Weak Office Building Market
Shows Only Modest Improvement
For the second year in a row, total rent
collections in the suburban office market
dropped by about 1.7 percent, according to
the study. This was due to decreases in
virtually all potential income sources--in-
cluding parking, retail, and pass-lhroughs--
plus an 8.7 percent spike in vacancies and
delinquent rents.
Central business district properties
experienced similar income drops. Total
collections were down 2.7 percent, to SI2.61
per square feet (from last year’s S12.96).

As part of a nationwide fundraising ef
fort this fall. Realtors from 130 Better Homes
and Gardens Real Estate Service member
firms participated in the first annual ‘ ‘Great
American V ard Sale,” which raised $175,000
to aid the foundation in its efforts to help
homeless families. Donations from concerned
readers of Better Home and Gardens Maga
zine also contributed S1 million to the foun
dation. With these donations, the foundation
has funded programs in 18 cities and towns
throughout America, ranging from support
for a social worker who counsels sheltered
families in Idaho to support for a medical van
that brings medical services to homeless
children in Massachusetts.
Jordan commended Realtors for their
hard work toward finding solutions to “ this
national disgrace” and urged them to con
tinue to support charitable efforts at both
local and national levels.
The National Association of Realtors,
the nation’s largest trade association, is the
voice for real estate, representing nearly
800,000 members in the real estate industry.

cause you don’t see them on tire streets.
They're living in cars, in church basements,
in motels and in shelters, which fill as rapidly
as they open,” said Jordan.
Jordan divided the homeless into three
categories: (1) adult men and women; (2)
teenage runaways and throwaways; and (3)
homeless families.
Jordan said homeless families comprise
the fastest growing segment of the homeless
population. He explained that The Better
Homes Foundation, under the direction of its
president, Ellen L. Bassuk, M.D., associate
professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical
School, works exclusively to help homeless
families.
The session also explored the larger
issues of family dysfunction, drug and alco
hol abuse, physical abuse, joblessness and
general bad luck, which so often contribute
to the demise of the family unit.
“ Shelter is not enough,” Jordan said.
“ Comprehensive support services must be
provided to meet the complex needs of our
nation’s homeless families.”

DALLAS--Thc growing complexity of
family homelessness was discussed at a wTap-
up session of the Board Leadership Forum of
the National Association of Realtors during
its 1989 Annual Convention and Trade
Exposition here today.
David Jordan, editor-in-chief of Better
Homes and Gardens magazine and chairman
of the board of The Better Homes Founda
tion, a separate non-profit organization,
explained the changing face of homeless
ness.
“ The typical image of the homeless
person as an adult male, sleeping on a grate,
abusing drugs or alcohol is changing,” Jor
dan said. “ Today’s homeless could be our
grandchildren.”
Jordan noted that while estimates vary,
there may be as many as 3 million homeless
persons in America, of which approximately
one third are homeless families. These fami
lies contain between 500,000 and 750,000
children, half of whom are under the age of
five.

Realtors Look At Growing National Dilemma: Family Homelessness
of operating a building to S5.96 per square
foot (from S5.83). The largest increases
were in benefits and administrative costs
(5.3 percent) and utilities (3.3 percent).
Maintenance and utilities accounted
for more than half a typical property’s total
operating costs, at 26.2 percent each, while
taxes consumed 21.3 percent of total ex
penses.
The Income/Expense Analysis breaks
down office building income and expense
figures into several categories, including
property age, type, and size. Regional data
is also included.
The study is a handy resource for prop
erty owners, investors, managers, develop
ers, appraisers, syndicators, lenders, and
other real estate professionals.

The biggest contributing factor here was a
hefty 14.6 percent increase in vacancies
and delinquent rents.
In both office markets, however, rising
income from miscellaneous sources was
able to cushion some of the blow. M iscel
laneous income jumped 16.7 percent for
suburban properties and 11 percent down
town.
Suburban net operating costs stayed
relatively stable, growing only 0.7 percent
to S4.13 per square foot. Small hikes in
utilities (1.4 percent) and insurance costs (2
percent) were reported. Utilities continued
to make up the largest portion of total
operating costs (28.4 percent), followed by
maintenance (23.8 percent).
For downtown properties, net expenses
climbed 1.5 percent, pushing the total cost

Squeezed by falling rents, stubborn
vacancies, rent delinquencies, and rising
operating costs, office building owners'
income fell in 1988, continuing the previ
ous year’s downw ard trend However, healthy
increases in miscellaneous income helped
minimize the negative effects.
This is reported in the new 1989 edition
of the Income/Expense Analysis: Office
Buildings, an annual research study pub
lished by the Institute of Real Estate Man
agement (IREM). The survey analyzes
operating income and cost figures for over
3,400 U.S. and Canadian office buildings,
totaling over 460 million square feet of
space.
As in last year’s survey, suburban of
fice buildings felt the pinch most. Suburban
rents were 4.3 percent lower than for down
town properties. Loss of potential income
due to vacancy and delinquent rents was a
staggering 39 percent higher in the suburbs,
while total rent collections trailed down
town projects by 12 percent.
But the cost of operating suburban offices
was lower--by 11 percent--than for down
town properties. The biggest difference was
in the dramatically lower maintenance and
repair costs for suburban properties (SI .26
per square foot, compared to $1.56 for
downtown).
