Facilities ManagementPreventative Maintenance & Tenant Services RequestsTenant Services Requests

Maintaining the property in excellent condition is paramount to the long termviability of the property. Proper maintenance has profound effects on the ability toattract new tenants, tenant retention and lender satisfaction.

Preventative MaintenanceA determination of preventative maintenance needs is made by our director ofp ymaintenance and reviewed by the property manager. Once these needs aredetermined, a list of preventative maintenance tasks is compiled and assigned afrequency of occurrence. This information is entered into our web basedpreventative maintenance system. PM tickets are generated by the system andemailed to the smart phones of our maintenance personnel or contractors. Eachitem has a specific time frame in which to be completed. Our system flags andreports items that have not been completed and sends an escalation email to boththe maintenance supervisor and property manager.

Tenant Service RequestsTenant Service Requests (TSR) play an important role in tenant retention. Thusan effective and responsive system is required. Tenants call a single number formaintenance requests or repairs. Tenant service requests are entered into ourweb based TSR system. The system emails the service request to the propermaintenance person or contractor’s smart phone. The TSR has a priorityassigned to it which dictates the time frame in which it is to be completed. Items

t l t d ithi th ll tt d ti l t d i il t th di t fnot completed within the allotted time are escalated via email to the director ofmaintenance and the property manager.

Most importantly, the landlord should not incur the cost for work that is thetenant’s responsibility to complete. The repair responsibilities dictated by thelease are abstracted for on-screen viewing when the tenant calls with a servicerequest. If the item is not the landlord’s responsibility, we can immediatelydiscuss the repair with the tenant and guide them to the proper solution.

ReportingDaily reports of the Tenant Service Repair requests are emailed to the director ofmaintenance, the property manager and senior management.

Our monthly standard reporting package includes:Requests for Tenant Services and Repairs

We continually solicit feedback from tenants via oneon one conversations between the property manager and the tenantrepresentative, call confirmation of satisfaction for EVERY tenant repairrequest, surveys for random individual tenant repair requests, and entiretenant population surveys. The information gathered provides a basis ofunderstanding and trust between the property manager and the tenant.Property managers at NAI Chase Commercial understand the key to problemresolution is quick and accurate responses to tenants.

Lease Administration &Enforcement

Lease AdministrationLease administration require accurate and organized records to ensure all leaseare properly documented. Lease files are established with the lease and relatingcorrespondence for each site to provide easy access to a full set of information.A complete lease abstract of ALL important dates and rental amounts for theENTIRE term of the lease are entered into CenterSoft™ immediately after theENTIRE term of the lease are entered into CenterSoft immediately after thelease is executed. This ensures, over the term of the lease, notification andoption dates are met, rental increases implemented, pass through andreconciliation billings are accurate and timely, and any and all date sensitiveinformation is handled in a timely manner. As issues arise, our tenant contactmanagement systems and on line lease and correspondence filing provide readyaccess to information to be sure all parties are properly abiding by the leaseagreements.

Lease EnforcementLease administration controls ensure accurate lease abstracting, record keeping,and accounting. The administration process monitors compliance with the termsand conditions of each individual lease. If the lease terms are not being met, thenthe enforcement provisions identified within the lease or by law are enacted inaccordance with client direction. As a general rule, NAI Chase Commercial takesa strict approach to enforcing the terms of a lease and expects to be held toequally high standards in fulfilling the landlord’s responsibilities thereunder.q y g g p

ContractAdministrationVendor and Contractor LiaisonBeing a third-party management company, the liaison role is typical for NAIChase Commercial. Coordinating vendors, controlling the bid process andsupervising construction and maintenance companies is the routine for us.Because the scope of work performed by NAI Chase Commercial, new biddersand favorable pricing may be introduced as a result of increased volume. Thep g ylarge portfolio currently managed by NAI Chase Commercial allows the companyto have significant pull with vendors and contractors who are very interested insecuring and maintaining contracts with the company.

