DISCUSSION <br /> Hello Housing - Proposed Agreement for Fiscal Year 2018/19 <br /> Staff has been pleased with the quality and level of service provided by Hello Housing <br /> since January 2016, including the recently ended FY2017/18 and is proposing that Hello <br /> Housing continue to administer the Pleasanton Homeownership Assistance Program <br /> during the next fiscal year. Implementation of the proposed agreement will result in a <br /> continued high level of service to the public (both existing BMR owners as well as <br /> prospective first time homebuyers). In addition, the agreement is expected to create <br /> greater efficiencies for City staff and ensure a higher level of program compliance <br /> through more regular and systematic monitoring of current BMR owners. Exhibits A and <br /> B of the attached Professional Services Agreement outline in detail the scope of <br /> services to be provided over the coming fiscal year. Annual monitoring costs included <br /> in the agreement are based on the total number of loans in the City's portfolio. As part <br /> of the monitoring services, Hello Housing will determine occupancy status and assist <br /> the City with resale compliance inquiries and issues as needed. <br /> BMR administration services include screening and qualifying prospective applicants <br /> according to the City's criteria, and interfacing on the City's behalf with buyers and <br /> mortgage lenders through the close of escrow. Other first time homebuyer services, <br /> including mortgage assistance program administration, have been included in the <br /> agreement on a variable, as-needed basis. There will be no budget allocated for new <br /> BMR home sales in FY 2018/19 like there was for the ten (10) BMR homeownership <br /> units at the Summerhill "Andares" development during last FY 2017/18. <br /> The table below provides a summary of the scope of services and costs associated with <br /> the proposed professional services agreement with Hello Housing: <br /> Anticipated <br /> Hello Housing Activity/Service Area Price Per Number of /19 <br /> Activity Activities Budget Budget <br /> Annual Compliance Monitoring $145 91 $13,195 <br /> Setup of BMR Resale (marketing, timeline and pricing creation) $500 1 $500 <br /> Waitlist Creation and Management (per lottery) $4,600 1 $4,600 <br /> BMR Resale: Milestone 1 (all reviewed applicants) $850 8 $6,800 <br /> BMR Resale: Milestone 2 $1,450 2 $2,900 <br /> BMR Resale: Milestone 3 $1,725 2 $3,450 <br /> BMR Appeals - Program Manager Hourly Rate $100 4 $400 <br /> Inclusionary BMR Sale: Milestone 2 $1,450 2 $2,900 <br /> Inclusionary BMR Sale: Milestone 3 $1,725 2 $3,450 <br /> DPA Application Processing $750 2 $1,500 <br /> DPA Doc Prep & Closing for Loans $675 1 $675 <br /> Payoffs of DPA $460 1 $460 <br /> Refinances $750 4 $3,000 <br /> Subtotal: $43,830 <br /> Additional Services Contingency (10%): $4,383 <br /> Total Contract Budget: $48,213 <br /> Page 3of5 <br />
