“For It Is in Giving That We Receive.”
An inspirational prayer I have always revered is the Prayer of Saint Francis Assisi, first published in 1912. The prayer contains the following passage: “[F}or it is in giving that we receive.”
This passage reminds me of and reinforces my mantra of giving to others and helping my community. My time as an elected official, with Scouting of America, and with AAOC has proven to be—time and time again—spiritually enriching, not to mention professionally valuable and personally fulfilling.
Through my service to AAOC over the years, as a committee member and board member, including terms as Treasurer and President, I have been rewarded not only with a sense of fulfilling accomplishment but also with many lifelong friendships. One such friendship started in the 1990s when I met James “Jim” McClung of American Environmental Specialists, while dealing with a severe mold issue in one of
my apartments. As the years have progressed, Jim has continued to embody commitment to our community. I was humbled when he recently recommended me for a trustee position for the Northern California Scholarship Foundation, which assists deserving students and their families with financial aid for their college careers.
My intent in sharing this with you is to encourage you to further engage by fully exercising the benefits of your AAOC membership. Be sure to partake in the numerous educational seminars and membership events designed to connect you with like-minded members, whose livelihoods are also centered on the rental housing industry. You may even consider contacting me or our executive director, David Cordero, to serve on a committee, where everyone can benefit from your unique experience and specialized knowledge.
Committee service is an excellent opportunity to contribute your time and talent in support of AAOC, get to know and work closely with other owners, property managers, and supplier members, learn more about the association, and develop as an association and industry leader.
The AAOC Education Committee guides the development, marketing, and delivery of educational programming for the benefit and growth of the AAOC membership, and the advancement of the rental-housing industry. It also helps develop a bench of experienced, competent instructors for the classes,

workshops, and certification courses offered by AAOC.
The AAOC Legislative Committee reviews and discusses proposed legislation and assists in shaping the association’s legislative priorities and positions on local and state policy issues that affect the rental-housing industry. The committee is responsible for establishing recommended association positions for the consideration of the AAOC Board of Directors.
The AAOC Membership Committee assists in the association’s membership development and retention efforts, discussing these matters, membership trends, and how to meet the evolving needs of rental-housing providers.
The AAOC Events Committee assists in the development of special events throughout the year, that facilitate networking and business development between the association’s supplier and owner/operator members.
With confidence, I assure you that by giving your time and talents through committee service or by volunteering in some other manner, you will receive far more than you could have ever imagined.
Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,

John Tomlinson

Numerous Bills are Based on One Example
Yes, you read that correctly.
Recently, Jinah Kim moved to Ventura County for her son to attend a local high school. “Everything was fine until I asked [the homeowner association to approve] the removal obvious defect in my home when I was going through the renovation process in November,” the homeowner stated. They discovered a defect in the home that blocked the top of a doorway inside the dwelling. Upon discovery, the homeowner submitted a petition to the homeowner association board and its architectural committee. Those two entities quickly replied, “No, you cannot…” remove it and correct the problem. She instructed the contractor to proceed away. The HOA quickly responded and presented her with a $100 fine which she paid. The HOA followed up, however, and threatened her with a much larger fine of up to $500 per day if she did not restore the doorway back to its original condition.
This issue was widely publicized, and one state legislator amended their bill at the very end of its legislative course to cap HOA fines to $100 per violation—a reform whose purpose is to temper all HOA penalties.
And just in case you were curious as to the location of the doorway. Kim reports and documents that the doorway is within the interior walls of Kim’s home, “where no one else can see it.”
The HOA message to Kim: “If these issues are not resolved by July 10, 2025. The board reserves the right to con-
sider them as continuing violations, which may incur fines of up to $500 per day per violation in accordance with the association’s fine schedule.”
Kim’s response, “A $500 per day fine for removing a block in my doorway is the definition of heavy-handed. The way that they want to just put their (HOA board of directors) foot down and say, ‘We are the HOA, we told you not to do it and you did it, so we’re gonna (sp) fine you until you listen to us.’”
HOA’s cried out and observed that the caps may weaken enforcement.
Proponents on the other hand stated that reform was needed to control overreaching HOAs.
Anyone who owns a property in a HOA clearly knows that boards of directors can get a little ahead of their skis. And now, corrective legislation quickly passed and was signed by the Governor.
Again, one inadvertent misstep or an irresponsible “bad act” can result in remarkable consequences for the rental housing industry. One residential property owner that did not properly serve a summons has caused numerous statutory reforms. An owner that did not respond quickly enough to a complaint about a leaky toilet must now—along with other owners—respond to a tenant’s service complaint within 48 hours. Property owners that have “banked” increases in monthly rents now face the reality that they cannot do that any longer, or in the case of one local government’s law, now face limits on banking rents. Limits on banking rents have

more adverse consequences to tenants than anything. Kind acts of helping tenants have disappeared when it comes to rental increases.
Another issue, among many I might add, is SB 658. The bill would require Los Angeles County to develop a process for specified non-profit and governmental organizations to notify the County of their interest in purchasing real property impacted by the Eaton and Palisades Fires. Once the owner of property impacted by the fires sends a notice of the owner’s intent to sell the property, the County would be required to maintain a seller’s database, and non-profit developers in the state, community land trusts and other governmental agencies would receive notifications whereby those entities would have first right of refusal to purchase. Of course, there is no timeline for which those entities would be required to perform, the entities would not be required to show financial ability to purchase and, for that matter, those entities could be barred from increasing rents of newly built or substantially remodeled dwellings.
The list of issues is long and unresolved.

