I am the Leasing Analyst for Sands Mobile Estates located at 323 N. Euclid Avenue, Santa Ana. <br />JR Enterprises is the original owner of the Sands Mobile Estates. We've had positive relations with our tenants since its <br />inception in 1975! <br />For the past 20 years, the ownership has voluntarily participated in its our own form of rental assistance program for its <br />tenants who qualify under HUD guidelines. <br />Rent Control causes the values of the mobile homes to skyrocket making them less affordable to people to buy. So, <br />buyers have to pay much more for the mobile homes in order to live there. With no rent control, there is a delicate <br />balance of value of the homes and value of the space rent to new buyers. Rent Control interferes with that balance <br />and the purchase price of the homes increases dramatically. <br />The proposed rent control ordinance is so strict and it will mean park owners cannot afford to put the extra money into <br />making improvements. <br />You are making a broad sweep and punishing the landlords who value their tenants and work with their tenants and it <br />will have a negative affect that you do not see coming down the road. The City wants nice, clean, affordable rental <br />housing but you are tying the hands of those who want to provide this. <br />Sands ownership ASKS that you VOTE NO on passing the rent control ordinance. <br />Aly Pham <br />Leasing Analyst <br />JR Enterprises, LP <br />4299 MacArthur Blvd. Suite 104 <br />Newport Beach, CA 92660 <br />(949) 852-9000 ext. 230 <br />(949) 852-9090 (Fax) <br />alypham(&jrenterprises.net <br />
