A Word from Our President: Bridging the Gap Between Builders and Realtors A few weeks ago, I and several others from the BMHBA had a roundtable discussion with representatives from the Bismarck/Mandan Board of Realtors (BMBOR). The purpose of the meeting was to discuss how we could begin to work together toward our common goals. The Chad majority of real estate firms Moldenhauer in the area are members of Board President our association, as well as the BMBOR itself. However, either Realtors do not know they can attend our events, or they are unaware of those events. In order to increase Realtor attendance at our meetings, we decided we would start notifying the BMBOR about our events and invite Realtors to the February Fun Night hosted by Jerome Distributing as a networking opportunity for Realtors and members of the BMHBA. We also decided that we would set up a meeting once a year between the BMHBA and the BMBOR in order to discuss the issues that our associations are facing and how we can address them collectively. The other main topic of discussion was how we can avoid the somewhat inherent conflicts which occur between builders and Realtors and attempt to establish a course of conduct. On the builder side, the main issues are that often a buyer agency relationship is billed as a “free service,” or buyers are often unaware of the details of a Realtor’s compensation on a custom home build. For builders, conflicts can arise when Realtors seek a commission when they are not the procuring cause of the sale. On the Realtor side, some builders encourage buyers to subvert their realtors in order to get a better price, or a buyer may attempt to work directly with a builder
in order to do the same knowing that they have already established a relationship with a Realtor. Ultimately, the way we can avoid many of these inherent conflicts is by educating buyers as well as Realtors and builders. The first way that Realtors can educate their buyers is by having a signed agency agreement which lays out the role of the agent as well as how they will be compensated on both a home that is listed on the Multiple Listing Service as well as one that is being sold by a builder or private party. If the buyer chooses to build, the relationship between the builder, buyer and realtor should be agreed upon at the outset. In our meeting, we agreed to work on a standard builder registration form that would be signed by the builder, Realtor and even the buyer which would define the terms of the compensation as well as the Realtor’s role throughout the process. This form would be able to be downloaded from the BMHBA and BMBOR websites. The assumption is that if the roles of each party are laid out from the start, the odds of a conflict happening later will be greatly reduced. In order to educate builders on buyer agency relationships, we decided to invite a Realtor to present at a membership meeting throughout the year and/or write something in our newsletter. In order to educate Realtors on what builders expect, a member of the BMHBA will be invited to speak at one of the BMBOR’s functions as well as write a letter that will be attached to one of the weekly emails which are sent to members. This may all seem like an exercise in bureaucracy. However, at the end of the day, both builders and Realtors are trying to sell homes. There can be no doubt that we will each sell more homes through cooperation rather than competition. If we can continue to open up the lines of communication though education and collaboration, we can continue to work towards our common goals.

Armor Interactive: One-Stop Shop for Marketing, IT and Web By Chelsea Gleich
Looking for a one-stop shop for all your marketing, web design and IT needs? Look no further than Armor Interactive. The company was formed in January 2010 as three great companies specializing in these services for over 18 years joined forces as one. “We thought it’d be a great idea to start fresh with a new brand and haven’t looked back,” said Shaun Ahlgren of Armor Interactive. Unlike many web design and IT companies, Armor Interactive is able to fulfill all their clients’ needs in house, without having to outsource or use third party software. Armor Interactive knows the importance of building relationships with their customers, and their customers value that as well. It also cuts down on any miscommunications that could occur with outsourcing. Just as technology is always changing, so are the products and services available from Armor Interactive. Shaun described one of their current projects: “Right now we are implementing systems and software to focus more on the prevention of problems rather than the reaction to a problem. In the IT industry it is pretty easy to wait for someone to have a problem and then run out and fix it. But we want to do small maintenance things that can prevent big problems.” Shaun said that his favorite part of his job is helping to transform companies with little to no current branding into “a brand that is recognizable and, in return, generates additional income on several levels.” Armor Interactive offers branding services including logo design, print publication design (brochures, business cards, etc.), ad set-up, web design, search engine optimization and more. Since all these services are available under the umbrella of Armor Interactive, it is

simpler to achieve one cohesive company image. The greatest challenge facing Armor Interactive is educating the customer on the advantages of using their services, said Shaun, and getting them to recognize the long-term benefits of their investment. Like the saying goes, you’ve got to make hay while the sun shines – an investment in your branding when times are good will serve you well when the economic climate does not.

