From John Johnson, CCIM - Atlanta, GA
 I received this article from the social media guide Mashable.com via a recent newsletter from the International Council of Shopping Centers, and wanted to share it because it reiterates the importance of keeping a critical focus on not only my own marketing objectives, but also on how information is being exchanged at a continuing rate change. In the first point, it mentions that globally the average person spends 6 hours per month on social media. That is a startling piece of information and this entire article really points out why individuals at the highest levels of companies must be aware of and involved in this incredible phenomenon.

 Bob Clark, News Radio 770 KKOB: Walt, you’ve talked before about the difficulties investment property owners are facing these days, what can property owners do to get through these tough times?
Good Morning Bob. Owners need to check their properties vital signs, possibly look at some preventative measures, call in a specialist or even perform cosmetic surgery if a property looks weathered or needs a boost. Wherever the property is in its life cycle the goal is to avoid emergencies and create strategies against plummeting values.

Bob Clark, News Radio 770 KKOB: Walt you wanted to discuss how commercial real estate is valued and the different approaches to valuing commercial real estate.
Good morning Bob. Residential properties are usually valued in one way and that is by comparison approach or analyzing comparable properties. The market comparison approach is also used in commercial real estate. The comparison approach is analyzing similar properties in similar areas and adjusting values for any differences both positive and negative versus the subject property.

From John Johnson, CCIM - Atlanta, GA | It has recently been made aware that the U.S. House of Representatives is likely to consider a tax increase on real estate partnerships next week with the U.S. Senate following the week of May 24th. If this legislation passes through the House and Senate, we expect it to be signed into law before Memorial Day. ICSC (International Council of Shopping Centers) recently reported to its members:

One huge benefit of leasing is the ability to remain as liquid as possible and not affect your debt load on a balance sheet. Leasing is often called “off-balance sheet financing” and this fact is a critical factor in analyzing lease vs. buy decisions as well as sale-leasebacks. These accounting changes detailed in the www.globest.com article below would place lease expense on the balance sheet, and in my opinion, have unintended consequences for tenants everywhere.

Steve Kawulok, Fort Collins CO | Major League Baseball season has opened, and fans everywhere have renewed hopes for their team making a pennant run this season. Some teams, like the New York Yankees, bolster their player ranks through buying sprees aimed at star players from other teams. Others hope that they can find the right balance of new promising rookies brought up through their farm system, and veteran players. The 2003 book “Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game” highlighted such a baseball team strategy. Well, ‘Moneyball’ can apply to commercial real estate investing, too.

From John Johnson, CCIM - Atlanta, GA
Q: What does it mean to buy the properties in “as is” condition?
A: Buyers purchase the properties with no guarantees in regard to the condition of the properties. Buyers shall rely entirely on their own information, judgment, and their own inspection of the properties.
Q: Is there additional information on auction properties?
A: Property Information Packages are available through the web site (www.svnpmi.com) and help the interested bidders begin their due diligence process. Often they include terms, deeds, general information, tax maps, assessor’s cards, Purchase & Sale Agreements, etc.
