Vogt Santer Insights can examine one property or all properties in a housing authority's portfolio to determine each property's current and long-term marketability. Demographic characteristics, other housing alternatives, and a thorough analysis of the property's location are used to provide recommendations, which may include: rehabilitation, conversion, or demolition.

Due to varying reasons, housing authority officials may want to determine the viability of converting properties or units to conventional market-rate and/or mixed-income communities. Vogt Santer Insights can provide an analysis of select properties and provide a conclusion for achievable rents by program types, absorption potential and long-term marketability.

Housing authorities are often faced with closing old, obsolete housing. A displacement analysis can be completed to examine the housing market in an area to determine whether alternative housing exists for displaced residents.

Vogt Santer Insights can assist housing authorities in the development of methodologies to justify the cost of Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) reimbursable rent levels.

When assessing a property, it is important to understand it from both a marketability standpoint as well as from a physical condition standpoint. Vogt Santer Insights works with architectural and engineering firms to provide comprehensive assessments of properties.
