GTA commercial REALTORS report latest commercial market figures
T
oronto Real Estate Board Commercial Network Members reported a year-over-year increase in the total amount of combined industrial, commercial/retail and office space leased through the TorontoMLS system in the first quarter of 2014.
Annual change in average lease rates was mixed. The average commercial lease rate, for properties leased on a per square foot net basis for which pricing was disclosed, was up by almost 23 per cent. Some of this change was due to a different mix of properties leasing this year compared to last. The average industrial lease rate was down only slightly compared to last year and the average office lease rate was down by approximately six per cent. “Since coming out of the recession, we have certainly seen a few false starts as it relates to economic growth, particularly where business investment and exports are concerned. However, the first GDP data point for 2014 was very encouraging. Hopefully, the positive result for first quarter leasing activity in the GTA points to continued economic growth, as businesses take on more space in response to anticipated growth in demand for goods and services produced in southwestern Ontario,” said Commercial Committee Chair Cynthia Lai.
There were 197 combined industrial, commercial/retail and office property sales In Q1 2014, total space leased through the TorontoMLS system in the first quarter of 2014. Average selling prices amounted to 4,517,411 square feet – on a per square foot basis for transactions where pricing was disclosed were up up by 3.6 per cent in comparison to for industrial and commercial/retail properties and down for office properties. In 4,363,905 square feet leased during the addition to market forces, annual price changes also resulted from changes in the mix first three months of 2013. The largest of properties sold, in terms of both size and geography. annual rate of growth was reported “Conditions are in place to support an increase in commercial real estate investment for the office market segment (+29 per cent), followed by the commercial/ in the GTA. The expectation is that the US economy will continue to pick up steam, which should help facilitate the long-awaited recovery in the Canadian export sector. retail segment (+6.9 per cent). The total amount of industrial space leased All of this, coupled with the continuation of accommodative borrowing costs, could prompt an increase in sales activity moving forward,” continued Ms. Lai. was down by less than one per cent year-over-year.

COUPAL MARKOU COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE INC. Waterloo, Ontario, April 24, 2014– Long term business partners, Christopher Coupal and John Markou, launch Coupal Markou Commercial Real Estate Inc., a new commercial real estate brokerage in the Region of Waterloo. The company will be headquartered at its recently renovated building at 150 King Street South, Waterloo. “It has long been our belief that a small group of the right individuals, working together in a collaborative environment, can achieve far more than the sum of the individual parts. We look forward to being a local boutique real estate brokerage focused on servicing our clients’ needs,” stated Christopher Coupal. During their careers, John and Christopher have brokered well in excess of 1 billion dollars of commercial real estate transactions locally. Add to this a small group of experienced sales representatives and we believe we have the best possible team to meet and exceed our clients’ expectations. “It’s not about being the largest firm in the marketplace. For us, it is the collaboration of an experienced team of professionals working together to deliver the best level of service for our clients,” added John Markou. Christopher and John will be joined by Sales Representatives James Craig, Matt Dickson, Michael Conrad, and Peter Kruschen, along with support staff Rhonda Bryll and Paula Tweedle, who collectively have over 140 years of local commercial real estate experience.

CIBC Poll: Declining canaDian Dollar has small Business owners worrieD
As some businesses react by reducing costs or raising prices, most admit they have not taken any steps to protect their business from fluctuations in the dollar
A
new CIBC (TSX: CM) (NYSE: CM) poll conducted by Leger finds more than one-third of small business owners are worried about the impact the falling Canadian dollar will have on their business, yet nearly seven in 10 say they have not taken any steps to protect their business from currency fluctuations. Key findings of the poll of small business owners are:
›› 36 per cent of small business owners say they are worried about the impact of the falling loonie on their business ›› 65 per cent say they have no plans in place to deal with changes in currency Importers are the most likely business owners to be concerned about a lower Canadian dollar, with 86 per cent of this group expressing concern
Within major business sectors, Manufacturing companies are the most concerned about the falling dollar (53 per cent), followed by Wholesale/Retail businesses at 44 per cent “Our poll shows that some small business owners in Canada are feeling the pinch from the falling loonie, which can impact profits and make it harder to compete in certain industries,” says Shelley Swanlund, vice president, Business Banking and Head of Small Business, CIBC.“Many small businesses have become accustomed to a strong dollar, which may explain why many have not considered steps to protect their cash flow and react to the dollar’s decline.” According to the most recent report available from Industry Canada, small businesses contribute as much as 41 per cent to Canada’s GDP. While a lower Canadian dollar can benefit some business sectors like exporting and tourism, the impact on small business is often overlooked, says Ms. Swanlund.

