Statewide Virtual Meeting Wed Dec 8: Flood Risk Monitoring and Mitigation, Even Far Inland
https://masslandlords.net/event-web/2021-12-08-statewide/This presentation will give an overview of how flood water gets into
buildings and what buy-and-hold investors should do about it. We
will focus on the impact climate change is
having on the general trend of rainfall and flooding. Previously dry
buildings may become moist, wet or flooded over time. We will teach
the trends with:- Rainwater,
- River overflow,
- Storm surge, and
- Base sea level rise
This presentation will be highly relevant for inland
owners. We are going to be focused primarily on
rainwater and river flooding, a previously underrated risk for
many properties statewide especially in Franklin County. We are
all familiar with the risk of coastal flooding, this will also
be covered.We will then evaluate different sources for flood risk data and
warnings, including:- Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) resources
- First Street Foundation’s Flood Factor™ (speaker has no affiliation, this will
be a third party appraisal) - Weather apps
Attendees will leave knowing how to
- Prepare existing properties for water,
- Assess new investments in terms of their flood exposure, and
- Develop and maintain hazardous weather plans to reduce your
costs and liabilities.
Part of this event will be presented by Dr. Alicia Wasula,
President of STM Weather. Weather impacts
everyone. Dr. Wasula’s passion is helping you understand how to
use information and science to save time and money, prevent
injuries, and save lives.As an educator, she was driven to help her students understand
tough concepts and make abstract ideas relevant and real. Every
aspect of her business is saturated with that sense of
purpose. Whether she is communicating weather information to
attorneys or juries for litigation purposes, property owners for
weather preparedness training, or community groups, her goal is to
help them understand how the weather works in a way that is relevant
to them and to communicate complex information in an understandable,
relatable way.STM Weather was founded in 2004 as Shade Tree
Meteorology. Originally a forensic-based firm, it has grown over the
years into a full-service meteorological firm. As STM Weather has
grown, they have expanded their services to include weather planning
and trainings, seminars and speaking engagements, and data-driven
consulting which helps answer questions such as “When is the best
time of year to plant tomatoes in my backyard?”, “What is the most
likely weather hazard I will encounter at my location?”, or “What is
the best way to receive weather information?” We are fully committed
to serving each of our clients with kindness and respect, giving
them a scientifically sound, complete analysis, and delivering our
findings in a clear, easy-to-understand manner.Networking time will be moderated by Dana
Fogg. Dana started his rental business in 1994 with his
first Multifamily in Watertown. Since then, Dana and his wife have
purchased and sold rental properties around the Metro West
area. They now have 9 Units in Watertown and Marlborough. Dana is
the Vice President of the Metro West Property Owners Association.Purchase your ticket in just a few clicks!

Statewide Virtual Meeting Thu Dec 9: Pet Rent: Can you charge it? The answer just changed
https://masslandlords.net/event-web/2021-12-09-statewide/This presentation will look at the long-standing prohibition in Massachusetts on charging fees other than first, last, security, and locks. A recent decision has wide-ranging implications for our interpretation of General Law Chapter 186 Section 15b. We will review:
- What the law said before October 28, 2021
- Fleming v. Greystar Management Services, L.P.
- What the law still says (what the decision does not change)
- How we can interpret the decision with respect to ongoing charges in addition to rent
- Whether the decision can be appealed
- Whether you should charge pet rent, or if it’s best to include as many things in “the rent” as possible
Attendees will leave knowing whether and when to update their processes to cite this new case and possibly to charge pet rent, renter’s insurance, amenity fees, and more.
Part of this presentation will be given by attorney Adam
Sherwin. Adam is an experienced real estate litigator with years of
experience representing landlords, property owners, and other real
estate professionals. He has extensive experience litigating real
estate disputes before judges and juries and has obtained favorable
decisions from the Massachusetts Appeals Court and District Court
Appellate Division. He is also a long-time crash course instructor
at the Cambridge headquarters and now virtually over zoom.Networking time will be moderated by Patrick
Sullivan. Patrick has been an avid landlord since 2007 primarily
focusing on multi families in the greater Worcester area. Having
worked in high level IT his whole life he looks at things from a
different perspective which he applies to real estate. He
became a Real Estate agent in 2015 and now primarily focuses on
Sober living facilities for people recently out of drug and alcohol
treatment centers.Purchase your ticket in just a few clicks!
