一家总部设在旧金山的房地产技术独角兽公司裁减了近三分之一约100名的员工。

Pacaso是一家房地产科技（或proptech）初创公司，承诺以很小的成本实现「第二套住房所有权」，其模式与分时度假（以及同为房地产初创公司的独角兽Sonder）并不完全相同。该公司已裁员30%，并将裁员归因于逐渐疲软的经济走势。这一消息是由房地产新闻网站Inman首先报导的。

据Real Deal报导，在本月上旬全体员工电话会议上，首席运行官艾利森（Austin Allison）表达了对更广泛的经济问题的担忧，包括可能出现的经济衰退对Pacaso商业模式产生的风险。

从本质上讲，Pacaso通过创建有限责任公司来购买房屋（八个人可以组建有限责任公司），并管理从设计到使用业主之间分配时间的共同所有权。目前可供共同拥有的许多房屋都位于太浩湖地区，但该地区正在经历住房危机，部分原因是度假屋和其他第二房产的空置。

据TechCrunch在2021年3月报导，该公司在推出后仅五个月就获得了10亿美元的估值，足以使其成为独角兽。

Real Deal报导称，艾利森在电话中说：「像这种环境下的任何企业一样，Pacaso必须做出积极的改变，以确保我们的支出与收入相称。」

艾利森在电话中表达的担忧，包括房屋价值的下降，尤其是度假屋和其他第二房产。在10月7日发布的新闻稿中，艾利森将对Pacaso的内核产品「豪华第二房产」的需求描述为「前所未有的不可持续」，但他表示，从长远看他仍然「看好」第二房产。

Real Deal指出，被解雇的员工将获得遣散费和医疗福利，但细节并不清楚。Pacaso的发言人没有立即回应媒体的评论请求。

大华府房产交易放缓房价涨3.3% 维州福斯教堂市涨近20% 幅度最大

大华府地区的房产销售持续放缓，今年9月的整体房价比去年同期增长逾3%，涨幅最明显的是维州福斯教堂市(Falls Church City)，增长了近20%，而阿灵顿郡的房价下降近14%，主要原因是今年售出的房产除了独栋房屋外还包括许多公寓，房产分析师表示，来年房价会逐渐回落，但仍比疫情前高二至四成。

房地产网站Bright MLS的报告显示，大华府地区今年9月售出房产价格的平均中位数，比去年同期上升了3.3%，多数地区的房价都有不同幅度的增长，涨幅最大的是维州福斯教堂市，增长了19.6%，费尔法克斯市(Fairfax City)也增长14.6%

大华府仅有北维州的两个地区出现房价回落，包括阿灵顿郡(Arlington County)，价格中位数下降了13.6%，以及亚历山卓市(Alexandria City)降了近10%。

Bright MLS首席经济分析师司徒兰特(Lisa Sturtevant)表示，阿灵顿郡和亚历山卓市的情况之所以与大华府其他多数地区不同，主要原因是今年售出的房产与去年不同，今年的房产交易中包括许多公寓(condo)，而去年多以独栋房屋(house)为主，因此今年的平均售价中位数比去年低。

司徒兰特说，秋冬季时房产销售一般会减速，但对比去年同期，今年放缓得格外明显，今年9月签订的交易合同比去年同期减少了32.7%，这也是连续第七个月呈下降趋势，「去年的房产交易异常活络，因此放缓趋势不令人意外，但今年有待推进的房产交易数量甚至比2019年前还少，大华府已多年未见此情况。」

根据房产数据分析，未来一年房产销售仍将持续放缓，因贷款利率居高不下，买者减少，房价增长速度也将相应放缓，不过短期内房价下降的幅度不会很明显，司徒兰特表示，尽管房价将逐渐脱离最高峰，但仍会比新冠疫情前的价格多二成至四成。

DIY Landlord – Renting out Properties Safer and Quicker!

By David Chen

3/05/2022

Q. We purchased our first home some years ago, and are about to move to another home. We are considering to keep our first home as an income property. We heard of the free ads on CRAIGSLIST and zillow.com, but some landlord friends told us it could be a challenge to find qualified tenants through CRAIGSLIST and zillow.com. Is there any way to rent our property out quicker and safer with minimum cost? We are the kind of persons who would like to try things ourselves, and have some spare time.

A. You may have already done the initial research and have figured out the range of monthly rent of your property.

If the monthly rent is low such as $1800.00 or below, you may want to do it through CRAIGSLIST, https://postlets.com/, zillow.com, or similar web sites. The renters interested in the low-priced rentals may not go to the Realtors community for assistance.

If the monthly rent is $1800.00 or above, you may want to consider listing your rental on brightmls.com for the Realtors community to market it for you.

Bright MLS is made up of nine forward thinking MLSs (43 Associations) in the Mid-Atlantic region who put aside their differences and came together with a shared vision to help solve MLS market overlap and empower everyone to get more out of the MLS. Bright will serve parts of 6 states plus Washington, D.C. encompassing 85,000 real estate professionals who serve over 20 million consumers and facilitate approximately 250,000 transactions a year that are valued at more than $70 billion.

Dozens of public real estate websites (such as: zillow.com, redfin.com, brightmlshomes.com, etc.) pull data from brightmls.com through syndication. In a few hours, your listing will show up on dozens of websites and will get the maximum exposure. It is a lot quicker and safer finding qualified tenants than doing it through CRAIGSLIST and zillow.com. You may talk with a Realtor for assistance. Please be aware some Realtors take rental jobs, some don’t.

Over the years I have helped some landlords in the community renting their properties out with very low cost. A popular arrangement is to help the landlords ‘DIY’, which has been working well for those experienced landlords.

The good side of ‘DIY’ is that the landlords can ‘screen’ the potential tenants from the very beginning, have 100% control of the whole process, and enjoy the feeling of “on top of things”.

If you prefer minimum service, I can help you ‘DIY’:

1. I provide CMA, list your rental on brightmls.com, put a realtor’s lockbox at the front door if needed, provide the access log (if needed), support you through the whole process.

I charge a flat fee for the minimum service.

2. If you would like me to prepare the lease or review the lease, there is another reasonable flat fee. This service is optional.

3. You answer phone calls, work with the tenant (if the tenant doesn’t have an agent) or the tenant’s agent, run credit check, verify employment, check references, etc.. You pay the tenant’s agent (if there is one) directly on the move-in date – usually 25% of first-month rent.

If you need full-service, the commission is first-month rent – which includes the commission to be paid to the tenant’s agent.

If you need any customized service (between minimum service and full-service), we can work out an agreement.

Some information:

CMA stands for Comparable (some called Competitive) Market Analysis, that will help you determine the market value of your property for sale or for rent.

I use Sentry-key lockbox. Any Realtor with membership of NVAR (Northern Virginia Association of Realtors) or any other VA Realtors association can access and show the property.

The access log tells when the agents enter the property and their contact info. which can help you follow up with the agents.

If you like the DIY experience, I would recommend you to use the minimum service.

Please feel free to reach me if you need any assistance.