CIBC poll finds that the most popular actions include reduced spending (14 per cent), pricing alterations (13 per cent) and sourcing new or alternative clients or suppliers (10 per cent). “Reducing spending or raising prices are a natural reaction to dealing with a change in cash flow, but may not be sustainable in the long run,” says Ms. Swanlund.“There are steps you can take to mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on your small business through improving your cash flow management, and evaluating your foreign exchange needs to building a plan with your advisor that reduces the impact of a falling dollar on your business.”
to prepare For Fluctuations in the Value oF the canaDian Dollar, ciBc oFFers the Following tips: ›› Have a currency plan. Small business owners should include in their business plans a strategy to manage currency fluctuations. Your bank can help - for example, CIBC small business advisors work with owners to explore options such as holding US dollar accounts and having access to capital to address fluctuations in cash flow. CIBC also offers online tools
such as FX Online, a foreign exchange service for currency purchases, and free business planning tools, such as the CIBC Your Guide to Business Planning, found in the CIBC Small Business Advice Centre. ›› Monitor that plan on an ongoing basis. If Canadian dollar fluctuations could have a significant impact on your business, monitor the environment, discuss with your advisor and make adjustments based on changes in your business needs. ›› Build flexibility into your business model. Currency fluctuations and other unexpected expenses can catch small business owners off guard. Be sure your business can withstand temporary fluctuations in cash flow by having access to an emergency reserve fund, whether it is accumulated savings or a line of credit. CIBC Small Business Services: For more than 140 years, CIBC has been providing small business owners with the advice, services, and support they need to thrive and grow. CIBC recognizes that the business and personal finances of small business owners are often intertwined, which can present both opportunities and challenges. We believe that the best advice comes from someone who understands your needs as a business owner and as an individual.
CIBC provide small business owners with the services of a dedicated CIBC Small Business Advisor, who acts as a single point of contact for all small business owner needs. This experienced professional is committed to understanding the business and the industry in which small business owners operate, as well as their personal financial goals. CIBC business advisors work with small business owners to find integrated solutions to help them achieve their vision for their business and their life. The poll was conducted by Leger through a Web survey from February 12 to 19, 2014 among a representative sample of 500 English- or French-speaking business owners or decision-makers in Canadian companies (not publicly traded or NGO) with 500 employees or less. The results were weighted according to region and number of employees to ensure a sample representative of the entire population under review. CIBC is a leading North American financial institution with nearly 11 million personal banking and business clients.

GREAT OPPORTUNITY GRIMSBY $450,000 - IS THIS YOUR CASH COW?

Commercial Real Estate & Business Opportunities
Before an investor undertakes this task, they should ask themselves; → Is it worthwhile to spend money for renovations if the rents can be increased as a result of the renovations? . → Do the increased rents justify the expense? → Will the increase in value as a result of the renovations justify the expense? First let’s establish how long will it take to recoup the renovation costs? The answer comes down to doing the math.
Hamilton
In the above example the renovation cost was approximately $3,000.00 per unit. After the renovation was complete the rents were increased by an average of $100.00 per month or $1,200.00 annually. It will take 30 months to recoup the expense or in other words the payback on the investment is 2.5 years. That equates to an approximate 40% annual return on the renovation investment, ($1200/$3000 = 40%). But most importantly the total value of the property based on a 7% cap rate had increased by $200,000.00. In this example, it’s clear that the renovations at a cost of $3,000.00 per unit ($30,000 for all 10 units) was a prudent investment
2. Reducing Expenses: Reducing property expenses is often the most cost effective way to improve the NOI and increase value. ✔ Utilities: Assess how much you are paying for heat, water and hydro and then establish how you can reduce these charges. → Water: Conduct routine checks for water leaks and running toilets in each unit → Heat: Check for loss of heat from windows, dirty radiators, old boiler system → Hydro: If you are paying for the unit hydro, remember that old fridges consume more; charge extra for the use of A/C window units and check the timer to the common area and exterior lights. Educate your tenants on the benefits of energy conservation. ✔ Realty Taxes: Are you paying too much realty tax? Let’s face it, paying too much realty tax on investment properties could significantly impact the NOI and dramatically reduce value. Unfortunately most investors take this large expense for granted and assume that the assessment on their investment property is correct and never bother to investigate it.
