2Todays Agenda
- Financial analysis update
- Overall feasibility
- Fiscal impacts
- Infrastructure
- Residential leaseholds
3The Financial Model
- 20-year time horizon
- Annual cash flow estimates
- Set up on a planning area and product type basis
- Example North Gate - New Construction - Town
homes - Two perspectives
- FMFADA
- Municipal service provider
4Model Inputs
- Real Property Assets
- Existing building inventory new construction
per Reuse Plan - Phasing of rehabilitation and new construction
activity - Rents/Values
- Rental rates (for Interim Leasing) and ground
lease rates - Residential Leasehold values (e.g., home prices)
- External sources of funds
- Commonwealth appropriations/federal grant
programs/other - Costs
- FMFADA operations
- Direct building expenses
- Municipal tax rates, fees and charges
- Infrastructure, adaptive reuse, new
construction - Major and minor improvements
5Model Outputs
- Revenue estimates
- Interim Leasing
- Pre-paid leaseholds
- Ground rent
- Other (marina, special events, concessions)
- Net income to FMFADA
- Net fiscal position to municipal service
providers - Net capital or endowment fund position for FMFADA
- (retained income)
6Overall Project Feasibility
- Yes, the FMFADA can achieve overall financial
feasibility through its leasing program and other
revenue sources - The FMFADA will own marketable buildings with no
debt - Key revenue drivers are Interim Leasing Program
(starting in 2011) and Pre-paid Leasehold Program
(starting in 2014) - Ground rent ramps up over 12 years, stabilizes in
2027 - Key cost drivers are scale of FMFADA organization
and decisions related to provision of municipal
services and infrastructure financing - There are multiple paths to feasibility
- But,
- Need to address early year municipal service
revenue deficits - Example Commonwealth appropriation increase to
approximately 2.4M/yr to cover recreation costs
shifted to FMFADA in this model run - 3M improvement fund required for Interim Leasing
Program
7Lease Revenue Mix
8Fiscal Impact Update
- Municipal Service Provider Perspective
- Does tax revenue match or exceed municipal
service costs? - Additional public safety costs added
- Shifted recreation costs to FMFADA
- 11M net present value revenues net of costs
- However, 7.8M initial investment (deficit) in
first six years - Key findings
- Municipal costs can be controlled to some extent
by ramping up public safety services only when
needed - Depending on terms negotiated, Army leaseback of
facilities after transfer date may partially
mitigate early tax revenue shortfalls - Significant positive net tax revenue flow after
breakeven point reached - Results sensitive to residential market
conditions for pre-paid leasehold program and
value/timing of new construction put in place
9Municipal Perspective
10Infrastructure Findings
- Total preliminary cost of 96M
- Matching of pre-paid residential leasehold
revenue (97M) to infrastructure capital
requirement is too close for comfort - External infrastructure funding sources are
available and should be maximized - Every dollar saved increases the potential for
the endowment fund of the FMFADA - Need to identify other revenue sources/FMFADA
charges
11Residential Leaseholds
- What are they?
- Under a long-term leasehold, you do not own the
property - Instead, you have the right to live in a property
for a set period of time as long as you live up
to the lease terms - You are responsible for maintenance and repairs
- This right is referred to as a leasehold
interest in the land and building, or leasehold
estate. - Usually these leases are for 50 or more years
- Leasehold owners can freely sell, assign, or
bequeath their lease (if the lease permits it)
12Residential Leaseholds (cont)
- How would this work at Fort Monroe?
- The FMFADA has been studying the concept of a
pre-paid lease - You can buy a leasehold in exchange for a
upfront payment - The price of the leasehold may or may not be
the same as if you bought a similar house
outright, often --but not always-- there is a
discount (10 to 15) - Your payment would typically have to be financed
and you would apply for a loan that is secured
against the leasehold (not the property itself) - The lease would be recorded in the official
records and subject to local property taxation
(possessory interest) - You would make monthly payment to your lender as
you would for any home purchase - You could freely refinance your loan so long as
you had enough remaining years in the lease (at
least 10 years longer than the loan term e.g. 40
years for a 30 year loan).
13Leasehold Example
2014 Leasehold Purchase
2024 Leasehold Sale
- Colonels Row Home
- Pre-payment Amount 850,000
- Term 50-years
- Financing
- 20 leaseholder down payment
- 80 bank financing, 30-year term _at_6
- Payment 4,076 per month
- Lease sales price 950,000
- On multi-listings service
- Brokers commission 6
- Term remaining 40 years
- New buyer seeks financing
- May seek extension of term (lease may have
options for this)
The local real estate community needs to be part
of the process and is the key to the
implementation.