City Beat: Mayor of Mandan, Arlyn Van Beek, Speaks on Development By Chelsea Gleich
Big things are happening in Mandan, ND. Since Arlyn Van Beek was elected mayor in June, the city has approved a new Wal-Mart in north Mandan, been nominated for the most patriotic city in the U.S., and had some of the highest building permit numbers in years. Needless to say, Mandan is growing. I got a chance to sit down with Mayor Van Beek and talk about how he sees Mandan developing. Mayor Van Beek described Mandan as “the Bismarck of yester year” in terms of economic climate. “We have the real estate available for residential and retail, and growing interest in our community,” he explains. Mayor Van Beek wants to encourage development in Mandan. “I don’t want Mandan to be in the same place it is now four years down the road,” he said. “I want to see us grow, I want to see us prosper.” The growth in the western part of N.D. is trickling into the central part of our state causing BismarckMandan to increase in population as well. Mayor Van Beek said he sees Mandan as a positive environment for this growth with highly ranked schools, tax incentives and space to grow. While we’ve seen many new homes
going up in south Mandan and the Lakewood area, the mayor said that he sees development moving to the north in the near future following the direction of the middle school and potential new elementary school. “I want to invite anyone to build in Mandan,” Mayor Van Beek said. He emphasized that he wants to encourage growth in residential and commercial. The goal is to grow Mandan’s commercial base to offset property taxes, he said. Mayor Van Beek concluded the interview by saying that he is “builder-friendly” and willing to work with the BMHBA with whatever we need.

National News: What Are NAHB’s Priority Issues?
Protect the MID, Federal Support for Housing Finance (a series featuring different priorities in detail each month)
As you all know, your membership in the BMHBA is a tri-fold membership including the NDAB and NAHB. Your membership dues and PAC donations support advocacy efforts on the national scale. That is why you should know what NAHB’s top priorities for 2012 are. This article continues an explanation of the top seven NAHB priorities. Take a look at the August issue of the Building Buzz for priorities one and two.
3. Protect the Mortgage Interest Deduction (MID) Americans overwhelmingly oppose any action by Congress to tamper with the mortgage interest deduction, but it could be eliminated or scaled back as federal lawmakers and the Administration are looking at tax increases in light of deficit concerns. The consequences would be devastating for home owners, the housing market and the nation’s economy. Any attempts to tamper with the mortgage interest deduction would raise taxes on millions of home buyers and home owners and further depress home values nationally, leaving more home owners with mortgages larger than the value of their property (“underwater”) and fueling even more foreclosures. The mortgage interest deduction has been in place since the inception of the tax code nearly 100 years ago. More than 33 million home owners directly benefit from the mortgage interest deduction and nearly 70 percent fo the benefit goes to middle-class home owners who make less than $200,000. Many in Congress agree that the mortgage interest deduction must not be tampered with. House resolution H. Res. 25 states that “the current federal income tax deduction for interest paid on debt secured by a first or second home should not be further restricted.” This resolution has more than 190 co-sponsors and supports are urged to talk to their representatives about it. If you want to learn more about what can be done to protect the mortgage interest deduction, visit www.ProtectHomeownership.com.
4. Maintain Federal Support for Housing Finance System In the wake of the financial crisis, the private market is clearly not working. The Federal Housing Administration,
TOP PRIORITIES Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac currently guarantee or insure more than 90 percent of all home mortgage activity and private lending institutions have shown little inclination to step up to the plate. Even with the current high level of federal support, fewer mortgage products are available now than in the past, and these loans are being underwritten on more stringent terms. Policymakers are now looking at several proposals to wind down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and are weighing several options to encourage increased participation from private financial institutions. Complicating the situation, the federal government is looking to trim back the Federal Housing Administration’s participation as well. As the private market assumes a greater role in the mortgage marketplace, maintaining an appropriate level of government support is essential to preserve financial stability, promote investor confidence and ensure liquidity and stability for homeownership and rental housing. NAHB supports two bills that seek to achieve these goals. H.R. 2413, the Secondary Market Facility for Residential Mortgages Act of 2011, would stabilize housing and ensure liquidity in the mortgage market by maintaining a federal role in the U.S. housing finance system. Similar bipartison legislation, H.R. 1859, would replace Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac with five private companies that would issue mortgage-backed securities and have government backing. Look for more of NAHB’s top priorities in the October issue of the Building Buzz.

Visitability: Inclusion for All
Visitability is a building concept that has been around for more than 20 years and was first implemented in Atlanta, Georgia in 1989 when Habitat for Humanity started building their homes with visitability features. Visibility consists of three basic features in new home construction that will allow individuals with mobility impairments to visit your home. First, is a zero-step entrance with an accessible route that can be at the front door, back door, or through the garage. Second, is wider interior doorways, including the bathroom, of at least 32-inch clear door space. The third feature is a usable bathroom. One thing to keep in mind is — these features only need to be on the main level of the home. As an individual who has used a wheelchair for 32 years, I can tell you firsthand that the need for visitable homes is long overdue. Invitations to social gatherings are almost non-existent because I am un-
able to gain entry into their homes. Of my friends without disabilities, only one home has an accessible entrance and bathroom. This is the norm, not the exception, for people with mobility impairments. What can be done to prevent this type of social isolation? Educate the home buyer, let them know what their options are so they can make an informed choice and by incorporating visitability in their housing design it will allow them to age in place.