ORANGE COUNTY LEGISLATIVE WATCH
The Intel You Need— That You’re Not Getting
We often wonder how to get the best intel on what the government is thinking about doing to the multi-family industry so that we may better prepare for what is to come. The truth is what is happening in those circles is easier to determine than you think. The key is knowing where to start.
First Step—Sign Up for Updates
This step is the easiest. Sign up for newsletters and updates. Each of the cities where you own or operate rentals has newsletters, announcements, council agendas, magazines, etc. On top of that, the local elected officials, along with the county supervisors, state legislators, and Congressional representatives who representative those cities also have newsletters and other communications that they regularly send out, which you can usually sign up for on their website.
If you need to know who the elected officials who represent you where you live as well as where you own or operate rental property, you can find them on the AAOC website at https://www. aaoc.com/your-elected-officials.
Now, for the real tip…you don’t need to read them all. Have an AI model summarize it for you and ask it to look for key words such as: Multi-family code enforcement, rental registry, rent control, tenants’ rights, and just cause eviction…then expand on your experience and add more terms as they come up—wherever you hear that “buzz word” add it to all of the agendas and
newsletters. If you need some ideas about how to do this, give us a call and we can walk you through it.
Bonus tip: Capture all of the elected officials’ social media feeds as well, and tell your AI to search their history of your posts.
Second Step—Join, Attend, Lead
Community leaders come from community involvement. Community involvement comes from being a part of the committees, commissions, events, and organizations that support that city. The key here is that all of these organizations need and want help.
You’re already a part of the Apartment Association of Orange County—and that’s a start.
Third Step—Learn and Interact
You will naturally learn about the issues that affect you the most simply by going through the previous steps. Along the way you will also identify different resources that will aid your understanding of issues. Keep with that—it will strengthen your command of the issues, opposition arguments, and why your suggestions are the most logical solutions to pursue.
The next piece to learn is who handles what for your issues.
Federal legislation, policy issues and departments are handled by your U.S. Senators and Representatives (Congress). Examples being HUD, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Agriculture

(Farm bureau loans), Department of Justice, Treasury, etc.
The legislation on the federal level begins with HR (House Resolution) or S (Senate Bill) followed by a number and an author.
State legislation, policy issues and departments are handled by your State Senators and State Assemblymembers. Examples being Department of Labor, Department of Real Estate, Department of Insurance, etc.
The legislation on the state level generally begins with AB (Assembly Bill) or SB (Senate Bill) followed by a number and an author. That tells you which house the legislation started in, and who authored the bill. There are other acronyms you may encounter such as ACA (Assembly Constitutional Amendment) and others which we will generally explain in our communications with you.
Local legislation, policy issues and departments are handled by your county supervisors or city council members. Examples being code enforcement, police and fire inspections, street regulations and repairs, graffiti abatement, etc. Sometimes there are housing departments within these municipal governments as well.
Interacting
Interacting is where people start to get cold feet. It is an unfamiliar act for many, but truthfully, it is much easier than


you’re making it out in your own mind.
Start Slowly
AAOC and any other organization you are interested in working with will send out detailed instructions on what to do when they have a call for action— but to be honest they try to make it as easy as possible with pre-written emails, scripts, and links to contact the right elected officials. Sometimes it’s as easy as clicking a link and hitting send.
You can take it up from there—consider adding personal examples and perspectives to the emails which will make them more personal and relatable. Provide some stats and figures about how these issues have affected you, customize the pre-written emails to include the original intended message—but in your words. Get familiar with communicating your beliefs.
Then, once you have sent your emails, consider calling the elected offi-

cials directly. We will often include phone numbers to the elected officials’ offices for you to call and deliver your message on policies of importance.
Use the same script or details provided and deliver the key points of the message—what the issue is, what your position is, and why you have that position.
Keep it simple, to the point, and direct. You’ll understand why when you consider your audience.
Know Your Audience
Here’s a little secret. The person reading your emails or answering the phone is looking to give the top-line information to the elected officials. Because you are not the only person calling in about issues. But the people who call in are the ones who are often heard fastest.
So, there is no reason to be nervous when you call them. They tend to not know every issue, so they are relying on your input to inform the elected officials.

