  1. Valuation Issues in Today’s Market Prepared by R.K. Barnes & Associates, Inc.

  2. One of the most challenging environments ever encountered by market participants. • U.S. economy has shed 5.73 million jobs since the recession began in December of 2007 • Job losses have extended across all job industries causing companies to downsize, consolidate, or go dark • The current economic climate has had a major impact on real estate • Most notably residential real estate • Although, becoming more visible in commercial real estate

  3. As a Result of these negative influences: • Investors are struggling for preservation of value and maintaining ownership • Declining rents, declining occupancies, rising concessions, etc. • Foreclosure activity is rising • Restricted debt options • Many of the big banks are gone or sitting on the sidelines • Smaller community banks are willing but, limited in deal size • Declining tenant demand • Rising overall cap rates • And eroded market confidence

  4. Valuation Issues in Today’s Market • Capitalization Rates • Tenant Risk Assessment • Vacancy Rates • Discounted Cash Flow Models/Discount Rates • Market Rent Changes • Expense Rate Changes • Reserves for Cap X • Holding Periods • Concessions

  5. Overall Cap Rate Analysis-1st Qtr. 2009 Property Type Cap Rate Qtr.

  6. Capitalization Rate Comments • One of the largest quarterly spikes was exhibited in multi-family (75 basis points). The reason is largely attributed to increasing competition via foreclosed homes and unsold condominiums which have been turned into rental units. • Second largest quarterly spike was net leased properties (73 basis points). Largely attributable to the large number of national retailers dismal performance over the past few months.

  7. Capitalization Rate Comments – Local Market • Trends locally, generally mirror the national market as will be shown in forthcoming capitalization rates • Jim Dunn comments in newsletter regarding 15% cap rate….while cap rates are up, nothing we’ve seen (generally speaking) above 10% • Bid-ask pricing gap remains wide…many sellers have a 1-2 year ago mind set..buyers have a current mind set; although, want 1-2 year ago valuation results

  19. Tenant Risk Assessment In Valuation, Contd. • Lenders are increasingly requesting “go dark” values requiring appraisers to consider spaces without a specific tenant in place (typically the build to suit tenant) and what impact this would have on value…

  20. Vacancy Rates In The Valuation Process • Underwriting to submarkets unless there is a compelling story and/or history • All leases under 7 or 8 years in remaining term are subject to vacancy –including the nationals

  21.

  30. Discounted Cash Flow Models & Discount Rates • Forecasting Models have been effected due to rising discount rates, more modest market rent changes, escalating expense projections, including reserves for capital expenditures. • Discount Rates • Market Rent Changes • Expense Changes • Replacement Reserves (reserves for cap x)

  38. Concessions in the Market • Concessions vary widely depending upon area and include excessive tenant improvement, free rent, lease buyouts, moving costs, etc.

  39. Holding Periods in the Valuation Process • Some Property Types such as vacant land we are utilizing holding periods with discount rates in order to adjust for “time” or market conditions without any quantifiable adjustment data from sales

  40. Conclusion • One of the most challenging times for investors • Job losses, companies downsizing, consolidating etc. • Struggle to preserve value • Restricted debt options • Diminished tenant demand

  41.
