Good morning. New York’s eviction protections for tenants could be coming to an end in January. One of the world’s biggest streamers plans to buy a 300-acre property at a former military base in NJ and build a new, state-of-the-art production facility. And a national brokerage firm is betting big on single-family rental sales and has put together an A-team to execute the mission.

THAT’S A WRAP
New York’s ERAP Eviction Protections to End in January
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Starting January 15th, New York’s Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP) will no longer accept applications from tenants seeking protection from eviction, according to a recent settlement.
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Time to face the music: When the Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance (OTDA) runs out of ERAP funds, applications will start getting denied. The program has been low on funds since November 2021, but New York asked for $1B in additional funding from the government in November. While the US Treasury still has $13B to allocate for rent relief, New York is unlikely to get much of it. In fact, NY only received 7% of $1.6B it requested at the beginning of the year.
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Better to give than to receive: The state has already shelled out all of its rent aid, yet 176K unpaid rent applications remain pending. There are also a large number of incomplete “phantom applications” on the portal that are allowing tenants to receive eviction protections. A Freedom of Information Law request made by a Long Island landlord found that OTDA did not include over 360K incomplete applications in its headcount, either.
➥ THE TAKEAWAY
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Last-ditch, one-shot deal: Landlords have been left in limbo as they await decisions from the state, wondering when and how they’ll be paid. Industry experts came up with a few ideas. The state could increase funding for the city’s One Shot Deal program, which allows renters to cover rent while facing eviction. Renters and landlords wouldn’t have to waste time and money waiting around for the courts to seek relief, and renters could apply for relief before a housing court date.
THE NEW HOLLYWOOD
Netflix to Buy 300-Acre Production Site in New Jersey
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Netflix (NFLX) plans to buy a 300-acre property at a former military base in New Jersey to build a state-of-the-art production facility, investing $850M and counting into the new venture.
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
The new digs: On Dec. 21st, the Fort Monmouth Economic Revitalization Authority (that was a mouthful) gave Netflix the green light to purchase the 292-acre Fort Monmouth property for $55.04M to build its new production site. The facility will feature 12 soundstages ranging from 15–40 KSF. It may also feature a cafeteria, helipad, hotel, theater (of course), and a base camp for trailer parking.
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
The Netflix economy: Construction of the new facility alone could create 3.5K jobs in the area and generate 1.4–2.2K more jobs annually. If that wasn’t nice enough, the new production site is also projected to net somewhere between $7.4–$8.9B over the next two decades. “Netflix’s substantial direct investment will stimulate job creation and spark an entirely new ecosystem…bringing with it countless additional jobs and boosting the regional economy,” said New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy.
➥ THE TAKEAWAY
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Silver screen dreams: New Jersey has been making efforts to expand its tax-credit program to lure in more local film and TV production. In addition to its deal with Netflix, the entertainment company Lionsgate was named a “studio partner” this month by the state. This partnership will allow Lionsgate to tap into more tax credits as it becomes an anchor tenant at its $125M studio in Newark.
RENTAL BOOST
Newmark Invests in Single-Family Rentals Amid Low Demand
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Newmark (NMRK), one of the largest real estate brokerage firms in the nation, has put together a national A-team with the sole purpose of boosting single-family rental sales even as demand cools.
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
The A-team: Chad Lavender and Ryan Maconachy will be leading Newmark’s new sales group to entice investment in single-family rentals. Brokers Leland Manning and Josh Francis will also be operating within Newmark’s multifamily capital markets group led by Jeff Day. Other major brokerages, such as Cushman & Wakefield (CWK) and CBRE, have set their eyes on the SFR sector for the past two years.
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Increasing investor interest: SFR sales skyrocketed during the pandemic after city dwellers flocked to suburban rentals seeking more space and privacy. Unsurprisingly, there’s been growing interest among institutional investors. In fact, they’ve already spent more than $100B on SFRs over the past several years. And a recent report from MetLife Investment Management revealed that institutional investors like Blackstone (BX) and Ares Management (ARES) owned roughly 700K SFR properties.
➥ THE TAKEAWAY
p span[style*=”font-size”] { line-height: 1.6; }
Can’t buy ’em’? Build em’: Big-name players had to pull back on buying new properties this year due to rising home prices and lending costs. For instance, Invitation Homes bought 559 homes in Q3 2022 compared to the 1.5K homes it bought in Q4 2021. As existing home sales slowed down, built-to-rent properties shot up to over 25K homes this year, attracting homebuilders and developers into a booming market.
