Board chair
Peter Harradine is an immigrant to America who’s fi rst try was un-successful. “When I was 16,” Peter
says, “my younger brother and mother had already emigrated from England. I was fi nishing up my senior year of high school and the plan was for me to join them in the states once I had complet-ed my exams. However, once I made it

Multifamily Financing OptionsHave Never Been Better
By Paul Winterowd, Bonneville Multi-family Capital
The Mortgage Bankers Associa-tion (MBA) recently reported $195 billion worth or multifam-
ily mortgages were closed in 2014. Th is record level of volume has continued to increase in 2015. Th is is good news for multifamily borrowers because there is clearly a lot of capital in the marketplace.
Many multifamily investors with-out large scale operations are unaware of the many options available out-side the traditional banking system. Again citing the MBA survey, the bulk of multifamily loans were fund-ed by Banks and GSE’s (Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac). Th e next most common was Life Insurance Companies, then FHA and fi nally Commercial Mort-gage Backed Securities (CMBS).
Banks and credit unions are com-monplace and virtually everyone is aware they are a source of capital. However it doesn’t mean they are the only options when it comes to fi nanc-ing multifamily projects.
Government Sponsored Entities (GSE’s)
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are two separate sources of capital. Th eir

1. Access - Rentegration.com is a web based,
access to forms generation, archives, prop-erty management database, basic account-ing, vendor ordering and other services.
2. Rental and Lease Forms - Unlimited use
forms. All Rentegration.com forms are cre-ated by attorneys and/or local rental hous-ing associations.
- Owners and managers can track income and expense for each unit, property and company. Per-fect for mid and small size property manag-ers and independent rental owners, who neither have the need or budget for larger, more expensive software.

Mid and small size property managers and independent rental owners can manage their entire busi-ness at a fraction of the cost of other soft-ware and forms.

President’s Message
Cheri Goss,Board Chair, UtahApartment Association
How I Can Help Better the UAA
As I look back over 80 years of board chairs who have served the UAA, I know a single board
chair has only a brief time to infl uence the organization. Th erefore, I set goals of my own of how I could help better the Utah Apartment Association in the year 2015.
1 – Build a board culture of account-ability, contribution and ownership by assigning areas of responsibility to every board member (33 volunteers this year) and tracking progress to empower ownership of UAA’s mis-sion. Th is organization is run by the board, and I want my board members to each have ownership and an area of accountability while on the board.
• Th is year was the fi rst year that every board member had an area of responsibility or a specifi c as-signment. Th is helped engage the board in levels never seen before.
2 – Make membership growth and outreach the #1 priority of UAA lead-ership and membership. We grew another 7,000 units this year and are making membership referrals a pri-ority of the board, committees, and all members.
• Last month we held a membership appreciation event to reward refer-rers we gave a grand prize of 1,000 dollars for membership referrals. We also just received a national award for membership growth, I think the more we grow the bet-ter we can serve our industry. So I would ask each of you to help us continue to grow this coming 2016 year by referring at least one new member each to the UAA this year.
3 – Establish UAA as the go-to place for data by developing and improving
data and resources off ered by UAA including market and contact infor-mation. We already have great publi-cations and resources and I want us to continue to provide more.
• By year end we plan on releasing the fi rst quarterly rental market data report that will cover both large apartments and indepen-dent rental units. I am excited to be part of and see the progression of the UAA.
4 – Continue to provide Quality Education opportunities for apart-ment managers like Apartment All-Stars, UPRO and Good Landlord training etc.
• UAA is the only association in the country that provides apartment all-stars training for free. In addi-tion, our tradeshow education was the most attended ever. We have so many great programs I hope you will take advantage of.
5 – Create opportunities for mem-bers to have “fun” and release from
the stress of business. I personally love to have a good time and think this an important role of the association.
• Th e UAA has provided countless opportunities to release myself from the stress of business and have fun. I thoroughly enjoy the many activities and meetings the UAA provides.
I could not have accomplished these goals without the help of the 2015 board, committees, and UAA staff . It was an honor to serve the UAA as Board Chair this year. I look forward to the new heights that the 2016 Board Chair Peter Harradine will take with the UAA. I am grateful to be part of the great tradition of 80 years of vol-unteer leadership, as the UAA makes a diff erence in our business and in the lives of people in Utah.