Volume 14 Issue 04
Should you not agree with the results from the reconsideration process, you still have the option for an appeal. The appeal process is more involved and will not be covered in this article. In reference to the application for the Request for Reconsideration by my client I am pleased to say it was a huge success. The owner received a revised tax assessment and a refund cheque for over $11,000.00. It was not just the refund that was gratifying, the increase in the NOI as a result of the realty tax reduction translated to a huge rise in value. By taking the revised net income and using a market cap rate of 7%, this equated to about a $150,000.00 increase in value!
3. Rental Equipment: Another relatively easy way to reduce your expenses and increase the NOI is to eliminate rental equipment. Make a plan to owning them instead. We continue another real life example of how the property value was increased for a 21 unit apartment building. The hot water tank rental was approximately $300 per month (including taxes) which equated to $3,600 per year. The cost to purchase and install the equipment was approximately $4,000.00. The purchase of this hot water tank was a great investment simply because of the approximate one year payback! But more importantly, this change also increased the property value by simply reducing of the operating expenses (or increasing the NOI) by $3,600.00 per year. How much would the property value increase after this relatively low investment? To assess the impact of the $3,600.00 of extra income that was generated by reducing the annual hot water rental expense, we need to divide this amount by the market Cap Rate. Let’s assume the current market Cap Rate is 7.0%, therefore by dividing by this Cap Rate the value had increased by $51,000.00, just by improving the NOI. ($3,600/7.0% = $51,000.00).
The above scenarios demonstrate how simple investment undertakings produced a tremendous return rate and helped generate a huge increase in The above scenarios demonstrate how simple investment undertakings produced a property value. One can now clearly see that increasing rents and or lowering rate and helped generate a huge increase in property value. One can now clearly s expenses, (even if it requires expenditure to do so), is a wise decision. rents and or lowering expenses, (even if it requires expenditure to do so), is a wise d
On the first real life scenario, the property was just sold for a $300,000.00 On the first real life scenario, the property was just sold for a $300,000.00 profit, afte profit, after only one year of ownership. ownership.
Remember, it is all about the NOI. Remember, it is all about the NOI.
The reality is that many landlords are paying too much realty tax without being aware of it. As an owner, you should make a point to investigate if you are paying too much realty tax on all your properties. I would like to share another real life experience of how an owner reduced his property tax by over $10,000.00 per year. In a transaction about 4 years ago, I noted that the property tax on my client’s new acquisition (a 20 unit apartment building in Hamilton On) appeared to be extremely high, based on my many comparables. Doing a quick check I calculated that the realty tax was about $12,000.00 too high. The first step was to ask MPAC to review the assessment through a simple on line application called Request for Reconsideration (RfR)” Do your homework by obtaining the assessments on similar properties. If you are convinced your property is over assessed, then simply go to the MPAC website and follow the instructions; download, and fully complete the (RfR) form. A local assessment officer will be appointed to review your application. Once the officer completes his investigation you will be notified on their decision.

GREATER TORONTO AREA OFFICE MARKET IN MIDST OF CORRECTION AVISON YOUNG RELEASES ITS FIRST QUARTER 2014 GREATER TORONTO AREA OFFICE MARKET REPORT
T
he Greater Toronto Area (GTA) office market closed out the first quarter of 2014 the way it ended 2013 – on a negative note. Anemic and sporadic demand across the various markets and building classes, coupled with a stubborn sublet market, has translated into five consecutive quarters of negative absorption.
