Mr. Wicklund has 18 years of experience in the affordable multifamily housing industry. As the Vice President of PBCA Programs, he works closely with the Executive Team at Du & Associates to help implement the strategic consulting plans for each of its clients and oversees its multifamily consulting business, including the conversion of public housing units to the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) PBRA program.

Mr. Wicklund’s role also includes the oversight of Du & Associates’ Performance Based Contract Administration (PBCA) portfolio, which encompasses over 1,300 contracts and more than 113,000 units across three states. Before holding this position, he was the Manager of Adjustments and Renewals for our Michigan portfolio, overseeing the processing and review of all contract renewals and rent adjustments completed by analysts for MMAM to ensure accuracy and timeliness of the final results. This includes guiding owners through the process of selecting the correct renewal option, helping to make determinations as to when preservation actions should be taken and administering the application of rent adjustments under the following methods: Budget-Based, Operating Cost Adjustment Factor (OCAF), Annual Adjustment Factor (AAF), Mark-Up-to-Market (MU2M) and Fifth Year Adjustments. Mr. Wicklund has been performing the initial reviews of Rent Comparability Studies (RCS) for the last 10 years and was instrumental in developing a review checklist for use prior to HUD’s first implementation of a standardized checklist in 2014. He has also conducted seminars on these subjects at housing industry meetings and workshops.
