companies’ priorities and needs.

The after-party brought together all of the participants for a causal gathering where members could con-tinue their conversations. This popu-lar close to the annual event featured an outstanding buffet for all of the guests.

Thanks to all of the event spon-sors and participants for making this year’s Reverse Trade Show a great success. q

rizona summer months can be particularly tough for Ari-

zona families with younger children. During the school year, many fami-lies take advantage of school break-fast and lunch programs that offer children stable meals. Once fed, these children are able to concentrate better in the classroom and get the nutrition they need to grow.

When the summer comes around and classes are out, some families struggle to feed their young ones nu-tritious meals every day. To address this serious issue, St. Mary’s Food Bank developed the Kids Café meal service program. For some of their clients, this may be the only meal of the day. The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture and administered by the Arizona Depart-ment of Education, Kids Cafe contin-

ues its efforts to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry so they can live healthy and productive lives.

This summer, St. Mary’s part-nered with Dunlap and Magee, other apartment communities, community based health clinics and schools to offer locations where families could pick up their meals. The apartment communities offered a logical, acces-sible destination for the program and it’s an amenity for residents who take advantage of the program.

“We’re proud that Dunlap & Magee has joined St. Mary’s Food Bank’s Kids Cafe program to pro-vide children free, healthy meals this summer,” said Laura Brill, Director of Culinary and Nutrition Programs for St. Mary’s Food Bank. “One in four children in Arizona is at risk of going hungry tonight and relies on school lunches for their only meals. These are kids that should be growing, learning, and playing, not worrying about where they’re going to fi nd

their next meal. In this partnership with Dunlap & Magee, we are closer to achieving our vision that no child goes to bed hungry so they can live healthy and productive lives.”

The need for these meals, and pro-grams like this one, is on the rise, as evidenced by the staggering growth of the program. This summer, the program has reported a more than 22 percent increase in the number of meals served. But this growing pro-gram still isn’t meeting the needs of all students in Arizona. Only 13 per-cent of those children who qualify for free and reduced lunches receive summer meals.

1 of every 8 Summer meals served in Arizona in 2012 were from St. Mary’s Food Bank

** The Food Research and Action Cen-ter (FRAC) Summer Nutrition Status Report 2013. q

Kids Cafe® is St. Mary’s Food Bank’s meal-service program that provides Ari-zona children with what is often their only meal of the day. And when 1 in 4 of our kids is at risk of going hungry to-night, a nutritious meal served in a safe, accessible and nurturing environment is an investment into our kids and our com-munity.

St. Mary’s Food Bank Alliance, the world’s fi rst food bank, is a non-sectar-ian, nonprofi t organization that allevi-ates hunger by effi ciently gathering and distributing food to the hungry. Serving two-thirds of Arizona’s 15 counties, the organization is committed to volunteer-ism, building community relationships and improving the quality of life for Ari-zonans in need.

While demand for apartment homes remained strong, rising inter-est rates exerted negative pressure on the industry’s ability to secure debt financing according to the National Multi Housing Council’s (NMHC) July Quarterly Survey of Apartment Market Conditions. Only the Market Tightness Index (55) remained above the breakeven line of 50 this quarter. Sales Volume (46) and Equity Financ-ing (49) dipped, with Debt Financing dropping sharply to 20.

“Debt costs for apartment firms have been rising. In addition to the 90 basis point increase in interest rates from the April survey, spreads over Treasuries have also gone up, likely dampening transactions somewhat. Rates are still low by historical stan-dards, however, and at current lev-els should not put too big a crimp in apartment activity going forward,” said Mark Obrinsky, NMHC’s Senior Vice President for Research and Chief Economist. “Underlying demand trends remain strong, and we are ap-proaching the cusp of a meaningful increase in supply that will hopefully be enough to meet the current need for apartment homes.”

Key findings include:• Construction costs are rising na-

tionwide. More than two-thirds (68 percent) of respondents indi-cated that construction costs had increased by more than 5 percent since last year. Another 29 percent indicated construction costs had increased over a year ago, but by less than 5 percent. [Note: These figures exclude the 16 percent of respondents who answered “don’t know.”]

• Market Tightness Index edged up to 55 from 54. Just 14 percent noted looser conditions in the mar-kets they were familiar with. This represents the 13th time in the last 14 quarters in which the index was over 50.

• The Sales Volume Index dropped from 55 to 46. This was the second time in the last three quarters in which the Sales Volume Index was below 50, though just by a little. Over the last eight quarters, the index has averaged 52, suggesting a small pickup in volume over that time.

