Peak 1031 Exchange Inc.s First Quarter Analysis of Southern California Real Estate Activity Reveals Spike in Small Investor and Single Family Rental Transactions

Tuesday, May 28th, 2013


Woodland Hills, CA (PRWEB) May 23, 2013

First quarter analysis of regional trends in the industry indicates a significant increase in small investors favoring the 1031 exchange process as a means to defer capital gains taxes, states Kevin M. Levine, Executive Vice President of Peak 1031 Exchange Inc. (http://www.peakexchange.com). As Bush-era tax cuts ended at the beginning of 2013, we had anticipated a slowdown in activity as a result of heavy investor transactions at the end of 2012 to beat the deadline. To the contrary, our first quarter transaction volume shows a significant spike in 1031 exchange activity, especially among investors with strong positions in single-family residential income property.

Recent data affirms strong small investor activity in Peak 1031 Exchange Inc.s core Southern California market, with all-cash buyers in February alone accounting for 31.4 percent of the Southland homes sold, and 30.6 percent in March of this year. Despite strong acquisitions from REITs, institutional investors, and larger asset management firms in single-family properties for rental purposes, Levine comments, investors with much smaller portfolios found room to successfully participate in the market as well. Weve observed that many of the smaller investor shops utilized the Delayed Exchange in 2013 to quickly capture opportunities in an extremely competitive environment. The Delayed Exchange allows for the sale of an existing property, in which the funds are placed in a binding trust for up to 180 days while the seller identifies a similar property for acquisition and is allowed to defer capital gains taxes on the transaction. While analysts projected a slowdown in activity, Levine continues, our client base was extremely active in identifying single-family rental opportunities and leveraging their existing properties to seize on opportunities that would not be available later in the year.

Tight inventories in single family housing are causing a spike in values felt across the housing industry that could limit small investor participation, and Levine believes that those investors chose to act quickly on opportunities in light of the dwindling supply. We work with a savvy, nimble investor clientele that understood that the 1031 Exchange process could assist in mitigating severe tax liabilities as a result of the sunset of Bush era tax cuts, but concedes it could be a more difficult time ahead given the lack of single-family product available right now. However, Levines team has been working closely with investors and exploring the Reverse Exchange option. When the right investment opportunity does present itself to investors with access to available capital, states Levine, the assistance of a qualified intermediary can help them acquire the property immediately with 180 days to sell a similar property already a part of their portfolio. We anticipate being able to benefit this sector of the market with tax deferment strategies, regardless of the limitations of inventory.

Peak 1031 Exchange, Inc. is a leading national provider of tax-deferred 1031 exchange services, specializing in all like-kind transactions including Simultaneous, Delayed, Reverse, Improvement and Personal Property exchanges. It is part of the Peak Corporate Network (http://www.peakcorp.com), a brand representing a group of entities providing a comprehensive array of commercial and retail real estate services nationwide including mortgage lending, loan servicing, short sale services, foreclosure services, insurance, real estate brokerage and escrow services.







New Hotel Developments in NYC by Hospitality Investments, Latest Hotel transactions and Hotels for Sale in New York City

Wednesday, February 27th, 2013


New York, NY (PRWEB) February 25, 2013

Hospitality Investments & Developments NYC’s premier hotel development company, is a leading resource for all the most recent transactions in the city’s hotel sector. The second day of the New Year saw the sale of two prestigious New York City hotels. The 203-room Alex Hotel at 205 East 45th Street was sold to Wyndham Worldwide Corporation for $ 115,000,000 ($ 566,502 per room). The sellers were the Rockpoint Group, Atlas Capital Group, and the Procaccianti Group. The same group of sellers sold the 289-room Flatotel for $ 180,000,000 ($ 622,837 per room) to the Chetrit Group, David Bistricer. This well-known property is expected to be transformed into upscale residential condominiums and be ready for market by June 2014.

Also, Hospitality Investments notes that InterContinental Hotels Group PLC has just announced its intent to proceed with the already-planned sale of its 87-year old flagship hotel New York Barclay (as well as its InterContinental Park Lane property in London). The group has resurrected its plan for sale based on a recovering market. Hospitality Investments explains how an increase in corporate travel and renewed interest in flagship real estate is being fuelled by sovereign wealth funds and overseas investors in search of good returns and trophy properties. According to IHG, optimum market conditions are now a reality in hotel development. The New York Barclay should sell for about $ 350,000,000

“Although NYC hotels are popular with avid investors, these lodging properties also attract crowds of regular tourists and corporate clients,” says Hospitality Investments and Developments.

During 2013, travelers to New York City will have a choice of even more affordable hospitality options. Before the end of this year, 18 mid-range hotels (3,100 rooms) are planned to open in New York City. In March, the city will see its first-ever Best Western Premier. On January 31, a Holiday Inn Express hotel opened just steps away from the Best Western, Hyatt Place, the chain’s first Manhattan property, will open on February 21 in the same location right next to the city’s latest Best Western.

The Jade Hotel in Greenwich Village / Meatpacking district opened this month.

Manhattan hotel occupancy is expected to reach a rate of at least 85% in 2013.

“During this Manhattan hotel boom, developers are now finding it easier to get construction financing,” explains Hospitality Investments.

Hilton’s next mid-price hotel, the Hampton Inn Manhattan/United Nations at 231 E. 43rd St., will start accepting guests on February 27. Marriott International plans to open six lodging properties this year (four Courtyards by Marriott, a SpringHill Suites, and a Residence Inn). Opening in November, the 68-storey combination Courtyard by Marriott and Residence Inn Manhattan/Central Park being developed at 1717 Broadway – 54th Street will become New York City’s tallest hotel.

According to Hospitality Investments and Developments,” the New York City hospitality industry is growing at record speed.”

Hospitality Investments and Developments notes how hotel transaction activity so far in 2013 compares to 2012 and 2011 statistics. The New York City hospitality sector declined greatly during 2012. A PropertyShark.com report indicated a 30% fall (just 31 deals) in hotel transactions last year. Sales volume and median price declined considerably during 2012 compared to 2011. Last year’s sales volume came in at $ 1.6 billion closed sales – a 58% decline compared to $ 3.8 billion in sales in 2011.

The significant fall in median sale price and median sale price per room shows the decline in the 2012 hotel sector. Last year, the median sale price was down 78% from 2011. The median sale price per room fell 32% – about $ 100,000 – from $ 287,000 in 2011 to $ 194,000 in 2012.

In Brooklyn, however, the median sale prices per room doubled to a record value of $ 190,000 in 2012 compared to 2011. Brooklyn prices almost equaled Manhattan prices. Yet Manhattan still led with activity and guest rooms selling for an average of $ 200,000 although hotel rooms in the borough went for around $ 384,000 in 2011. Just like Manhattan, Queens saw a considerable decline in the median sale price ($ 38,000) in 2012 compared to 2011 prices ($ 75,000). Brooklyn stood out among other New York City boroughs with its rise in hotel activity.