These are some of the key trends noted in Avison Young’s First Quarter 2014 Greater Toronto Area Office Market Report, released recently. “Though overall absorption levels have deteriorated over the past five quarters, we should not be sounding the alarm bells,” comments Bill Argeropoulos, vice-president and director of Research (Canada) for Avison Young.“Clearly, the rate at which
the market has been expanding over the past 10 years – and especially during the development cycle of the past five years – indicates the need for a correction, and the present state of the market should be seen as such. Job growth is only one of several factors affecting office space demand. For example, the trend for more efficient space planning means that tenants require less space to accommodate the same number of employees, possibly resulting in absorption figures below historical norms going forward.” As noted in the first-quarter report, during the past five quarters, more space has become vacant than has been leased. In all, 1.3 million square feet (msf), or an average of 254,000 square feet (sf) per quarter, has been vacated. This total pales in comparison to the dot-com failure in 2001-2002, when nearly 5.8 msf (969,000 sf per quarter) was returned to the market over six quarters.
inthenews
Negative absorption levels have caused other leading indicators, such as availability and vacancy rates, to continue to trend higher. The vacancy rate (physically unoccupied space) across all building classes increased a further 20 basis points (bps) from year-end 2013 to end the first quarter of 2014 at 9.4 per cent, and is poised to surpass the 10 per cent mark in the coming quarters. By comparison, vacancy stood at 8.1 per cent in the same quarter one year ago. Argeropoulos continues: “The more telling indicator may very well be the availability rate, which includes occupied office space that is being marketed for lease today and could potentially become vacant six, 12, 18 or even 36 months out. This figure is already in double-digit territory (12.1 per cent), having climbed by 260 bps in the past year alone. Between 2000 and 2013, the GTA average spread between the availability and vacancy rates was approximately 170 bps. It’s now at its widest point: 270 bps.” Of concern is the state of Toronto’s Downtown market (10.5 per cent availability rate vs. 6.3 per cent vacancy) and its ability to absorb another wave of development where the bulk (5 msf of the GTA’s 7.3 msf) is currently underway. The 420-bps spread between the availability and vacancy rate downtown encompasses some large contiguous blocks of space in the market’s landmark towers, such as TD Canada Trust Tower, Bay-Wellington Tower and Ernst & Young Tower at the TD Centre complex – the result of the impending movement of tenants into the new developments. For tenants still in the market for space in new developments, of the 214 full floors currently under construction downtown, 88 are still available for lease. The report goes on to say that developments currently under construction downtown continued to attract interest in the first quarter. Sun Life Financial announced that it will consolidate its operations from 150 and 225 King St. W. into 300,000 sf at 1 York St. in Downtown South (also taking a 30 per cent equity interest in the building), while Entertainment One inked a 70,000-sf deal at QRC West Phase I in Downtown West. Sublet availability remains stubbornly high in the GTA at 3.7 msf, with the highest concentrations being in Downtown (1.4 msf) and the suburban Toronto West (1.3 msf) market. Midtown Toronto saw higher availability and vacancy rates during the quarter compared with year-end 2013, as space was given back in class B buildings in the St. Clair and Eglinton nodes. The Bloor node, with sub-5 per cent vacancy, is among the healthiest markets in the GTA. The suburban markets continue to be saddled with doubledigit availability (14.1 per cent) and vacancy (12.4 per cent) rates, with Toronto North (8.5 per cent) bucking the trend – for now. CARA’s decision to introduce 100,000 sf to the sublet market at 199 Four Valley Dr. in Vaughan will push availability and vacancy rates in Toronto North higher next quarter. Toronto West and Toronto East have the most buildings
with more than 50,000 sf of available office space (36 and 21 buildings, respectively). Toronto West offers occupiers a plethora of space options in existing product as well as in the 1.5 msf (62 per cent preleased) currently under construction (of 2.3 msf in the suburbs overall). Argeropoulos concludes: “The numbers don’t necessarily tell the whole story without a broader understanding of the marketplace. Despite the somewhat gloomy figures to date, numerous tenants of all sizes are poised to take advantage of the opportunity to secure premises in the more exposed assets, perhaps at more favourable rates – with the flight to quality becoming ever more apparent. And, with respect to the new developments and residual vacancy in existing stock, there is optimism that the space will be taken up as the current trend of urban living and working continues to drive shifting demographics, providing a sense of stability in downtown Toronto.” Avison Young is the world’s fastest-growing commercial real estate services firm.

Bank of Canada
maintains overnight rate target at 1 per cent
T
he Bank of Canada recently announced that it is maintaining its target for the overnight rate at 1 per cent. The Bank Rate is correspondingly 1 1/4 per cent and the deposit rate is 3/4 per cent.
