Qualifications Although we specialize in multifamily apartments, we have also appraised numerous office, retail, industrial, and  special-use properties.  We are especially proud of our ability to tackle extremely complex properties, including  mixed-use properties and large-scale redevelopment projects. The following highlights the qualification of our appraisers. David Pallante, MAI I have been continually engaged in the appraisal of commercial real estate since 1985, and I  have been a Member of the Appraisal Institute (MAI) since 1990.  I work primarily in the greater  Houston area, but I regularly perform appraisals throughout Texas.  On occasion, I have also  worked in other states, including New Mexico, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, Michigan,  Alabama, Kentucky, South Carolina, and Illinois.  Apartments account for a majority of my  assignments, but I also have extensive experience in office, retail, and industrial properties.  I have testified in Federal Bankruptcy Court, District Court, and Commissioners Court as an expert witness in the  valuation of real estate.  I have also testified before the Bond Review Board in Austin, Texas regarding a proposed  bond-financed, LIHTC community.  On several occasions, I have served as a special commissioner for  condemnation proceedings.  Since 1992, I have operated my own firm, David L.

Pallante & Associates, LLC, Houston, TX, 1/92 - present  John Rocco Pallante I have been appraising commercial real estate since 1989.  Geographically, my experience has  encompassed 45 states, plus the District of Columbia.  I have appraised nearly every type of  commercial property, but the majority of my experience has involved office, retail, and  multifamily properties.  Multifamily Market Rate:  I have appraised countless market rate apartment projects, ranging from small Class C properties in  remote locations to trophy assets in major urban centers. Affordable:  Many of my multifamily assignments have involved one or more types of government incentives,  including historic preservation credits, enterprise zones, tax abatement programs, low income housing tax credits  (LIHTC), bond financing, and various HUD programs.  I have written appraisals for properties with FHA-insured  financing, and I am familiar with the HUD MAP Guide.  Student Housing:  As student housing evolved into a specialized asset type over the past 15 years, I have followed  this sector very closely.  This has become a specialty of mine, and I have appraised student apartment projects  throughout the country, including stand-alone college towns and major urban centers, where a property may cater  to multiple colleges and universities.  I have attended conferences on student housing, and I am in constant  communication with several market participants who are actively involved in student housing.  Condos & Condo Conversions:  Utilizing a discounted sell-off methodology, I have appraised several condominium  projects.  These have included purpose-built condo projects, as well as conversions of existing rental properties.   Several assignments have also involved “busted” condo projects, where unsold units have reverted to rentals.  I  personally developed a spreadsheet that permits effective and accurate analysis of interim rental income while  condo units are being sold off over time.  Office  CBD:  I have appraised several major office buildings with CBD locations.  Examples include a high-rise in Denver,  two historic high-rises in Austin, three high-rises in New Orleans, a historic mid-rise in New Orleans, a high-rise in  Dallas, and the only high-rise building in Amarillo.  Suburban:  Suburban office appraisals have reflected all sizes and classes of buildings.  These include a call  center in Colorado Springs, three Class A high-rises in Houston’s Energy Corridor, a Class A high-rise in The  Woodlands, a regional bank headquarters in Greeley, and a unique LEED-certified building in Albuquerque.  Medical Office Buildings:  These are typically specialized buildings, often adjacent to hospitals, and sometimes  including surgical centers.  MOB assignments have taken me to Austin, Detroit, Seattle, Denver, Colorado  Springs, Houston, Syracuse, and Rochester. Retail My retail experience covers all property sub-types, including single-tenant buildings, small strip centers, grocery  anchored neighborhood centers, power centers, major community centers, and regional malls.  I am fully equipped  to analyze multi-tenant assets and evaluate tenant credit strength.  Industrial  A wide range of industrial appraisals have included warehouse, distribution, manufacturing, and flex buildings,  located in markets throughout the country. Hotels  Hotel appraisals have covered some 15 states and include limited service, full service, extended stay, luxury, and  convention hotels.  My experience ranges from a Super 8 motel in Henderson, Kentucky to a historic boutique  hotel in San Francisco, to a proposed Ritz Carlton in Philadelphia.  Special-Use  Over the past 22 years, I have appraised numerous special use properties, including automobile dealerships,  churches, daycare centers, restaurants, automotive repair, convenience stores, private utility companies, self-  storage, and parking facilities (airport, CBD, and mixed-use).  Mixed-Use  Building on my experience with all property types, I have also developed the ability to effectively analyze mixed-  use properties.  These are properties that incorporate multiple use types, whether spread out over a large master-  planned development, or encapsulated within a high-density vertical development.  Perhaps more importantly, I  can walk the reader through the complex analytical process, and present the results in a clear and concise format.   Among many of our clients, I have developed a reputation as the “go to” guy for the most complex mixed-use  assignments. Transit Oriented Developments (TOD):  With many communities across the country actively pursuing or expanding  mass-transit options, there are a growing number of TODs.  These typically include residential, office, retail, and  entertainment components, all clustered around a major transit hub (bus or train station).  I have worked on TOD  appraisals in Utah, Michigan, Colorado, and Texas, including the first TOD built along Austin’s new commuter rail  line. Bloomfield Park:  Over a span of five years, I worked on several market studies and appraisals for various  components of Bloomfield Park, a proposed mixed-use development in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan.  Had it not  failed due to a collapse of the capital markets, this ambitious development would have epitomized the concept of  New Urbanism, incorporating rental apartments, for-sale condominiums, office, retail, entertainment, medical, and  hotel components. Kodak Campus:  One of the larger mixed-use projects I have appraised is a six million square foot office-  manufacturing-warehouse campus in Rochester, New York that formerly served as the world headquarters for  Kodak.  In addition to numerous buildings with a variety of sub-types, this asset included Empire Zone designation  by the State of New York, numerous incentives from local governments, and a private power plant that sold excess  capacity to the local utility company.
