Debra Still

 NEW YORK, NY (May 16, 2016) – The Mortgage Bankers Association Opens Doors Foundation (MBA Open Doors) today announced that it is accepting “Text-to-Give” donations.

MBA President and CEO David H. Stevens, CMB, made the announcement during his opening remarks to the conference. 

MBA Opens Doors is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing assistance to families with a critically ill or injured child by making their mortgage or rent payment.

Any Opens Doors Foundation supporter with a cell phone can text “ODF” to the number “20222.” 

Once the donor confirms the return message a donation in the amount of $25.00 is made to the Foundation. A one-time $25.00 donation is charged to the donor’s wireless bill or prepaid balance.

“The attendees at MBA’s conventions have already been very generous. 

More than $20,000 has been raised at MBA’s meetings in 2016 alone, through small donations of individual members moved to give by the stories of families that Opens Doors has helped,” said Debra Still, Foundation Chairman and CEO of Pulte Mortgage. “By using ‘Text-to-Give’ we can streamline that process and make it much easier for individual members to give not only at our conferences and meetings but throughout the year.”

David H. Stevens

Opens Doors is currently able to pass on 100 percent of the donations it receives to families in need of assistance. Potential recipients of the grants are identified through the Foundation’s ongoing relationship with children’s hospitals in Washington D.C., Boston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Denver and Houston.

Michigan State Students Cameron Armstrong and Di Wang Win 2016 Hospitality Asset Managers Association (HAMA) Student Case Competition

Kim Gauthier

BOSTON, MA, May 16, 2016—The Hospitality Asset Managers Association (HAMA) today announced that senior Cameron Armstrong and junior Di Wang of Michigan State University were selected as the 2016 winners of the Tenth Annual HAMA Student Case Competition.

 The MSU team was chosen from a select field of top hotel schools that also included the Pennsylvania State University and the University of Denver.  

Di Wang

Student teams researched and prepared a case study from a list of topics that currently impact the hotel industry. 

Wang and Armstrong presented on “How to Best Reach Chinese Millennials via Social Media,” a task they noted was all the trickier due to China’s restrictions on sites like Facebook and Twitter.

 The University of Denver’s Chris Allmann and Jon Willis focused on the “Minimum Wage Increase on the Lodging Industry” and how to mitigate its impact.  Samantha Martin and Charles Garber were chosen to represent The Pennsylvania State University and researched, “Out of Control Third Party Commissions,” offering insights into how best to work with OTAs.

“Each year, I continue to be more impressed by the level of sophistication and insight from tomorrow’s future hotel leaders,” said Kim Gauthier, HAMA education chair and senior vice president of Hotel Asset Value Enhancement.  

“While these students still are in the learning phase of their very young careers, their perspectives shine new and interesting light on problems that we deal with on a daily basis as professional asset managers.  

It is HAMA’s goal to embrace and nurture these young minds as they grow into our industry.”

Samantha Martin

                Working with a HAMA member and their respective university professors, student participants were required to give a multi-part presentation, complete with research paper and accompanying PowerPoint, over the course of two sessions that included initial and revised findings.

 Topics included “Rising Minimum Wage,” “Rising Health Care,” “Social Media Management Issues and Trends,” “Room Design – What Does the Future Room Look Like,” “Out-of-Control Third-Party Commissions (Primarily Group Airbnb/VRBO),” “Alternatives for Room Service,” and “Wi-Fi Solutions.”

  Winners received an all-expense-paid trip to HAMA’s Spring Meeting in Boston to meet and network with some of the industry’s leading hotel asset managers. 

  In addition to the award presentation, the two-day event also hosted a number of informational sessions and group meetings to discuss the latest industry trends and share best practices.

                “With governmental restrictions on sites like Facebook and Twitter, it is a challenge to reach Chinese Millennials via social media,” noted Wang.  “That being said, there certainly are Chinese equivalent sites that allow hoteliers to reach this hugely profitable traveling segment.”

                “Our goal was to find alternatives that allow socially proactive organizations to place better advertising and interaction opportunities in front of this target audience,” added Armstrong.

 “This competition has been a huge learning experience for us, not just regarding this immediate issue, but through working with established asset managers and seeing things from that discipline’s viewpoint.  This award really validates our decision to pursue careers within the hospitality industry.”

The Preiss Company Acquires Two Student Housing Properties in New Joint Venture; Brings to Seven Acquisitions Year-to-Date

  

 

Donna Preiss

 RALEIGH, NC, May 16, 2016—Officials of The Preiss Company, the nation’s third largest, privately-held, student housing owner-operator, today announced that it had formed a joint venture with a private investment group to acquire two student housing complexes in Raleigh, N.C., for an undisclosed amount. 

The transaction brings to seven the number of properties transacted by Preiss year-to-date.  Both student housing units -- the 440-bed College Inn and the 288-bed University Village at 2505 -- will continue to be operated by The Preiss Company.

“Preiss previously was a joint venture partner in these properties,” said Donna Preiss, founder and CEO of The Preiss Company.  “Our former partner had achieved its objectives with these assets and wanted to harvest the return on their investment.  

“We have a diverse number of strategic partners with different investment criteria.  This allowed us to work with another of our investor partners to acquire these assets which still have great upside,” she said.

“Coming into 2016, Preiss set a goal of adding 10 properties,” she noted.  “We have the largest pipeline in our history and could exceed that goal by as early as this summer.

“ Based on our current rate of acquisitions, we will have an exceptional year, perhaps a record. There are a large number of properties on the market, ranging from those that would benefit from major renovation/repositioning to those that need more focused management. 

“There also remains opportunities to develop new properties.  Financing remains attractive, and we see continued demand growth.  We continue to believe this is an excellent time to be investing in student housing.”

RealtyTrac Reports First Quarter 2016 Home Loan Originations Down 8 Percent from Year Ago, Driven by 20 Percent Drop in Refinance Originations

Daren Blomquist

IRVINE, Calif. –— RealtyTrac® (www.realtytrac.com), the nation’s leading source for comprehensive housing data, released its Q1 2016 U.S. Residential Property Loan Origination Report, which shows 1.4 million (1,415,511) loans were originated on U.S. residential properties (1 to 4 units) in the first quarter of 2016, down 12 percent from the previous quarter and down 8 percent from a year ago to the lowest level since the first quarter of 2014.

The loan origination report is derived from publicly recorded mortgages and deeds of trust collected by RealtyTrac in more than 950 counties accounting for more than 80 percent of the U.S. population.

The year-over-year decrease in total originations was driven by a 20 percent year-over-year decrease in refinance originations even while purchase originations increased 3 percent from a year ago and Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) originations increased 10 percent from a year ago.

“After a surprisingly strong 2015, the mortgage refi market started running out of steam in the first quarter of 2016 despite lower mortgage interest rates,” said Daren Blomquist, senior vice president at RealtyTrac.

“Meanwhile the purchase loan market continued the pattern of slow-and-steady growth that it has been following the past two years, and HELOC originations increased on a year-over-year basis for the 16th consecutive quarter, showing that borrowers are regaining both home value and the confidence needed to increasingly leverage their home equity.”