Utah Apartment Association
Director’s Message
L. Paul Smith, CAEExecutive Director,Utah ApartmentAssociation
You the Members Run the Utah Apartment Association
The Utah Apartment Association is classifi ed by the IRS as a “501 C-6 Trade Association”. A trade
association, also known as an industry trade group, business association or sector association, is an organization founded and funded by businesses that operate in a specifi c industry.
According to Wikipedia. “An in-dustry trade association participates in public relations activities such as advertising, education, political do-nations, lobbying and publishing. However, its main focus is collabo-ration between companies, or stan-
dardization. Associations may off er other services, such as producing conferences, networking or charita-ble events or off ering classes or edu-cational materials. Many associations are non-profi t organizations governed by bylaws and directed by offi cers who are also members.”
Th e part I want to focus on is that this association is governed by by-laws and directed by offi cers who are also members. In November, the 2015 UAA Board will be installed. Th at board will consist of thirty-three UAA members who come from di-verse backgrounds. Th ere will be landlords who own and manage single family homes and small rent-al properties. Others will own and manage large apartments. Some will be vendors who provide products and services to the industry. Many have multiple years of experience and great
expertise in property management.And though they are a diverse
group they will unite as one entity to plan, direct and fulfi ll the mission of the Utah Apartment Association, which is that we should stay “Utah’s leading advocate and resource for the owners, real estate professionals, de-velopers, management teams, suppli-ers and service providers dedicated to quality rental housing.” On the board, no one person has more power than the other. Even the board chair has no authority to make decisions or act for the board except that granted them by the board.
Th ere will occasionally be diff erenc-es on the direction to proceed, how to allocate the precious funds of the association, and how to allocate the limited time of staff and volunteers. But they will be resolved because each board will shed any personal agenda
and learn to work as a team for the benefi t of all members. Th e UAA does have a small staff but the strategic plan, our mission and goals, and ALL major decisions are made or super-vised by the UAA board.
In addition to board members, there will be another 150 UAA members who serve on committees like govern-ment aff airs, events, membership and education. Committees also include a number of volunteers who will spend thousands of hours devoted to carry-ing out the work of the UAA.
If you would like to give input to the UAA or get involved as a board or committee member please contact any board member (they are all listed in our membership directory and on the website www.uaahq.org) or con-tact a staff member at 888-487-5619.

From England to America ...continued from page 1
to the Denver airport the US immigra-tion people searched through all of my bags and decided that I had too much stuff to be a tourist, like I had a Visa for, so they sent me on the next plane back to England to get my visa sorted out. I had to wait another two years before I could come back and reside as a perma-nent resident and then latter becoming a citizen”.
Peter speaks with an endearing accent, one that gains him fame and attention wherever he goes. But it’s not the accent that impresses his real estate partner and father-in-law, Dave Harman Sr. with Century 21 Harman Real Estate and Harman Property Management Group. “Peter is a really hard worker,” says Dave. In fact, while Peter was dating his daughter Lisa, and finishing up his business degree, Dave saw something in him and asked him to come work for his property management business. “Over the last 10 years Peter has really learned the business well and during the last few years the business has grown tremen-dously under his leadership”, Says Dave. He adds, half-jokingly, “and now he is making me a ton of money!”
Peter impresses everyone he meets, say Gloria Froerer, NAA Board Mem-ber and past President of the UAA. “I remember the first UAA board meet-ing he came to as a young fresh and new board member. When he talks, people really pay attention. And I don’t think it’s only because of his dreamy accent,” she says. Peter has worked his way up through UAA leadership and takes the helm of the UAA Board for 2016 at a time when he is also a rising star at the NAA. He serves on multiple
committees with the National Apart-ment Association including on the Independent Rental Owner’s Council and the Next Gen committee, where he is very respected.”
Peter is a graduate of the NAA Lyce-um program, an exclusive leadership training that only allows one person from the mountain west region per year. Peter is also a Certified Apart-ment Manager.
As 2016 UAA Board Chair, Pe-ter has set a goal to put emphasis on the mission statement and repeat the UAA Mission Statement at board meetings to help remind the board and staff of what our purpose is. “I think if we are evaluating all our ac-tivities by our mission statement we
will be more effective as an organiza-tion”, he says. Peter also wants to eval-uate all UAA programs and services this year against the mission. “If what we are doing syncs with the mission,” he says,” we should keep it and ensure its success, if not then…”
As one of UAA’s strongest mem-bers in Utah County, Peter has a de-sire to grow our membership in that county. “For some reason,” he says, “Utah County is where we have the lowest market penetration of any ma-jor county in Utah. It’s also the fast-est growing county and one where we need to focus some of our member-ship growth efforts. I want to see not only staff focus more on Utah County but also all of our Utah county mem-
bers and others involved in sharing the importance of the UAA to others in the industry.”
Peter has been an effective exam-ple of this. In 2015, two of the people Peter talked to about the UAA joined and he has several others on the hook that he is reeling in. “Some people who are in our industry just don’t know what the UAA does or under-stand how important the UAA is to our personal success. We just have to educate them and ask them to be a part of us. Once people join the asso-ciation I think they soon realize what a great resource it is for them”.
Among Peters other goals as board chair in 2016, Peter wants to focus on:
• Stabilizing revenues streams and increase sponsorship income
• Boost our value proposition by increasing networking opportu-nities, generating positive press in the media, and increasing our image and credibility with govern-ment and other groups
• Continue to develop educational resources and training for main-tenance, leasing and management
“I am excited and honored to serve as board chair in 2016 and am thrilled to help continue our growth and ac-complishments,” he says.