You can simply say ,“Hi, my name is _______ and I am a constituent calling to register my position on ________ (insert issue)…” And that is honestly enough.
Should you desire, provide a little color—same as the details in the email you send. Make the issue understandable to someone unfamiliar with the issue so they can see how it affects people.
When You’re Ready, Take the Wheel
Here’s the thing. Elected officials are just people—no different than you or I. They’re making their way through this just like you and I. So, remember that when you think about how you address them.
Now, reach out to them—ask them to coffee, tell them you want to pick their brains on an issue. Get to know them as people. Maybe start with a city council member (they are easier to connect with) but eventually get to

Questions & Answers
I have an apartment rented to two young men for the last three years. Recently, one approached me and asked how I felt about him getting a roommate. He never mentioned the other tenant leaving, so I assume they simply want to reduce their portion of rent by bringing in another person. It’s a large unit and, to be candid, I don’t really mind, but…the building falls under AB 1482 (The Tenant Protection Act of 2019) and I am a little concerned about creating a perpetual tenancy with revolving roommates that prevents me from going to market rent down the line. Is there a way I can prevent that from happening, while allowing them to take in a roommate?
The short answer is “yes”. However, this is an area in which you should be careful to avoid creating a tenancy with the new roommate. If you agree to allowing a new roommate, be sure to reserve your right to increase rents to market rate in a written document (e.g., a roommate agreement or addendum) signed by both your existing tenants and the roommate. Be sure the agreement includes a statement to the effect that you, the landlord, reserve your right to increase the rent when the last of the original tenants moves out. Moreover, be sure you don’t accidentally create a tenancy with the roommate by adding them to the lease, calling them a “tenant” in writing, or accepting any rent from them. The roommate should pay the original tenants any rent he or she owes, and your tenants should pay you, just as the lease
agreement states. In the absence of these precautions, you may not be able to raise the rent when the original tenant leaves.
I have several rental properties that have always remained at a “zero” vacancy rate. My husband passed away a couple of years ago, and I am now considering renting a bedroom in my house to another woman for some company. I would like to run an add and state that I am only open to renting to a female, but a friend of mine told me I could get myself into trouble by doing so. She said I am not allowed to discriminate based on gender, but I could have sworn I’ve heard you tell people at your seminars that I am allowed to do that in this situation. Can you clarify whether or not I can run an add stating only women should apply?
Your hearing is great! You have heard me say that, and I stand by it. While gender is one of California’s many protected classes and, in most situations, running such an ad would, indeed, get you in trouble, in this particular situation, state housing laws make housing preferences perfectly legal as long as there is only one boarder. Moreover, the legislature amended the state Fair Employment and Housing Law to state that advertisements for a boarder who is a specific sex are not considered a discriminatory act. Surprisingly, the Federal law has a similar provision. Nonetheless, it is important to under-
stand that while “sex/gender” preferences may not constitute discrimination in single boarder situations, all other protected categories remain in place, so draft your advertisement carefully to avoid accidentally limiting the other protected categories from applying.
I really hope I am wrong about this, but I just heard that a new law will require me to provide and maintain stoves and refrigerators to my tenants. Is that true?
Well…it might be. We will have to wait and see.
California’s AB 628, if passed, will modify the definition of “habitability” to mandate a stove and refrigerator for all leases entered into, amended, or extended on or after January 1, 2026. Additionally, to be a “habitable” unit, the appliances must be maintained in good working order, capable of safely generating heat for cooking purposes and safely storing food. Furthermore, the landlord will be required to repair or replace any appliance subject to recall by the manufacturer or public entity within 30 days of receiving the recall notice. Luckily, the parties to the lease can agree at the inception of agreement that the tenant will provide and/or maintain their own refrigerator, (but not the stove—the landlord will remain responsible for that). September 12 is the last day for the legislators to pass their bills, then the governor has until October 12 to either sign or veto
them, so stay tuned.
I recently heard from another landlord in Los Angeles County that the County Supervisors up there just passed a new law that requires landlords to install the necessary equipment to maintain an interior temperature of 82° in their apartments. He also mentioned that he thinks the state of California is going to pass the same law, making every landlord in the state responsible to prevent temperatures in their rental units from going past 82°. Is California really considering that? If so, will I need to install a/c units in my Huntington Beach 4-plex?
It is true that Los Angeles County passed a new indoor air temperature mandate requiring ALL rental housing providers to maintain 82 degrees Fahrenheit or cooler for all “Habitable” rooms in the rental unit. So, what is a “Habitable Room”? Any room used for living, sleeping, eating, or cooking. It does NOT include “spaces” like bathrooms, hallways, and storage areas. Maybe more importantly, landlords will be required to allow renters to install window air conditioning units or other cooling devices at the renter’s expense, provided the installation is done according to code, and the tenant must provide their landlords at least five (5) days written notice of their intention to install such window air conditioning units or other cooling devices. However, California has not yet followed suit.
Still, there is a bill (SB 655) that formally declares it to be California’s established policy that all dwelling units are required to be able to attain and maintain a “safe maximum indoor temperature”. However, the phrase “safe maximum indoor temperature” is undefined at the moment.
The bill also directs state agencies to consider this policy when revising or adopting regulations and to implement

programs to address extreme heat risks in residential units. The proposed law is based on the belief that the growing threat of extreme heat and its impact on public health requires agency action and, therefore, it mandates that state agencies and departments incorporate this “safe temperature policy” into their regulations. That is what your friend saw play out in Los Angeles, and what landlords throughout California can anticipate moving forward. However,
nothing has been passed on a state level yet, so, as of now, you are safe.

When it comes to scheduling time with state or federal elected officials, it becomes a little more complicated. Most have websites where you can request a meeting for scheduling. They are often at community events Thursday evening through Sunday, and the rest of the week they are usually at the state or national Capitol when in session. They also publish a calendar on the state legislative and Congressional websites of when they are in session and when they are in district work periods (often referred to as “recess”—but there is no “recess” about it!).
As was mentioned—they’re normal people—free to approach them as such!