• The Equity Financing Index dropped 7 points to 49. This was the first sub-50 reading in the last four years. Forty-nine percent viewed equity financing as un-

changed. Twenty-one percent of respondents viewed equity financ-ing as more available while 22 per-cent viewed equity financing as less available.

• Debt Financing Index dropped sharply to 20 from 59. Two-thirds (67 percent) of respondents indi-cated that debt financing condi-tions had worsened since April, and 21 percent considered condi-tions unchanged. Only 8 percent of respondents thought debt financ-ing conditions had improved – the lowest figure since October 2008.

Full survey data are available at www.nmhc.org/goto/61291. q

About the survey: The July 2013 Quar-terly Survey of Apartment Market Condi-tions was conducted July 8-July 15, 2013; 70 CEOs and other senior executives of apartment-related firms nationwide re-sponded.

Based in Washington, D.C., NMHC is a national association representing the interests of the larger and most prominent apartment firms in the U.S. NMHC’s members are the principal officers of firms engaged in all aspects of the apartment industry, including owners, developers, managers and financiers. One-third of Americans rent their housing, and over 14 percent live in a rental apartment.

By Paul A. Henderson, Esq.Law Offices of Scott M. Clark, P.C.

ere at the Law Offices of Scott M. Clark, P.C., we aim to be

forward-looking and proactive in our legal approaches. There are certain key topics that may become issues in the future, and we’d rather address the matter while there is still time to act.

Imagine, for a moment, that it is the end of the year. Given the nearly endless streak of 100°F-and-higher days we have been suffering here in metropolitan Phoenix, this is surely a pleasant fantasy. Diets have been abandoned, Christmas carols have been played incessantly (since before Halloween), and the Cardinals have imploded again.

All right, so maybe it isn’t that pleasant of a fantasy after all. None-theless, in this hypothetical we are now at the time of the year when holiday and end-of-the-year parties are all the vogue and spirits are high. The other type of spirits – alcoholic ones – are generally in high supply as well. Many property management firms host an annual party to cel-ebrate the conclusion of another year and to show appreciation for all the hard work done by their employees.

Drinks are poured, toasts are made, and merry-making is had. Please note that I am avoiding any references to mistletoe; sexual harassment is not the topic of this article.

Unfortunately, with some people alcohol is the fuel for disaster. All it takes is one stupid decision and a driver can turn a vehicle into an en-gine of destruction. Alcohol-related deaths are not terribly uncommon, but most events involve the drunk driver and the victim. What happens when the lush became intoxicated at a company policy? In California, the courts are currently deciding whether the employer can be held liable for a vehicular death caused by an em-ployee after the employee became drunk at a company policy. Califor-nia’s position on this question? Yes, the employer could be liable.

In Purton v. Marriott Int’l, Inc., --- Cal.Rptr.3d ----, 2013 WL 3942979 (Cal.App. 4 Dist. Div. 1, 2013) the California Court of Appeal recently decided that the employer could be held liable for a drunk-driving death caused by a very intoxicated employee. As the Court explained, Michael Landri was a bartender at the Marriott Del Mar who attended a company appreciation party, became intoxicated, and killed someone in an accident. What makes matters

complicated is that Landri consumed two drinks before going to the com-pany party, consumed more alcohol than the company officially allotted through giving out two drinks tickets (although the company did nothing to prohibit extra consumption), and drove home safely before deciding to leave home again – which is when he caused the accident. The trial judge agreed with Marriott and granted its summary judgment application on the basis that the accident occurred during events beyond the scope of Landri’s employment and thus the company was not responsible; the appellate court, however, disagreed.

The Court held that a trier of fact (i.e., the jury) could reasonably con-clude that because the alcohol was provided at a company party held as an appreciation event for the em-ployees, the employer could foresee that an automobile accident was possible. The Court did not specifi-cally rule that the company would be liable; that decision is left up to be determined at the trial. Since the trial judge decided the issue and not a jury, the Court of Appeal remanded the case back for trial.

There may be some concern that this California decision could be imported to Arizona. We need not specifically worry about this deci-sion, however, insofar that California and Arizona have adopted opposing views on employer liability. Arizo-na’s rule, that the accident itself must occur at a time that the employee is acting within the scope of his or her employment, is set forth in Bruce v. Chas Roberts Air Conditioning, 166 Ariz. 221, 226 (App. 1990). The Court of Appeal specifically mentions in its opinion that Arizona is under a dif-ferent legal standard. Additionally, social hosts are held to a different, and lesser, standard of liability than

bars and restaurants – the “Dram Shop Act” applies to merchants sell-ing alcohol, not those providing it as part of a party.

