STAFF REPORT
REQUEST: AUTHORIZE THE ACQUISITION OF APN 634-242-006
SUBMITTED BY: JANET M. MOORE, HOUSING AUTHORITY ADMINISTRATOR
DATE: APRIL 28, 2005
CONTENTS: CERTIFICATE OF ACCEPTANCE OF DEED
Recommendation:
By Minute Motion,
1) authorize the acquisition of 75-348 Kelsey Circle (APN 634-242-006) for the
purpose of retaining affordability covenants and resale; and
2) authorize the Executive Director to execute any documents necessary to
facilitate this acquisition. Funds are available in the Housing Set -Aside
Fund.
Executive Summary:
The Agency has the first right of refusal to purchase resales at Desert Rose in order to maintain
affordability covenants and resell the unit to another qualified buyer. If the Agency fails to execute
its option to purchase within a 60-day period, the homeowner can sell the house to a non -qualified
buyer and the Agency would lose its covenants on the property.
Discussion:
The Agency has the first right of refusal to purchase properties from owners in Desert Rose who
desire to sell. Staff desires to exercise the Agency's option to purchase in order to retain
affordability covenants in anticipation of the expiration of the 60-day Right of Refusal to purchase
period in order to allow for additional time to identify a low income family to purchase the unit if it
becomes necessary.
The home was first purchased in June 28, 1996, for the sale price of $73,950.00. There has only
been one (1) owner and based on the formula for resale described in the Unit Regulatory
Agreement, the owner is authorized to sell the home for $95,040 plus commissions and reasonable
closing costs. The Agency has the right to purchase the properties for the same amount as the
owners are authorized to sell.

With proper authorization, a low or moderate income family will be identified from an established
waiting list and will purchase the home directly from the Agency. It will be necessary for the
Agency to provide a Second Trust Deed to a new buyer in an amount necessary to secure an
affordable housing cost in order for them to qualify to purchase the home. The new buyer will be
required to sign a new Unit Regulatory Agreement for a covenant period of 30 years as prescribed
in the Desert Rose Unit Regulatory Agreement.
Monies are available in the Agency's Housing Set -Aside Fund.
