Plan in Advance for Selling

by Compass Commercialon 6 March 2019in Central Oregon Multifamily News

The following content is taken directly from the Central Oregon Multifamily News, Winter 2019 issue.

Topping the headlines in Central Oregon multifamily news is statewide rent control, and it does appear this measure will be passed. As usual, small businesses, like most Central Oregon rental property owners, must find a way to operate in the face of government headwinds. It seems like a better legislative approach would be to find ways to increase the supply of rental housing by encouraging and incentivizing housing providers, not targeting and obstructing them.

The good news is that the market continues to do well, driven by strong in-migration. A significant amount of new supply coming online in recent years has caused vacancy rates to inch up and rent increases to slow dramatically. Both are healthy developments as the free market continues to be most effective for regulating supply and demand and ultimately rental rates.

THINKING OF SELLING?
We strongly recommend proactively preparing your property in advance of going on the market. Surprises kill deals! They also reduce net sales proceeds and cause unnecessary pressure and stress.

Prior to putting your property on the market:

  1. Tour all units. You could be very surprised at what some of your tenants may be up to. There is an old adage that applies here “you get what you inspect, not what you expect.”
  2. Have your trusted contractor go through the units with you including the attic and crawlspace. Take care of deferred maintenance. Doing this proactively on your own timeline is cost effective, as opposed to operating under the pressure of deal timelines, appraisers, inspectors, and lenders.

This should not only apply when getting a property ready to sell but should also be considered on at least an annual basis. If you want to really get a gold star when putting your property on the market, consider having a complete building inspection done prior to hitting the market.