DEAR MAINTENANCE MEN


Dear Maintenance Men:
Can you give me a rough outline of a preventive maintenance program?
John
Dear John:
Great question. It is never too late to start a preventive maintenance program. You will find that during this scheduling process many deferred items will rear their ugly heads but stay focused and steadfast on your priorities—“one job at a time.”
Here is a brief list of important items to check/repair/replace before moving on to the preventive/corrective/routine maintenance items.
Smoke/CO Detectors—Make sure your smoke/CO detectors are working and located properly in regard to your units’ bedrooms, halls, living room areas, and most importantly layout.
Plumbing—Inspect all units and take list of supply water leakage at faucets, toilets, etc. to include water instructions, spillage problems at bath walls, floors, etc. Do not fail to inspect wastewater leaks that can damage the building structure. Check proper operation of the water heater recirculation pump operation.
H.V.A.C—Have a licensed and insured
H.V.A.C professional inspect and/or repair non-functional or damaged appliances. Note: Call the gas company to inspect and test for the presence of carbon monoxide.
General Unit Conditions—Make a list of the general unit condition including blinds, carpet paint, counter tops, appliances, door stops, holes in wall, housekeeping, doors, toilet seats, shower doors closet doors, etc. Note: Later at home or office, use multi-colored highlighters to color code priorities in each individual unit as you read through your notes. This will make it easier when consolidating your exterior/interior priority list. Example: Red = Priority 1; Blue = Priority 2; and Yellow = Priority 3.
Fire Extinguishers—For proper amount/ type for units and utilities. Note: Have a licensed/certified fire extinguisher company check charge and location.
Recommendation:
• Before you decide to make repairs or replace broken or damaged items, attempt to determine how they were damaged.
• Check length of tenancy as a guide of normal wear and tear.
• Check current security deposit to determine whether your new investment on repairs to said unit is protected. Example: Long-term tenancy may only have a $200 deposit, but you have $1,400 worth of repairs.
This brief but important list should keep you busy. But it’s a great start.
Dear Maintenance Men:
My building sits on a raised foundation. The other day I happened to find a support post to be in questionable condition. I’d like to replace it. Is this a “Do It Yourself” project or should I call a professional? Michael
Dear Michael:
Your building is supported by what is called “conventional wood floor framing.” This type of framing consists of the following systems beginning from the ground up:
1. Footing
2. Concrete pier block
3. Foundation post
4. Girder
5. Floor joist
Before you make the decision to do it yourself, call a professional to confirm the issue and to check for unseen damage. It is best to be informed about what exactly you are about to tackle.
Call a professional to estimate the cost of replacement and have them describe the procedure and method of replacement. If in doubt about your ability to perform the work, leave it to the professional.
Now, if you’re up to the task, use the following safety procedure before you start the work.
• Understand that the foundation post supports a considerable amount of
load—the dwelling and everything in it.
• It is extremely important to have another person at the exterior in case of emergency.
• Proper lighting
• Eye protection (you will most likely be looking up)
• Dust masks, gloves, etc.
• Use two (2), three-ton hydraulic jacks for temp shoring of girders, placed approximately 2 feet on either side of the pier block.
Now, follow this simple procedure.
1. Choose a pier block that has straps that your new foundation post will be secured to
2. Measure the length of your new pier block and calculate the distance from new pier block to girder. Cut the foundation post to fit snug between your new pier block and girder.
3. Using a foundation post to girder T-strap, nail and bolt your T-strap connecting your foundation post to the girder.
Tools Required:
• Circular saw
• Hammer
• 5lbs. Sledge (for minor forcing foundation post between girder and pier block)
• Chisel
• (2) 3-ton hydraulic jacks

Dear Maintenance Men:
I have a nine-unit apartment building with a 100-gallon water heater that serves all the residents. The problem is that only the nearest units to the water heater get hot water. The units at the other end of the building must wait
longer to get hot water. The heater seems to be working and producing hot water. How do I solve this dilemma? David
Dear David:
Sounds like your circulation pump is not working properly. Calcium or hard water deposits in the water heater and lines may also aggravate this problem. The circulation pump’s job is to bring hot water to all the units at the same time. When the pump is not working
or is clogged, the hot water will take much longer to get to the units that are furthest away from the heater.
The first step is to determine if the pump is working. Locate the pump near the water heater, check that the motor is plugged into an electrical outlet.
Next, touch the water lines on either side of the pump and determine the temperature. If it is working properly,

Thinking of Buying or Selling? Think Long Term
“Only
When I first started in real estate over 20 years ago now, I remember one of my first sales managers responding to the question, “is it a good time to buy?” “Always,” he would say. The response was cringey and admittedly, I felt it was flaky and insincere. Sure, his livelihood depended on it, but it was more the presentation than the actual substance of the statement. Why? Well, because there are always opportunities and you can always find value—in any market. Sure, the fundamentals may be better or worse depending on the markets and the economy, but if you follow the market and know what you are looking for,
you are better able to identify these opportunities when they do present themselves.
Last month, I shared my own view that now is not a good time to sell. Sure, rates are not bad, though not at prior lows, and rents are still on the rise and this dynamic has really been what’s held investment property values up. But inflation is real and rising costs for things like insurance and other large capital items are impacting buyer underwriting. When confronted with pro-forma expenses in today’s market and the impact on their potential net proceeds, discretionary sellers are rightly choosing to hold off. What this means is that, with the exception of the occasional irrational or unrealistic seller, we tend to see two types of sellers active today: forced sellers and opportunistic sellers.


