19 Asset Management Changes from Appropriations Act of 2008 The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2008 contained two provisions which pertain directly to asset management. The two provisions are: PHA election to be exempt from asset management for PHAs with 250-400 unitsPHA election to be exempt from asset management for PHAs with 250-400 units Use of Capital Fund proceeds to pay for central office costsUse of Capital Fund proceeds to pay for central office costs The first provision is only effective for CY 2008. The second is considered permanent legislation.

20 400-Unit Exemption for CY 2008 For the purpose of being exempt from asset management, the size threshold increased from 250 units to 400 units For the purpose of being exempt from asset management, the size threshold increased from 250 units to 400 units Does not change small PHA threshold for other program areas Does not change small PHA threshold for other program areas PHAs between 250-400 units that elect to convert will not have option of “alternative asset management model” (available only for PHAs of less than 250 units) PHAs between 250-400 units that elect to convert will not have option of “alternative asset management model” (available only for PHAs of less than 250 units) Exemption only authorized for CY 2008 Exemption only authorized for CY 2008 PHA must notify HUD via CY 2008 operating subsidy submissions by April 25, 2008 PHA must notify HUD via CY 2008 operating subsidy submissions by April 25, 2008

21 400-Unit Exemption: Implications Will not implement fee for service model, and will not create a COCC Will not implement fee for service model, and will not create a COCC Will not receive the $4 PUM asset management add-on Will not receive the $4 PUM asset management add-on All units will be combined into one AMP, possibly affecting Project Expense Levels (PELs) All units will be combined into one AMP, possibly affecting Project Expense Levels (PELs) Refer to PIH Notice 2008-16 for additional implications Refer to PIH Notice 2008-16 for additional implications

22 Capital Fund Program Changes PHAs may transfer Capital Funds to Operations for payment of central office costs PHAs may transfer Capital Funds to Operations for payment of central office costs In implementing this provision, PHAs must maintain cost allocations for overhead costs (in lieu of fee-for-service/management fees) and, therefore, not establish a COCC In implementing this provision, PHAs must maintain cost allocations for overhead costs (in lieu of fee-for-service/management fees) and, therefore, not establish a COCC Overhead costs must still be considered reasonable and necessary Overhead costs must still be considered reasonable and necessary Large PHAs may still only transfer up to 20% to “Operations” Large PHAs may still only transfer up to 20% to “Operations”

30 Components of Formula Funding To understand the amount of funds available to any project, one must understand the following: To understand the amount of funds available to any project, one must understand the following:  Project Expense Level (PEL)  Utility Expense Level (UEL)  Add-Ons  Frozen Formula Income  Proration

31 Project Expense Level (PEL) Model-generated estimate of cost to operate a project on a per unit basis, exclusive of taxes, utilities, and add-ons Model-generated estimate of cost to operate a project on a per unit basis, exclusive of taxes, utilities, and add-ons Amount expressed in PUMs (per unit month) Amount expressed in PUMs (per unit month) Major coefficients that have a large impact on PEL Major coefficients that have a large impact on PEL  Unit Size (Bedroom Mix)  Local Market  Age of Property  Occupancy Type (Family vs. Elderly) National average was $ 325 PUM in 2007 (excluding New York City Housing Authority) National average was $ 325 PUM in 2007 (excluding New York City Housing Authority)

32 Utility Expense Level (UEL) Represents the average utility consumption for a project over the past three years, multiplied by recent utility rates Represents the average utility consumption for a project over the past three years, multiplied by recent utility rates Amount expressed in PUMs Amount expressed in PUMs National average was $125.95 PUM in 2007 National average was $125.95 PUM in 2007 Assigned UEL will vary by project Assigned UEL will vary by project

33 2007 Add-Ons Add-OnsAmountPUM Self-Sufficiency $ 13,093,430 $ 1.00 Energy Loan Amortization $ 16,844,422 $ 1.29 Payment in Lieu of Taxes $ 95,199,853 $ 7.26 Cost of Independent Audit $ 17,159,716 $ 1.31 Resident Participation $ 24,860,325 $ 1.90 Asset Management Fee $ 42,777,668 $ 3.26 IT (Info. Technology) Fee $ 26,215,754 $ 2.00 Asset Repositioning $ 43,329,841 $ 3.31 Total Add-Ons $279,481,009$21.32

34 Frozen Formula Income Equal to a project’s rental income reported on 2004 financial statements, adjusted for changes in utility allowances Equal to a project’s rental income reported on 2004 financial statements, adjusted for changes in utility allowances Effective for 2007 through 2009 Effective for 2007 through 2009 National average was $181.09 PUM in 2007 National average was $181.09 PUM in 2007

35 Proration Each year, total subsidy eligibility is compared with appropriations for the Operating Fund program; the difference is proration Each year, total subsidy eligibility is compared with appropriations for the Operating Fund program; the difference is proration Expressed as a percentage Expressed as a percentage Example: Example:  Eligibility = $4.0 billion  Appropriation = $3.6 billion  Proration = 90%

36 Determining Project Funding Project Expense Level (PEL) + Utilities Expense Level (UEL) + Add-ons = Formula Expenses - Formula Income = Subsidy Eligibility - Proration = Actual Subsidy + Rental Income + Other Income + Transfers = Effective Income Effective Income - Operating Expenses = Net Income