ComplianceContract compliance is measured through regular and frequent inspections ofthe products and services provided. The inspections allow a comparisonbetween the agreed term and conditions of the contract, and corrective action istaken as needed for the contractor or vendor to improve service.

Service and Equipment ContractsService and equipment contracts are often technical and must be in compliancewith a manufacturer’s specifications. Working from experience, with vendors orwith specialized consultants, a scope of service is identified and bids aresolicited from qualified contractors. Bid approval is sought based upon thepayback analysis if one has been performed for the equipment, or by identifyingthe relative strengths and weaknesses of particular responses to the bidprocess. Naturally cost is a factor, but the ability to properly perform is evenmore critical. So while the low bid is sought, it is not necessarily the bidrecommended. Notably, all contracts are rebid every two years prior to theannual budget preparation.

Maintenance, Housekeeping and SecurityProperly accessing the quality requirements along with the financial expectationsallows for the establishment of a proper scope of work. Monitoring compliancerequires both formal and unannounced inspections and making modifications toprocedures or performance as required. Periodic coordination meetings are heldon a predetermined frequency; weekly for high requirements, every 2 weeks formedium requirements and monthly for low requirements.

Specialized Service and Property ModificationSpecialized services require a clear understanding of the issues beingaddressed. While the management team experience typically allows evenspecialized services to be contracted without outside assistance, there areoccasions when a specialized consultant will be retained to ensure the workscope and compliance are in order. Examples may include operational issuessuch as evaluating the scope and compliance with elevator maintenancecontracts, or major capital improvements such as roofing a large structure orcleaning historically significant architectural details.

Reviewing Existing Service ContractsA cursory review of the contracts is necessary to set up our tracking systems,but a more in depth review is needed to understand the merits of the contract.A proper review requires an understanding of the terms and conditions of eachagreement, and evaluation of related work, a discussion with the contractor,and potentially redefining the scope of work and rebidding.

Determine Local and National Qualified Service ProvidersDetermine Local and National Qualified Service ProvidersDue to the large volume of development, construction and propertymanagement work conducted by NAI Chase Commercial, it is easy to locatequalified service providers for most any project. When selecting a serviceprovider, it is important to know the provider’s capabilities in the market.National service providers may enjoy a fine national reputation, but if the localdivision is lacking or under qualified, then the national affiliation is of little value.

NAI Chase Commercial will establish specific criteria for contractorpqualification. Based on the criteria, a list of qualified contractors will beestablished from current vendors and others who provide service to NAI ChaseCommercial.

Competitively Bid Service ContractsNAI Chase commercial is actively involved in contracts with Federal and Stategovernments and as such has a requirement to take multiple bids for projects.Our standard operating practice has always been to take multiple bids forprojects, and meet all applicable laws and regulations.

Proposal requests will be prepared in accordance with the standard proceduresfollowed by NAI Chase Commercial. Typically small jobs are not reduced toformal RPF formatting, but the scope of work is sent to interested and qualifiedcontractors. Bids are evaluated on merit when received. More formal RFP’s arecreated for large jobs with a detailed work-scope, and timeline. In the case ofmajor work of a highly technical nature, a specialized consultant may be retainedto review the project and prepare the RPF under the guidance of NAI ChaseCommercialCommercial.

Negotiation of Service ContractsService contracts are negotiated to obtain the most favorable terms. Dependingon the size and type of contract, a RFP may be prepared and distributed toqualified bidders. Once the RPF is received, additional steps are taken to ensurethe contractor understands the expectations and agrees to the conditions of theRFP. Modifications are discussed if necessary to explore methods of obtainingdesired results in a more efficient method The final contract is executed and thedesired results in a more efficient method. The final contract is executed and thework commences.

Vendor Insurance ComplianceIn order for a vendor to commence work, a contract is executed and a certificateof insurance for public liability and workman’s compensation is required withtypical limitations of liability are $1,000,000/$2,000,000 respectively. Compliancewith this procedure is tracked via our web based system including automaticverification of insurance certificate compliance The web based system allowsverification of insurance certificate compliance. The web based system allowsfield personal, via smart phones, to readily identify approved contractors for eachproperty.