Buyers who think it’s the great recession and sellers who think it’s 2021 are neither buyers nor sellers. They’re dreamers. But buyers who can quickly identify value and understand how to quickly and effectively implement their business plan at a property are finding opportunities in markets like today. Focus first on cost metrics, then look at return metrics, and understand what it will cost to get to where you need to be from a rent and return perspective. Is it worth it?
In contrast to my former sales manager, Warren Buffet once said, “I never have an opinion about the market because it wouldn’t be any good, and it might
interfere with the opinions we have that are good.” This is the right approach for investments of any kind. Rather than try to maneuver or manipulate conditions over which you have no control, just focus and think long-term. Do your research and think less about timing the market and more about understanding the opportunities available in the marketplace. As an operator, it’s about understanding your rents and what you can charge; your expenses and what it will cost to operate the property. What can you do or accomplish with a particular asset that someone else could not or would not?
Investments of any kind, not just real estate, are subjective and speculative. So, identify current opportunities, project for the future, and think long-term. But first, understand your secret sauce or that of your partners to determine whether the investment you are considering is right for you. This will help get you past your perception that there’s no opportunity in today’s market and better understand how you can maximize the opportunities that you do find.

Estate & Legacy Planning Q&A Series
Legacy Planning: Traits for Success & Red Flags to Heed
As I reflect on my years of experience in legacy and estate planning, I’ve come to learn a lot about the intricacies of legacy planning. By contrast, traditional estate planning is about assets and taxes, important for every family with a net worth over $209,000 or anyone owning real estate in California to avoid probate. But legacy planning is far more intricate. It is beyond the assets, and into the more emotional and intangible
FIDE MORTGAGE
aspect of your life. It requires communication, careful thought, and an understanding of what wealth represents beyond financial value.
I’ve recently had an epiphany; legacy planning might not be the best path for every family! As painful as it may be, a lack of communication and a more secretive approach to an estate plan could be the best route for some families. The heart of legacy planning is communication and sharing—sharing of values, plans, and desires. It works best for families that are ready for it, those that possess emotional maturity, shared values, and the communication skills necessary to make it successful. For others, the process could backfire, deepening existing rifts instead of strengthening familial bonds.


In this article, I want to share some of the key traits that make legacy planning a good fit, as well as the red flags to watch for. These insights have been shaped by my own experiences and by working closely with families navigating these decisions. The goal is to help you assess whether legacy planning is right for you and your family, and if so, how to approach it thoughtfully.
For Heirs: Traits That Support a Successful Legacy Plan
Humility & Gratitude: Inheritance is not a right; it’s a gift—built over a lifetime of work and sacrifice. An heir who views inheritance as compensation or entitlement is a red flag. Grateful heirs recognize the effort that went into creating and

maintaining the estate, and they approach it with respect and appreciation.
Respect for the Grantor’s
Life and Wishes: Assets come with history, love, and effort. They are not just financial vehicles—they are someone’s life achievement. Heirs who dismiss the grantor’s intentions or emotional attachment to assets create friction that could undermine the family’s legacy.
Empathy Toward Siblings and Co-Heirs: Everyone’s view feels valid to them. Success in legacy planning depends on finding common ground, listening to others, and respecting their perspectives. Inflexibility, personal scorekeeping, or ongoing resentment between siblings can create lasting harm to relationships and the family’s legacy.
Ability to Compromise and Collaborate: Joint ownership of assets requires a mindset of shared stewardship. It’s a business partnership that needs structure and cooperation. Resistance to shared responsibility or collaboration on decision-making is a major red flag, signaling a lack of commitment to managing the estate in the best interests of the family.
Self-Awareness: Being honest with yourself about your emotional, financial, and logistical capacity to participate in coownership is crucial. Saying “yes” out of obligation, guilt, or expectation without understanding what’s involved will only