37 Project-Based Budgeting Used for planning purposes Used for planning purposes Budgeted amounts must reconcile to FDS Budgeted amounts must reconcile to FDS Must be approved by PHA Board Must be approved by PHA Board Not subject to HUD approval Not subject to HUD approval Project-based funding Project-based budgeting Project-based budgeting

38 Project-Based Budgeting (continued) What are project-based budgets? Itemized projection of income and expenses over a specific period Itemized projection of income and expenses over a specific period Guideline for operating the project Guideline for operating the project

39 Sample Conventional Budget Gross Potential Income (GPI) Gross Potential Income (GPI) - Vacancy and Collection Loss + Miscellaneous Income = Effective Gross Income (EGI) - Operating Expenses = Net Operating Income (NOI) - Reserves for Replacement - Annual Debt Service (ADS) = Cash Flow

40 Ratios Used for Expense Benchmarking Operating Expense Ratio (%) = Operating Expense per Unit ($) = Several variables may impact benchmarks Several variables may impact benchmarks Expense benchmarks can be used to compare efficiencies across properties Expense benchmarks can be used to compare efficiencies across properties Operating Expenses Income Number of Units

45 Project-Based Accounting Year-end project statements submitted to HUD Year-end project statements submitted to HUD Can only charge projects for services actually received Can only charge projects for services actually received Fees must be considered reasonable Fees must be considered reasonable Project-based funding Project-based budgeting Project-based accounting Project-based accounting

46 Project-Based Accounting (continued) For conventional properties, the financial performance of each property is tracked individually and reported to the owner For conventional properties, the financial performance of each property is tracked individually and reported to the owner This allows the manager and owner to make the best possible decisions for each individual property This allows the manager and owner to make the best possible decisions for each individual property Similarly, PHAs will assemble project level financial data Similarly, PHAs will assemble project level financial data

47 Project-Based Accounting Under the Final Rule Annual year-end financial statements on each AMP will be required  Revenues, expenses, balance sheet  To be included with the Financial Data Schedule (FDS)  FDS will also be revised to include a column for the COCC

51 Project-Based Management (PBM) “The provision of property-management services that is tailored to the unique needs of each property, given the resources available to that property...Under PBM, these property management services are arranged, coordinated, or overseen by management personnel who have been assigned responsibility for the day-to-day operation of that property and who are charged with direct oversight of operations of that property.” “The provision of property-management services that is tailored to the unique needs of each property, given the resources available to that property...Under PBM, these property management services are arranged, coordinated, or overseen by management personnel who have been assigned responsibility for the day-to-day operation of that property and who are charged with direct oversight of operations of that property.” 24 CFR 990 24 CFR 990

52 Why Practice PBM? Maximizes performance at all levels Maximizes performance at all levels Local staff are closer to market changes and community issues Local staff are closer to market changes and community issues On-site staff can monitor the project On-site staff can monitor the project Response to resident issues is faster and more personal Response to resident issues is faster and more personal

53 Common Characteristics of PBM Each project has an operating budget to be approved by the owner Each project has an operating budget to be approved by the owner The project is assigned dedicated management and maintenance personnel who frequently work on site The project is assigned dedicated management and maintenance personnel who frequently work on site If a project is too small to afford full-time staff, the project may have part-time or shared staff If a project is too small to afford full-time staff, the project may have part-time or shared staff

54 Common Characteristics of PBM (Continued) Site personnel have significant authority and responsibility over the day-to-day operations Site personnel have significant authority and responsibility over the day-to-day operations Most project management tasks are handled or coordinated by the on-site staff Most project management tasks are handled or coordinated by the on-site staff Procurement is done by on-site management and reviewed by supervisor Procurement is done by on-site management and reviewed by supervisor The person primarily in charge of the project on a day-to-day basis, including maintenance, is the site manager The person primarily in charge of the project on a day-to-day basis, including maintenance, is the site manager

55 Project-Based Management Example You own a group of restaurants. Would you have a budget for each restaurant? Would you have a budget for each restaurant? Would you hire a manager for each restaurant? Would you hire a manager for each restaurant? What roles would you assign to on-site staff vs. central staff?

59 HUD Oversight and the Public Housing Assessment System (PHAS) Each project will be evaluated on financial, managerial, and physical aspects in addition to use of Capital Funds Each project will be evaluated on financial, managerial, and physical aspects in addition to use of Capital Funds New system will: New system will:  Be consistent with the norms in multifamily housing  Avoid PHA self-certifications  Rely on existing data sources  Emphasize on-site management reviews

60 Internal PHA Monitoring Mechanisms Develop mechanisms to collect data to measure actual AMP performance against goals Develop mechanisms to collect data to measure actual AMP performance against goals Goals must be clearly articulated in annual plans and budgets. For example, budget goals may include monthly income and expenditures. Goals must be clearly articulated in annual plans and budgets. For example, budget goals may include monthly income and expenditures.

61 Project Goals In order to measure performance, goals must be articulated In order to measure performance, goals must be articulated Annual budget preparation includes goals: Annual budget preparation includes goals:  Rent collections  Vacancies  Unit turnarounds  Inspections  Maintenance services
