How do you sell your monthly ancillary fees? Not include in the rent? Rent $600 Door to Door Trash $25 Parking fee $10 Payment from resident $635 Include in the rent? Rent $635 Payment from resident $635 ($25 door to door trash pick up and $10 parking fee included) On the surface this looks no different, but when you market your property there could be a calculated difference….
How will a buyer underwrite your property? Include in the rent? Rent $650 Door to Door Trash $0 Parking Fee $0 Total Revenue Per Unit $650 Not include in the rent? Rent $650 Door to Door Trash $25 Parking fee $10 Total Revenue Per Unit $685 • The next buyer will underwrite a targeted rent value • Existing ancillary accounts will be included $685 vs. $650 = $35/unit of additional revenue $35 x 12 months x 300 units = $126,000 $126,000 at a 7% cap rate = $1.8 million of value