Inflation in Canada remains low. Core inflation is expected to stay well below 2 per cent this year due to the effects of economic slack and heightened retail competition, and these effects will persist until early 2016. However, higher consumer energy prices and the lower Canadian dollar will exert temporary upward pressure on total CPI inflation, pushing it closer to the 2 per cent target in the coming quarters. We expect total CPI inflation will remain close to target throughout the projection, even as upward pressure from energy prices dissipates, because the impact of retail competition will gradually fade and excess capacity will be absorbed. The global economic expansion is expected to strengthen over the next three years as headwinds that have been restraining activity dissipate. The economic recovery in the United States appears to be on track, despite soft readings in the last few months largely due to unusual weather. Indeed, private demand could turn out to be stronger than anticipated. Europe’s economy is growing modestly, but inflation remains too low and the nascent recovery could be undermined by risks emanating from the Russia-Ukraine situation. In China and other emerging-market economies growth is expected to be solid, although there are growing concerns about financial vulnerabilities. Overall, global growth is expected to pick up to 3.3 per cent in 2014 and increase further to 3.7 per cent in 2015 and 2016 - largely unchanged from the January Monetary Policy Report (MPR). The Bank continues to expect Canada’s real GDP growth to average about 2 1/2 per cent in 2014 and 2015 before easing to around the 2 per cent growth rate of the economy’s potential in 2016. Competitiveness challenges continue to weigh on Canadian exporters’ ability to benefit from stronger growth abroad. However, a range of export subsectors have been growing in line with fundamentals, which suggests that as the U.S. recovery gathers momentum and becomes more broadlybased, many of our exports will benefit. The lower Canadian dollar should provide additional support. We continue to believe that rising global demand for Canadian goods and services, combined with the assumed high level of oil prices, will stimulate business investment in Canada and shift the economy to a more sustainable growth track. Recent developments are in line with the Bank’s expectation of a soft landing in the housing market and stabilizing debt-to-income ratios for households. Still, household imbalances remain elevated and would pose a significant risk should economic conditions deteriorate. In sum, the Bank continues to see a gradual strengthening in the fundamental drivers of growth and inflation in Canada. This view hinges critically on the projected upturn in exports and investment. With underlying inflation expected
to remain below target for some time, the downside risks to inflation remain important. At the same time, the risks associated with household imbalances remain elevated. The Bank judges that the balance of these risks remains within the zone for which the current stance of monetary policy is appropriate and therefore has decided to maintain the target for the overnight rate at 1 per cent. The timing and direction of the next change to the policy rate will depend on how new information influences the balance of risks. The next scheduled date for announcing the overnight rate target is 4 June 2014. The next full update of the Bank’s outlook for the economy and inflation, including risks to the projection, will be published in the MPR on 16 July 2014.

BMO Nesbitt Burns tax study: Only half Of Canadians regularly seek Out tax effiCient OptiOns when making investment deCisiOns
B
MO Nesbitt Burns issued a study which found that only half (51 per cent) of Canadians regularly seek out tax-smart options when considering new investments. The study also found that a majority of Canadians say they are lacking knowledge about the tax treatment of certain types of investment income that can reduce their overall tax liability: Fifty-nine per cent are unsure how capital gains are taxed. Similarly, 59 per cent are uncertain how dividend income is treated from a tax perspective. “One of the reasons why people don’t seek out tax efficient investing solutions may very well be because many don’t fully understand how investments are taxed,” said John Waters, Vice-President, Head of Tax & Estate Planning, BMO Nesbitt Burns.“Being aware of how investments are affected by taxes is the first step to being tax smart with your portfolio, and can be crucial in maximizing your overall return.” Mr. Waters noted that an Investment Advisor can play a critical role in helping clients understand the tax implications when investing and working with clients to determine investment solutions that best fit their specific needs and goals. BMO Investments Inc. offers a variety of tax smart investing options, including BMO SelectClass Portfolios – a series of four risk differentiated portfolios constructed within a corporate class structure which allow investors to accumulate capital in a tax-efficient manner, through tax-deferred growth potential and tax-efficient monthly cash flow.