lead to dissatisfaction and resentment.
For Grantors: Traits That Support a Thoughtful Legacy Plan
Realism About Your Heirs: Your children are not perfect reflections of your dreams. They are individuals with their own values, goals, and limitations. Legacy planning requires a realistic understanding of who your heirs are, not who you hope they will be. Designing a plan based on idealized versions of your children rather than their true nature is a recipe for disappointment.
Clarity and Consistency: A clear and consistent plan is crucial to reduce confusion and potential conflict. If your estate plan contains mixed messages or changes frequently, it can lead to suspicion and doubt among your heirs. Frequent revisions or emotional decision-making under stress can create unnecessary confusion. It’s important to communicate your intentions clearly and consistently.
Fairness, Not Necessarily Equality: Equity may mean different treatment based on need, contribution, or past arrangements, but this must be wellcommunicated and understood by all involved. Assigning unequal distributions without clear explanation or written context can cause friction and resentment among heirs. Transparency and communication are essential to ensure that everyone understands the reasoning behind decisions.
Avoid Assigning Emotional Value Without Flexibility: While you may have strong emotional attachments to specific assets, your heirs may not value them in the same way. This doesn’t mean they’re ungrateful—it simply means they are being honest. Expecting your heirs to feel the same emotional connection to your home or business without open conversations about these assets will set you up for disappointment. Be prepared to listen and under-
stand their perspectives.
Understanding the Burden of Joint Assets: Gifting property or business interests creates a partnership between family members. This requires structure, governance, and a commitment to making decisions together. Assuming love alone will make joint ownership work without a formal structure is an unrealistic assumption. Be sure to outline clear guidelines for decision-making and governance before transferring assets.
The bottom line is legacy planning is about more than just passing on wealth; it’s about creating a meaningful transition of values and assets. It requires maturity, emotional intelligence, and the ability to communicate effectively with family members. If a family isn’t ready for that level of engagement, it may be better to simplify the plan. In some cases, liquidating assets, appointing neutral fiduciaries, or distributing shares without joint ownership may be the most practical and effective approach.
Not every family is suited for legacy planning, but with the right preparation, the right attitude, and the right people involved, it can be a powerful tool for preserving wealth, values, and relationships for generations to come.
In the next article, we’ll dive into more myths surrounding estate planning and legacy management. We’ll uncover common misconceptions and share practical strategies for navigating the complexities of legacy planning, helping you build a lasting legacy that reflects your true intentions. Stay tuned as we continue this journey together.

Could Your Building Be Red-Tagged After the Next Quake?
Nobody knows exactly where or when the next major earthquake will strike, but we do know that quakes are inevitable in California and many other states.
It’s also clear what types of buildings will likely suffer the most damage from seismic shaking.
Beyond these basic points, it’s always best to assess your apartment building’s specific risks by having it inspected by a qualified engineering team to identify its unique strengths and weaknesses.
Building failure is the primary cause of death, injury, and property loss suffered from earthquakes.
Many structures considered safe 25 or more years ago have since been proven very vulnerable to violent ground movement experienced during major quakes. Even smaller quakes can weaken buildings over time to cause critical failures. Scientists and engineers have pinpointed five main building types that present significant risks to building owners, tenants and communities.
Earthquake risks in Orange County
Active earthquake faults in Orange County run along the coast and mountain ranges, hitting places such as Huntington Beach and Yorba Linda.
And the hillside communities of Laguna Beach, San Clemente and Santiago Canyon are prone to landslides that can be triggered in a major earthquake, potentially undermining the foundation of a building, or sliding into one.
Liquefaction areas can be found throughout the county, most notably wherever water flows either above or below the ground such as in the aquifer-rich region of central and coastal Orange County, Garden Grove, Santa Ana, Irvine, Huntington Beach, and Yorba Linda, to name a few.
Given these findings, income property owners should consider several economic factors when weighing the cost benefits of a seismic retrofit. These factors include potential loss of income, loss of equity, bankruptcy, and liability associated with damage, death and injury caused by earthquakes.
1 in 16 buildings compromised
Officials estimate there are as many as 300,000 structures in Southern California standing today that could crumble or collapse in an earthquake. These numbers equate to one in every 16 buildings, according to a United States Geological Service assessment.
In fact, buildings in the Greater Los Angeles area (which encompasses Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and Ventura counties) have up to a 5% chance of being damaged by an earthquake this year, according to the USGS.
These vulnerable structures include but are not limited to:
• Soft-story structures built before 1978
• Unreinforced masonry built before 1933

BY ALI SAHABI
• Concrete tilt-up built before 1980
• Non-ductile concrete built before 1977
• Steel moment frame built before 1996
If your building falls within one of these categories, you should arrange for an engineering study to assess the structure’s unique circumstances, which will include its structural design and composition, as well as soils composition and proximity to nearby fault lines.
The benefit of knowing your risks
An engineering study of your property can help establish clear parameters of your risk. This information will help you determine the best course of action to guard against the impacts of a major earthquake.
This information may lead you to seriously consider earthquake retrofit upgrades that enhance structural safety and provide several benefits to property owners.
• Protect your equity in your building
• Guard against liability for owner’s negligence
• Preserve your cash flow from the building

