RECON MUMATTON:
It is recommended that the Agency approve the sale of an Agency-owned 10,918 square
foot parcel at the comer ofDeborah Road and Rochelle Road in Desert Park Estates to
Kayla and Moo Naima
BACKGROUND:
In May, 1998,the City Council and Community Redevelopment Agency listed several unused
properties for sale with a local real estate broker. To date,the Ckybas sold oneparcel andthe
Agency has another set of properties(one Citym.and one Agency-owned)under an Exclusive
Agreement to Negotiate, pending the negotiation of a Disposition and Development
Agreement
The subject property in this action is the second Agency-owned parcel to receive an
acceptable offer. It was originally listed for$14,000,the average ofthe three competing
brokers' estimates of value, but was reduced in price to $10,000 in November, 1998
because of a lack of interest in the site on the part ofhomebuilden or home buyers. Staff
received an offer of$7,000 from this buyer in July, 1999. The buyer intends to construct
anew home ofapproximately 2,000 st on the site. Because the offer was lower than the
$10,0001isting price,staffoommissioned R.F.Sweet&Associates to appraise the parcel.
The appraised value was$8,000. Subsequently, staff counter-offered the property at the
appraised value of$8,000. The buyers have not raised their price,and staff recommends
accepting the $7,000 because of the unlikelihood that another offer will come in a
reasonable time period.
Attached is a proposed resolution approving the sale.of this property.