That being said, this topic brings up an important issue: alcohol at par-ties. Alcohol is frequently described as a social lubricant and is many times viewed as a de rigueur partici-pant in any sort of party. Limiting the amount of alcohol at a party might not be popular, but it is a sound busi-ness decision. Issuing a limited num-ber of drink tickets to each partygoer is a start – but, unlike at the Marriott Del Mar, those tickets need to be en-forced. An open bar is an open invita-tion to danger; keeping access limited (or making it a cash bar) is not popu-lar, but it is more practical. Addition-ally, making alternate transportation methods available (e.g., taxis, buses, designated drivers) is a smart choice and one that will serve both the com-pany and its employees well.

The Firm doesn’t oppose alcohol being present at parties. We would rather just see people enjoy it in moderation. Having a rational plan for alcohol consumption at company events is never a bad idea. After all, holiday cheer cools rather quickly when faced with a post-party disas-ter. q

ArizonA Multihousing AssociAtion

By Matthew Koglmeier & Brady Jones, Esq., Koglmeier Law Group, PLC

dmit it, you already thought of your own troublesome

tenant. Just like every family has its “black sheep,” every apartment com-plex has its “bad apple,” aka trouble-some tenant, who manages to upset all their neighbors and the offi ce staff on a regular basis, but somehow al-ways cleans up their act in time to avoid eviction under the standard ten-day notice.

There is light at the end of the tun-nel, however, as long as you follow the correct process to serve 5 and 10 Day Notices and keep good records. Under A.R.S. §33-1368, any tenant that violates their lease or the Ari-zona Residential Landlord & Tenant Act should be served with a ten-day notice (or a fi ve-day notice if the vio-lation is related to health and safety). Even if the tenant cures, they have still used their one strike for that type of violation. If the tenant EVER com-mits the same or similar violation, even months later or after a subse-quent lease renewal, they should be served with a non-curable, “second ten-day notice.” Even for health and safety violations, this non-curable

second notice gives the tenant 10 days to move, not ten days to cure as in a fi rst notice. The “second ten-day notice” is not just another notice; it has to point out that the tenant has al-ready been noticed regarding a same or similar violation, which makes the second violation non-curable.

So just how similar do the viola-tions have to be? If you could reason-ably expect that, given the fi rst notice, the tenant should have known that the new violation would not be tolerated, that is similar enough. For example, many would agree that a late-night party with thumping music is similar enough to loud music coming from a tenant’s car that disturbs the commu-nity or neighbors; they both disrupt the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the other residents with noise.

The key is to make sure that you give written notice of violations that describe the facts of the violation and include date and time of the breach. Weekly courtesy letters or polite chats with the troublemakers are helpful and you should continue to use these non-conventional methods if it is ef-fective for you. Make sure you record these events in your communication log if you want to use this to your advantage at a later time. While they do not carry the weight of a legal no-tice, they show you have been rea-

sonable in your efforts to work out the issue with the tenant. They can be very helpful if the tenant makes a fair housing complaint because you ultimately were required to serve a legal notice due to the tenant’s bad behavior.

Unfortunately, for the truly trou-blesome tenant, the nightmare does not end after the judgment and the writ of restitution. Sometimes . . . they come back, usually as a guest or unauthorized tenant with one of their regular party guests. A notice of tres-passing on their return visit can help; then any time the troublemaker steps foot on the property you can call the police to escort them right back off or arrest them for criminal trespassing.

You should also make sure you do not let that tenant have any ammuni-tion against you once you have suc-cessfully protected your community and staff from their disruptive infl u-ence. After the tenant returns posses-sion of the apartment and pays the amounts owed, including the bank’s confirmation that their check has cleared, make sure you let the court know the judgment has been satis-fi ed. While some people think that fi ling a satisfaction of judgment with the court is merely a formality, it is not. The court rules of procedure for eviction actions require the prevail-

ing party to fi le a satisfaction of judg-ment after the judgment is paid off, fulfi lled, or otherwise taken care of. If you do not fi le a satisfaction of judg-ment (or have your attorney do it) the evicted tenant can ask the court to rule that the judgment has been sat-isfi ed and then they can and will ask to have their attorneys’ fees and costs awarded against you, if any. The ex-tenant may also have a legal claim, such as conversion, against you for not applying these payments to the judgment and thereby keeping it on the tenant’s record.