“I’ll Sue You!” Casual Threat, Serious Consequences
It’s a phrase that housing providers hear far too often: “I’ll sue you!”
These words are flung casually by tenants as if they’re a default response to any conflict, big or small. Whether it’s a notice to fix a lease violation, an attempt to collect unpaid rent, or even a simple request to comply with community rules, it’s not uncommon for property owners to find themselves facing threats of legal action—even when they’ve done everything in their power to provide a clean, safe, and well-maintained rental home.
The reality is, these threats—though often empty—, carry enormous weight for housing providers. The legal system has become increasingly complex, filled with countless tenant protection laws that often create a lopsided dynamic where property owners are burdened with immense liability, while tenants face little risk in making baseless claims.
A Legal Minefield for Housing Providers
California is a case study in how intricate and one-sided the legal landscape has become. Laws like the Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) limit rent increases and impose “just cause” eviction requirements, even for smaller property owners who might only have two to four rental units. Senate Bill 567 (SB 567), enacted in 2024, adds even stricter penalties for any perceived violations of tenant protections, including significant fines and potential lawsuits.
Additionally, local ordinances layer on even more rules. Cities like Santa Ana, Los Angeles and San Francisco have their own rent control measures and
tenant relocation assistance requirements. For a housing provider, a simple misstep—like an improperly-worded notice or a minor, technical oversight in following procedural timelines—can lead to legal action, hefty fines, and a battle in court.
Many of these infractions are highly technical and easy to inadvertently trigger, even for the most diligent housing provider. Meanwhile, a tenant could fall months behind on rent, inflict thousands of dollars in property damage, or even engage in illegal activities on the premises, yet the process of recovering those losses is a steep and uncertain legal uphill climb, with little guarantee of restitution.
The Lopsided Reality
Let’s be clear—tenants absolutely deserve to have their rights protected and to live in safe, habitable conditions. The problem arises when the balance tips so far that housing providers are left vulnerable to frivolous threats and extortion-like tactics. For tenants, there’s often no financial consequence to making false claims or leveling baseless lawsuits. For the property owner, defending against even a frivolous claim can result in thousands of dollars in legal fees, endless hours of stress, and the potential risk of a sympathetic judge siding with a tenant who “just didn’t know better.”
In many cases, tenants who threaten lawsuits are simply trying to avoid accountability. A tenant who receives a legitimate notice to cure a lease violation —say, for unauthorized pets or sublet-

BY MERCEDES SHAFFER
ting—might respond with an aggressive “I’ll sue you!” rather than addressing the issue. The housing provider, knowing the legal hurdles and financial risks involved, often feels cornered and powerless, choosing to tolerate the behavior rather than enforce the lease.
A One-Way Street of Accountability
Perhaps the most frustrating aspect for property owners is the glaring imbalance in accountability. If a housing provider fails to make a timely repair, they can face legal claims for habitability violations. But when tenants cause substantial damage—broken appliances, holes in walls, severe negligence—the process of collecting restitution is arduous and often fruitless. Small Claims Court offers little relief, and judgments are rarely enforced.
Even in cases of non-payment of rent, recent legislative changes have made eviction proceedings lengthy, expensive, and tenant favored. Housing providers who rely on rental income to cover their mortgage, taxes, and maintenance are expected to shoulder months of losses while navigating an increasingly bureaucratic eviction process.
The Human Cost of Empty Threats
For housing providers, these frequent “I’ll sue you!” threats aren’t just an annoyance—they’re a source of chronic stress. They foster a climate of fear, hesitation, and resentment. Many small property owners are retirees, families managing a few rental units for supple-

mental income, or first-time investors. They are not mega-corporations with teams of attorneys on standby. Yet they’re treated with the same level of scrutiny and are held to near-impossible standards of legal perfection.
The unfortunate consequence of this environment is a shrinking pool of willing housing providers. Many are choosing to sell their properties or exit the rental market entirely, exacerbating housing shortages and driving rents higher for everyone.
Moving Toward Equal Protection
Housing providers are the foundation of the rental housing market—they take on the financial risk, provide the homes, and uphold the standards of living. It’s time for change—change that ensures equal protection under the law
for both tenants and property owners. A system where responsibilities are respected on both sides, and legal threats are reserved for legitimate grievances, not used as leverage against those who make housing possible.

Estate and Legacy Planning Never Ends.
As Our Families Change, So Must We.
Do you have your family’s future worked out? Your children may go to college and then go to work for a major corporation or company, the government, a non-profit, or other business. Some may continue the family business or start businesses of their own. Others may pursue career paths as artists, entertainers, content creators, service professionals, or some other line of work.
And, for us multi-family housing providers, we know our property investment is the goose with the golden egg that will give, is currently giving, or has already given them their start in life. However, our heirs spurn the thought of one day taking over the ownership and operation of our apartments or single-family rentals, which I’m sure perplexes, disappoints and frustrates many of us—greatly.
Take heart. As your children mature, they can change.
I have three grandchildren who live
on the East Coast. It is difficult being a long-distance grandma and not having much opportunity to help shape them. When they were teenagers, it was obvious they had no interest in future ownership of rentals.
As I write this, I realize I should tell you other aspects of our transitions. Every family is different, but you may get some perspective for your own family, from my path.
I’ve attended AAOC’s “Passing the Torch” seminars in the past. I pondered. I asked my son what he was doing or thinking about regarding his investments. He had purchased some apartments in lower-income cities in New England—a tough endeavor—and answered that he would be selling his apartments because he is working so hard and his children don’t appreciate it. Although this is not a good plan in California, it was a good solution for him. I reacted immediately with, “Bingo! I just found my estate plan.” I would sell some apartments for


the same reasons.