Multifamily Financing Options ...continued from page 4
purpose is to expand the second-ary mortgage market by securitiz-ing mortgages in the form of mort-gage-backed securities (MBS). This allows more lending by reducing the reliance on locally based banks and credit unions.
Fannie & Freddie Interest rates for Multifamily properties in today’s marketplace range from 3.75% to 5% depending on variables such as Loan To Value (LTV), Debt Service Cov-erage Ratio (DSCR), location of the property, and term of the loan.
Fannie and Freddie have their nu-ances but in a general sense the two are quite similar. They both have pro-grams for purchase or refinance loans including value-add type projects, student housing, and seniors housing. Ultimately the two are competitors so it makes sense to compare pricing, sizing, and structuring options be-tween the two before picking one or the other.
A very attractive aspect of Fannie and Freddie loans is they are non-re-course loans. Borrowers familiar with banks know most bank loans come with a full recourse stipulation at-tached. Usually they like the fact the property is the only collateral against the loan rather than any and all assets the borrower possesses.
The max LTV with Fannie is 80% with a 1.25 DSCR whereas Freddie Mac is slightly more conservative at 75% LTV, 1.25 DSCR. Right now Freddie Mac rates are slightly lower,
however the underwriting process is slightly more cumbersome and can lengthen the time to fund by a week or two.
Small Balance Loan ProgramFreddie Mac has developed a fan-
tastic multifamily mortgage product for borrowers needing a loan in the $1 - $5 million range. It is called the Freddie Mac Small Balance Loan pro-gram and offers low rates (currently in the 4%-5% range depending on term, market, and LTV), minimal fees, and a streamlined process to funding in approximately 60-90 days. This is also a non-recourse loan with interest only options available.
This is a perfect loan for a stabi-lized 20-50 unit property in Utah on either a new acquisition or a refi-nance. It is even possible to pull cash out of a property of this size with substantial equity.
FHA Insured Multifamily LoansFHA is a part of The Department
of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) and also insures loans for multifamily properties. There are a lot of misconceptions about FHA multi-family loans. It is true there is more bureaucracy to negotiate when going through the FHA process for a mul-tifamily loan. There are also ongoing management stipulations that really just ensure the property continues to be well run and well maintained. Some of these regulations are unique to FHA loans but are ultimately nec-
essary to justify the low interest rates and longer terms.
The benefits of a FHA loan can eas-ily outweigh some of these challeng-es. The interest rates are currently in the mid 3% range for existing prop-erties and the low 4% range on new construction. The most compelling feature of these loans is the 35 year term and amortization (40 year on new construction).
This fully eliminates any future re-finance risk in 5, 7 or 10 years. Un-doubtedly we’re moving into a higher interest rate environment. The longer term and lower rates also reduces the monthly payment so monthly cash flows become richer. A recent com-parison of a FHA vs. GSE loan on a $10 million mortgage showed over a $90,000 per year savings with the FHA option.
Typically it doesn’t make financial sense to do a Multifamily FHA loan for loan amounts under $2.5 million because of the initial upfront work, but it can be done. FHA loans are also non-recourse mortgages.
Life Insurance Company LoansLife insurance companies are typ-
ically more conservative funders of loans. This means the borrower will need more equity in the project (max LTV’s are in the 70% range), but they do offer early rate locks and can be more flexible around funding projects that aren’t fully leased up after con-struction. Interest rates on these loans
can also be very attractive but are sub-ject to the usual constraints of LTV, DSCR, Term and quality of property.
SummaryWith regard to multifamily borrow-
ing, the important thing to realize is there are a lot of loan options out there for multifamily property owners and developers. There is a much broad-er spectrum of funding options than what the banks offer. Non-bank loan origination will typically be more cre-ative, move faster, and provide more flexible solutions around the borrow-er’s needs and unique situations.

condition of the property when you get in.

DON’T• Change the locks on your tenants
without a court order.• Shut off the utilities as a means to
lock them out.• Th reaten the tenants that the locks
will be changed at a certain time unless you have a court order that tells them they need to leave at that time. Even then, it is best to leave it up to the Constable or Sheriff .