Doing the paperwork and keeping open communication with your at-torney is the best way to quickly rid your property of troublesome tenants and keep them gone. q

The Troublesome Tenant

A

recent months, our firm has seen a rise in eviction com-

plaints seeking immediate termina-tion due to a discharge of a firearm on property. In several of these cases, the defendant alleged the discharge was not “illegal” as defined by A.R.S. §§ 33-1368(A)(2); 13-3107. And in some cases, tenants immediately reported the discharge to the local police, which resulted in the police reporting the discharge as accidental rather than illegal. This article will discuss the legal issues surrounding the discharge of a firearm on prop-erty, and the remedies available to landlords when a discharge of a fire-arm occurs.

Pursuant to A.R.S. § 33-1368(A)(2): “If there is a breach that is both material and irreparable and that oc-curs on the premises, including but not limited to an illegal discharge of a weapon…” (emphasis added) the landlord may move for an immediate termination of the lease agreement. Pursuant to A.R.S. § 13-3107 an illegal discharge of a firearm “occurs when a person, with criminal negligence, discharges a firearm within or into the city limits of any municipality, and they are less than one mile from any occupied structure” (emphasis added). Under Arizona law, a person acts with criminal negligence when a person discharges a weapon and fails to perceive the substantial and unjus-tifiable risk that will occur as result

of the discharge. The risk must be of such nature and degree that the fail-ure to perceive it constitutes a gross deviation from the standard of care that a reasonable person would ob-serve in the situation. See A.R.S. § 13-105(10)(D)

Consequently, in order for the dis-charge of a firearm to be considered illegal, the tenant must have acted in a criminally negligent manner. A person is criminally negligent when their conduct grossly deviates from that of a reasonable person in simi-lar circumstances. In order to deter-mine criminal negligence, the court reviews the conduct of the tenant and compares it to how a reasonable person would have acted in a simi-lar situation. If the tenant’s conduct fell below that of a reasonable person in a similar situation, then the court would find that the defendant was criminally negligent, that the dis-charge was illegal under A.R.S. § 13-3107, and that the landlord is entitled to an immediate termination under A.R.S. § 33-1368(A)(2). For example, if a tenant cleans his loaded weapon in his apartment, which shares four walls with four other apartments, his conduct may qualify as a gross devia-tion from what a reasonable person would do and therefore, criminally negligent. The court’s reasoning would be based on the fact that a rea-sonable person would likely unload the weapon or clean it at another lo-cation where an accidental discharge would not put four other residents in danger. On the contrary, a court would likely find the same scenario

for a tenant in a rural setting as not grossly deviating from what a reason-able person would do because none of the same elements of risk exist in a rural setting. Accordingly, when as-sessing whether to evict a tenant due to a discharge of a firearm, one must always consider the facts and circum-stances surrounding the discharge of the firearm.

In most cases, the court will find that any discharge of a firearm in a multi-housing property constitutes an illegal discharge of a firearm due to the proximity of other tenants, and the risk of -- potential death -- posed by the conduct. However, as men-tioned previously, some tenants will discharge a gun and then contact local police to report the discharge before property managers have the oppor-tunity to do so. If the police find that the discharge was accidental, or not illegal pursuant to the statute, they will note that information in the re-port. Tenants are relying on these re-ports to argue that the discharge was not illegal and that they cannot be evicted under A.R.S. §33-1368(A)(2).

Simply because a discharge of a firearm may not be illegal, however, does not prevent a landlord from im-mediately terminating the lease of tenant who discharges a firearm on property. A.R.S. § 33-1368(A)(2) also states that the landlord may move for an immediate eviction based on a “…breach of the lease agreement that otherwise jeopardizes the health, safety and welfare of the landlord, the landlord’s agent or another tenant…” (emphasis added). This section of the

statute allows a landlord to immedi-ately terminate a lease agreement if the tenant’s conduct jeopardizes the health, safety and welfare of the landlord or another tenant. So, while the discharge of a firearm may not be technically illegal under A.R.S. § 13-3107, it undoubtedly poses a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the landlord and other tenants in a multi-housing setting. Accordingly, should a tenant present evidence at a hearing or at trial indicating that the discharge of the firearm was not illegal, the landlord may still move forward with immediate termina-tion because the conduct jeopardizes the health, safety and welfare of the landlord and other tenants. In prac-tice, this argument has been very suc-cessful in cases seeking an immediate termination based on discharge of a firearm. q

Building materials, design, wiring and fixtures must be matched to the remaining structure. Issues such as moisture, mold, and debris may require attention. Special insurance requirements must be considered. When it comes to reconstruction, you want experts. Since 2003, ADANAC has brought hundreds of Arizona homes and businesses back to life.