Do charitable Donations influence canaDians’ tax Decisions? The study also found that the majority (54 per cent) of respondents stated that tax credits offered on charitable donations do not have much (or any) influence on their decision to give. “The tax system is designed to encourage Canadians to donate and support charitable causes, so there’s definitely an incentive for people to consider factoring giving into their yearly budget,” said Mr. Waters.“Donating to charity provides not only the opportunity to do good, but can also reduce your income tax bill and put a little money back into your pocket.” Mr. Waters added that donations can be claimed in the tax year they were made or carried forward for up to five years. To optimize tax savings, spouses can pool their charitable donations. Additionally, incentives like the “First-Time Donor’s Super Credit” (FTDSC), which is available until 2017, encourages Canadians to support charities by giving new donors an extra, one-time 25 per cent federal tax credit for cash donations up to a maximum of $1,000. For example, under the FTDSC, with a donation of $500 the federal tax savings to you would be $242, which is in addition to the savings from your provincial donation tax credit. regional breakDown: Percentage of people who regularly seek out tax efficient investment options when considering a new investment: National: 51%; Atlantic 38%; Quebec 59%; Ontario 50%; Prairies 51%; Alberta 51%; B.C. 45% Percentage of people who are not very or at all knowledgeable about how capital gains are taxed: National 59%; Atlantic 72%; Quebec 66%; Ontario 55%; Prairies 63%; Alberta 52%; B.C. 53%.

Mortgages
New Lending Rules and Practices Are you a real estate investor that has run out of options for purchasing rental properties? Are you self-employed and successful in your career, yet cannot get a mortgage? You are not alone! Having been in the mortgage business now for over 15 years, I have seen many new rules and regulations introduced by various governments. Some changes have worked well and others...not so well. The recent federal changes to borrowing/lending criteria involving cutting back loan-to-value (LTV) ratios from 85% to 80% and amortization periods from 30 to 25 years on insured mortgages has certainly impacted the industry. Of far greater impact and consequence are guidelines issued from the Office of Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada (OSFI). OSFI has issued practices and procedure guidelines impacting all federallyregulated financial institutions on residential mortgages of 1 to 4 units and include home equity lines of credit. The impact is only starting to make itself felt as various financial institutions have re-worked and are re- working their lending practices and criteria. The results are becoming dramatic and are beginning to significantly impact the industry. One result of these changes is that many mortgage brokers have become challenged with finding appropriate financing for smaller investment properties. Lenders and other institutions have now virtually ended small rental property financing. Further, self- employed stated income or low documentation loans and lines of credit have been reduced to 65% (reference “income verification” and “non-conforming loan principles”). Institutional mortgage lending to self-employed investors has been dramatically affected. Small real investors who have rental properties which were financed some years ago, may be looking at injecting additional cash into their properties for things like improvements and life-cycle repairs. With Banks no longer offering the financing that was available 5 years ago, much stress is now being created. We recently had a client (who is self-employed) who purchased 2 properties some 5 years ago. He wanted to put additional cash into the properties to improve them. However, he was not in a position to contribute his own additional cash equity into the property. Even though the property values have increased, and the investment has run very smoothly with principal loan amounts repaid as part of the amortized mortgage, the investor could not get more than 65% financing based on his specific circumstance. 5 years ago he received 95% LTV financing! What is the solution to these new restrictions and limitations? The answer is private lending. There are no “rules” imposed on private lending. Pro Funds Mortgages has been focusing on private lending in the recent years. Interest costs are higher, but lending documentation and criteria is not regulated. Different private lenders set their own rules and lending criteria. Often, the strength of the real estate security is of greatest importance. If you are self-employed, or if you are buying a student rental, or if you are buying an investment or a home that needs renovations or may not be complete, or if you are buying in a region that may not be on the Banks list to lend on, or if this is an investment or rental property (large or small), Private lending may be the best approach. We can get the mortgage done. We have lenders that will lend up to 85% loan-to-value in most cases (and up to 90% on exceptions). Why let the banks deter your investment direction and activities. There is (almost) always a way. With the historically low interest rates of today, perhaps a business case can be made to invest with private funds at slightly higher interest rate. It is certainly worth exploring. If you are looking for a mortgage and cannot seem to get approved by our Banks then give this option a shot. On the other side, if you are an investor and have RRSPs and cash, this is your time to get involved in investing in mortgages as a lender. New doors are now opening for both borrowers and lenders.

