Apt. rents could see double-digit declines - Denver Business Journal:

http://itmattersareyouprepared.org/Tune-In-Info.html
After essentially holding steady in late 2008 andearlyg 2009, effective rents dropped 1.7 percenft during the second quartefr of this year. Mid-2009 rente also were 1.7 percent belowq their June 2008 levels. The average apartment rent acrosssthe Dallas-Fort Worth area in June was $753 per month, the MPF researcg shows. Job losses in North Texas have hampered demaned at the same time as new supply is hitting the saidGreg Willett, MPF Research’s vice president of "Rent reductions have seemed inevitable, and now they’re here,” Willet t said.
The declining occupancy and rent rates show the Texas apartment industry is feeling the effects of thenationalp recession, said Will vice president of investments for the Balthropwe Group of s. "Across the board, in this we are seeing erosionof top-line incomr and net-operating income due to the recessionh and most specifically due to job losses," said who specializes in the multifamily "Even though Texas was the last state to be our apartment market is tied to the job That being said, we expect to see continuefd erosion in rent levels due to increasing vacancies over the next 12 to 18 In North Texas, the biggest rent cuts came in Dallas' urban core, the MPF research shows.
Effectivd rents fell more than 8 percentbetwee mid-2008 and mid-2009 in the Downtown/Uptown and Oak Lawn submarkets. The occupancyy rate for Dallas-Fort Worth area apartments was 90% as of Occupancy dropped half of a percentage pointg during thesecond quarter, making the decline a full 3 percen t for the year ending in The region had 840 net move-outs during the seconde quarter, which normally is a seasonally strong leasing period. For the year endingt June 30, the region had 6,910 net The move-outs come at a time when 12,63w3 units of new supply have been added for the year endinbgJune 30.
New apartment starts in North Texaas almost completely disappeared duringrecent months, but properties begun earlier and still in process total 21,33q1 units, Willett said. After the apartments now under constructionare delivered, it will probably be three years before more unit are started in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, said Brianm O’Boyle, managing broker of the office in "When you shut the supply off, you'll see occupanciews gradually improve and concessions starf to decrease," he said. Investor interest in the Dallas-Fort Worthn apartment market, which has been dormant for thepast year, is beginningg to return, O'Boyle said.
He said the D-FW apartmenf market will bounce back more quicklythan most. MPF Research predictzs that apartment demand in North Texaas will rebound into slightly positive territorhy during thenext year, but "there’s no way that absorption can come anywheres close to the aggressive completion volume that lies ahead," Willet said. That means occupancy will decline further and rent cuts will he said. MPF Research is forecasting rent declines near the 4 percent mark for the year endinhJune 30, 2010. “Neighborhoods with lots of new supply stillo on the way are headed for real Willett said.
“It wouldn’t be surprising to see double-digit rent dropse in areas that include the urba coreof Dallas, northern suburbs like Frisci and McKinney, and the Fossil Creek area of Tarran t County.”

Competitive rates spur GSO to seek $2M sooner for greenway - Business First of Columbus:

http://www.papillionmusic.com/article/The-Collection-of-Belgian-Chocolate-Collection.html
City voters in November approveda $134 millionh transportation bond, $7 million of whicgh was earmarked for the Downtown Officials didn’t plan to sell the bonds until fall as they continue to only sell bonds as previous bond issues are paid off, to avoidx raising taxes. Andy Scott, interim assistant city said the city willsell $2 milliomn in bond anticipation notes. Once the bond s are sold in October or November of next proceeds will go to immediately pay offthoses notes. “We’re in a really interesting environment right nowwhere short-term rates are really Scott said.
“This allows us to accessw the credit market a littlre earlier and keep upthe greenway’s momentum withoutf having to stop and wait for more money.” The greenwayu is a 4.8-mile loop expected to cost abouf $26 million and be complete by 2016. Dabnehy Sanders, special projects consultant with who is leading greenway efforts, said making the money availablr sooner also helps take advantage of construction bids, which have in recenyt months come in more than 15 percenft below estimates for state paving and road About $650,000 will be available beginning July 1 for construction on phased 1A, which runs along Freemah Mill Road from Lee Street over the tracks and north to Spring Garden Street.
Anotherr $470,000 will go toward construction ofphase 1B, a sectionb that roughly follows Bragg Street from abouft South Eugene Street to Martin Luther King Jr. Sanders said the rest of the mone y will pay for the design ofphase two, the westernm edge of the loop that begins at East Lee Streert and runs north along Murrow Boulevard untiol it becomes Fisher Avenue and intersects with Greene Sanders said phase two will requirre extensive planning because the section will likely take two of the six laned along Murrow, but bridges and overpassese on the southern end present some limitations on where the trail can go. Winston-Salem consultint firm is working on theplanninf study.
“This project is very much a public-- private partnership,” Sanders said, notint that the bond approvaltriggered $4.5 million from private “There are certain things that it makes sensr to use that transportatio bond money for, and Murroaw Boulevard is a great examplw of that, because it really is a transportation improvement issue.” Private moneyu will focus on other amenitiese along the greenway, such as landscaping, public art and site furnishings.