FinancialAdministrationBudget Preparation and TrackingAn initial budget review will occur in order to become familiar with the currentperformance expectations. Revisions will be recommended as the managementplan develops, but the revisions generally are tracked as variance items and donot recast the budget.

The budget process typically runs on a calendar year, but can easilyaccommodate a fiscal year format if required. Information is accumulatedthroughout the year and in September and October the initial draft of the nextyear’s budget is prepared. The draft incorporates detailed leasing projections,income calculations, operational expenses, a capital improvement plan and adetailed business plan for the budgeted year. The bottom line shows cash flowby month. The budget is reviewed and revised by our management team andthen submitted to ownership for comment, revision or approval by the end ofNovember

The budgeted performance is reviewed monthly and if conditions require, it isreforecast mid-year. The monthly review is reported via the budget comparisonreport which is included in the monthly financial package. This report shows theactual and budgeted income and expenses for the current month and year-to-date periods. Variances are computed for each line item and used as the basisfor the financial report narrative. While the budget is a critical to track anyvariances from the Operating Budget proper rent collection procedures expensevariances from the Operating Budget, proper rent collection procedures, expensecontrol and ongoing budget tracking are ingredients to produce minimal budgetvariances.

Collection of ArrearagesUnless directed otherwise, NAI Chase Commercial takes a very hard line oncollection. The lease term dictates the payment terms and the tenants areexpected to abide by the lease terms, just as the tenant expects NAI ChaseCommercial on behalf of the owner to abide by the lease terms Non payers willCommercial, on behalf of the owner, to abide by the lease terms. Non-payers willreceive a phone call, follow up by a letter stating late fees (if applicable), then awritten notice of delinquency. If payment is not promptly received, a notice ofdefault of the lease is sent followed by eviction proceedings. It is the rare case inwhich a tenant does not pay prior to the commencement of eviction proceedings.

Monitoring of Financial PerformanceThe monthly financial reports indicate actual performance compared to budgetedperformance A careful review of the variances allows NAI Chase Commercial toperformance. A careful review of the variances allows NAI Chase Commercial toprovide explanations and revised forecasts if necessary. Performance factorscan quickly be adjusted if the financial projections are favorable or unfavorable toexpectations.

Real Estate Tax AppealEach year NAI Chase Commercial monitors and directs real estate tax appealwork for clients. The appeal process involves analyzing each site to see if thesite market conditions changed to favor a lower taxable value. Large local orregional firms conduct the appeals on a contingency basis.

Year End ReconciliationA year-end reconciliation of operating expenses is performed for all properties inorder to recapture the cost of all allowable items as determined by eachindividual tenant lease. In order to enhance the accuracy and timeliness of thereconciliation billings, our use of CenterSoft™ accounting software fullyautomates this process by incorporating information gathered as part of thelease abstract with actual expenses incurred over the reconciliation period.Additionally as part of the reconciliation billing process all expenses areAdditionally, as part of the reconciliation billing process, all expenses arebenchmarked against comparable managed properties as well as publishedcomparable numbers via organizations such as IREM, BOMA and ICSC.

Utilities ManagementTo effectively manage and control utility costs, we track each and every utilityinvoice in our utility database. Through a relational database we associate themeter number, suite number and account number to the key billing elements ofthe particular utility meter readings and costs We print a 15 month history ofthe particular utility, meter readings and costs. We print a 15 month history ofcost and usage for each utility invoice received so the property manager canreadily determine trends or causes of concern when approving the invoice forpayment. This database also ensures that owner’s do not pay for utilities that arethe responsibility of the tenant.

Property Management Accounting SoftwareCenterSoft™ property management software handles all our our LeaseAdministration Accounts Payable Accounts Receivable and General LedgerAdministration, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and General Ledger.This application incorporates a unique data structure which puts the leasedocument as the heart of the software, adapting easily to unique lease clausesand calculations.