As we know, if we sell outright, we pay 33.3% capital gains tax, losing onethird of the value we worked for so hard. I was able to do a 1031 exchange into a passive investment, thanks to networking within AAOC. I divested enough to make my life easier, to gain more leisure time, and keep a cash flow that I could live on.
Now, back to the grandchildren. They are now in their twenties. I began writing to them about finances—and they listened. I told them about the escalator of inflation; how owning property can increase your net worth from year to year. I suggested that they think about buying real estate.
Grandchild #1 was paying rent on a studio. He decided to buy a condo at the age of 26. He picked one near universities, so he can use it as a rental in later years. Grandchild #2 and her husband are searching for a home, which they will be able to afford because of my having invested. Grandchild #3 is the biggest surprise. He is the shyest one, and last to attend college, but he is the one who is clamoring to enter the rental industry. As I said, families change!
I’m taking this opportunity to share insights into my own family situation to offer reassurance that your family members who seem disinterested in carrying on your legacy as a rental property owner and housing provider will eventually come around. Don’t give


The Hidden Cost of Regulations: How Policies Are Driving Up Rent
The Big Picture
America’s housing affordability crisis is a growing challenge, impacting millions of renters across communities nationwide. To better understand the financial impacts of rental regulations, the National Apartment Association (NAA) and the National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC) cosponsored two studies conducted by Metrosight that provide data-driven insights for policymakers and housing providers.
The first study, Behind the Cost of Rent, quantified how specific regulations such as source-of-income laws, just-cause eviction laws and right-tocounsel statues and resident screening restrictions increase operational costs and reduce revenues for housing providers. Building on this foundation, a new study, Regulation and Rents, examined whether these increased costs
lead to higher rents. The findings are clear and show that these regulations lead to higher rents, particularly for lower-income renters and residents of smaller multifamily properties.
MetroSight’s analysis used two robust datasets, CoStar Group’s market level rent data and the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS), to measure how rents changed over time in areas with and without these regulations. The CoStar dataset, covering 391 U.S. metros from 2000 to 2024, focuses on professionally managed properties, while the ACS dataset, spanning 307 metros from 2005 to 2023, captures a broader range of rental housing, including smaller and subsidized units. Both datasets produced consistent, statistically significant results, reinforcing the credibility of the findings.

Key Findings
BY LEAH CUFFY
• Source-of-income regulations increase rents between 5.2% and 5.3%, or about $876 to $1,104 annually per unit.
• Just-cause eviction laws and right-to-counsel statues increase rents between 5.9% and 6.3%, or about $1,092 to $1,224 annually per unit.
• Criminal and resident screening laws increase rents between 1.5% and 3.4%, or about $252 to $708 annually per unit.
• Rent increases tied to these regulations disproportionately affect lower-income households.
• Residents of two- to four-unit

buildings experience the largest rent increases. These properties, often owned by smaller housing providers, are less able to absorb the additional costs of regulatory compliance, leading to higher rents for renters.
Americans Need Real Solutions for Housing Affordability
The findings of these studies make it clear that addressing America’s housing affordability crisis requires a comprehensive, bipartisan approach with real, sustainable solutions. While increasing housing supply is the most effective long-term solution, we must also provide more immediate support to renters and ensure that policies do not unintentionally exacerbate the problem.
NAA commends Congress for recent legislative efforts, such as the expansion of the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit and the Senate Banking Committee’s approval of the Renewing Opportunity in the American Dream (ROAD) to Housing Act of 2025. These measures represent significant progress, but more work is needed. To address the root causes of the affordability crisis and create meaningful change, NAA urges Congress to prioritize the following actions:
1. Expand Housing Supply
2. Modernize Housing Assistance
Increasing the supply of housing at all price points is the most effective way
to address the affordability crisis. NAA urges Congress to focus on reducing regulatory barriers and incentivizing development through the following measures:
• Identifying Regulatory Barriers to Housing Supply Act [NAA Priority]: This bipartisan bill (H.R. 4659/S. 2416) would require Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) recipients to report on efforts to remove discriminatory land use policies and promote inclusive housing development.
• Build More Housing Near Transit Act: This bipartisan legislation (H.R. 4576/S. 2363) would direct the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to incentivize local governments to promote housing development and regional growth near transit corridors.
• Housing Supply Frameworks Act: This bipartisan bill (H.R. 2840/S. 1299) would direct the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to publish guidelines and best practices for state and local zoning frameworks to encourage housing development.
• Accelerating Home Building Act of 2025: This legislation (S. 2361) would establish a HUD-administered grant program to fund the creation of pattern books for pre-reviewed
Roberts Management & Investments
construction designs, with a focus on missing middle and infill construction.
• TIFIA Reform: Reforming the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) to include housing underwriting standards would unlock $70 billion in below-market lending authority for transitoriented housing development.
• Workforce Housing Tax Credit Act: This bipartisan legislation (H.R. 6686/S. 3425) would establish a new tax credit to produce affordable rental housing for households earning 100% or less of the area median income (AMI), addressing the housing needs of essential workers like teachers, firefighters and nurses.
• Revitalizing Downtowns and Main Streets Act: This bipartisan bill (H.R. 2410) would provide a 20% tax credit to convert office buildings, hotels and retail spaces into affordable rental housing, creating jobs and boosting local property tax revenues.
• Reduce Basis Increase Thresholds: Congress should lower the basis increase necessary to qualify multifamily rehabilitation projects for Opportunity Zone benefits to no higher than 50%, making it