Controls &Bankingg

Banking RelationshipsNAI Chase Commercial has relationships with a number of major bankinginstitutions and is able to work with specific client needs to determine the bestsolution to use for a given project

Trust AccountsTrust AccountsAll funds are held in trust accounts for the entity under contract, and no fundsare commingled. Expenses are paid from a disbursement account that isfunded by the property trust account. Debt services or any other approvedexpenses would be paid in the same manner. Surplus funds available at monthend are remitted to ownership, based on the management plan which allowsfor working balancing remaining in the property trust account.

Rent CollectionNAI Chase Commercial will aggressively market the building for lease inattempt to stabilize the asset and it value. Rent collection is a paramountconcern and a major focus of management and accounting activity. By abidingby the landlord lease responsibilities, providing proper tenant service andbuilding maintenance, NAI Chase Commercial is able to strictly enforce thetenant lease obligations.

To ensure all rents and other charges are assessed properly leases arethoroughly and carefully abstracted by the property accountant into theaccounting system and reviewed by the property manager and controller. Theaccounting abstract covers all items and events over the entire term of thelease and includes items such as: rent, rent escalations, rent abatements, passthrough expense calculation methods, percentage rent, any other type of billingcharge, sales reporting requirements, notice dates, option dates, expirationdates, first rights of refusal, and any other possible date sensitive item that maybe encountered in the lease. The accounting system has control mechanismst if h d it i bill d dd d t ti ll b thto verify each and every item is billed or addressed automatically by thesystem and at the correct time.

The accounting system generates monthly billings within the system, however,we do not send invoices to tenants unless there has been a change in thebilling amount. This process adheres to the lease, saves time, effort andpaper. The accounting system notifies the property accountant of any changesin billing amount so an invoice can be sent for that month.

CAM, tax, insurance and operating expense billings are estimated and chargedmonthly. The accounting software reconciles the monthly estimate billings tothe actual expenses on a annual basis, or shorter period if allowed by thelease. Balances due from tenants are invoiced, and both credit and debitbalances are reflected on the tenant invoice and tenant ledger.

As a general rule, rents are due on the first day of the month, late on the tenthday of the month. The collection effort begins immediately on the fifth day ofthe month with a friendly reminder phone call made by the propertybookkeeper; followed by assessment of a late fee (per the terms of the lease)with written notice thereof; followed by written notice of default and a personalvisit by the property manager and if necessary evolving into an evictionvisit by the property manager and, if necessary, evolving into an evictionproceeding. Typically, even the most marginal tenant pays after the notice ofdefault has been sent and court action is avoided. Clients are informed of allcollection issues and notified before legal action is pursued. Once a collectioneffort begins an open item is created in our tracking system. This systemgenerates a daily report enabling the property manager and senior executivesto be aware of daily collection activity.

Rents are entered into the accounting system and deposited on the dayRents are entered into the accounting system and deposited on the dayreceived. As an additional control measure, the tenant checks are scannedfor deposit and the checking account number is used by the accountingsoftware to bring the proper tenant account on screen for application ofpayment. This method increases accuracy, is fast and provides a preventivemeasure against an undisclosed assignment of a lease.

By recording and depositing rental payments daily, cash flow is maximizedand records are always up to date for accurate and efficient follow up.

Expense ControlExpense control is a key ingredient for the success of both NAI ChaseCommercial and our portfolio of managed properties. A major advantageoffered by NAI Chase Commercial is our ability to negotiate price discountsdue to our volume purchasing power

By lowering pass-through expenses, the sites become more competitive andcan demand higher rents. In addition, tenants are more prone to renew leaseson properties with lower operating expenses.

Expense control begins with realistically budgeting for the property based onownership objectives. All anticipated expenses are competitively bid on aregular basis so as to be certain we are paying the lowest prices possible forthe quality standards required.