More than what you bargained for Inheriting tenants with a commercial property
U
sually a home or property inspector can give you a good idea of the condition of the real estate you are buying. Unfortunately, the one thing an inspector cannot tell you is whether tenants will come with the property, and if they are any good. Purchasing a commercial property with existing tenants can be a great way to hedge investment losses in the property. In addition, having them there will save you the time and expense of advertising to fill vacancies and can help you secure financing for the purchase of the property. However, beware. Having tenants brings with it exposure to several types of liability, in many cases dictated by the commercial lease in place and real estate law. As a landlord it is important to understand there may be certain obligations for which you are responsible and understanding these obligations is critical to ensure you get what you bargained for. Prior to purchasing a commercial property where you will be inheriting tenants:
Meet the tenants. It is important to discuss with them any complaints that they have with the property. This will help you gauge whether you will have a good working relationship with your future tenants, and will also provide valuable insight into potential issues with the property. If you have many tenants, or you do not want to deal with your tenants directly, discuss the options for engaging a property management company with your lawyer. Know your rights. When you purchase a commercial property, any leases relating to the property will usually be assigned to you at the time of closing. If you consent to this assignment you will be bound to the terms of those leases. For example, these obligations could require that you remove snow from driveways, install or
14G COM
maintain security systems, pay for utilities, etc. Generally speaking, existing leases and then the Ontario Commercial Tenancies Act will govern your relationship with the tenant going forward. Know your tenant’s rights. The lease will describe your tenant’s rights and the remedies he or she has against you if a dispute arises. These remedies may include abatement of rent payments, court or arbitration, or even cancellation of the lease. Be sure to have a lawyer review the lease and explain how you may be exposed to liability. Review the leases prior to purchase. The leases will list your responsibilities to the tenant and vice-versa. These rights are impacted by the law relating to commercial tenancies as well. Be sure to make ‘Review the leases by your lawyer and that they meet his or her satisfaction,’ a condition of any agreement of purchase and sale. If you don’t like what you hear, it is not necessarily the end of the deal; you may be able to renegotiate the terms of the lease or the agreement of purchase and sale. Commercial leases are very complex and intimidating documents; however, understanding your obligations and your tenants’ rights will allow you to feel comfortable knowing that your exposure is limited. These documents function to maintain stability, predictability and in short, the status quo. Landlord-Tenant disputes often arise when a lease obligation is not being fulfilled or is unable to be filled, resulting in issues with the property. Ideally, the landlord and tenant should keep a good relationship in order to be able to resolve these disputes amicably without resorting to the court system or other formal dispute resolution mechanisms. Commercial leases require a lawyer familiar with the concepts and the law. Find a lawyer that has experience in the area because you will need a lawyer just as much after your closing as you did before. Perhaps the most difficult part of writing these articles relates not to the actual writing, but thinking of a topic to address. Please mail, deliver or fax letters to the magazine or to us, use the website (schwarzlaw.ca), email (schwarz@schwarzlaw.ca), or phone us at 1-888-609-8888 and give us your questions, concerns, critiques and quandaries. We will try to deal with them in print or electronic form.

Labour shortages worse for smaller businesses – CANADA JOB GRANT COULD HELP
A
ccording to the latest Help Wanted report from the Canadian Federation of Independent Business’ (CFIB), approximately 296,000 full and part-time job vacancies were reported in the fourth quarter of 2013. The overall vacancy rate remained virtually unchanged from the previous quarter, at 2.5 per cent.
These results are based on regular surveys of CFIB members on economic and business conditions, including shortages of qualified labour. Job vacancies in the quarterly report are defined as openings that remain unfilled for at least four months because business owners have been unable to find suitable employees. “It’s not as simple as matching any unemployed Canadian with any job opening. Often, the people and the jobs are at opposite ends of the country,” said Ted Mallett, CFIB’s chief economist and vice-president.“And for highly specialized jobs, it becomes that much harder to find the people with the right skills and experience.” The smallest businesses (between one and four employees) continue to bear the brunt of labour shortages, with a vacancy rate of 4.6 per cent. Broken down by region, the vacancy rate was highest in Saskatchewan and Alberta (3.7 per cent). Newfoundland and Labrador (2.8), Manitoba (2.7) and British Columbia (2.6) were also above the national average. Prince Edward

Island and Nova Scotia continued to have the lowest vacancy rates in Canada (1.9), followed by New Brunswick and Ontario (2.1). Quebec’s job vacancy rate remained stable, right at the national average of 2.5 per cent. By industry, retail, hospitality and construction remain the sectors with the most job openings in Canada, each with more than 35,000 potential job openings nation-wide. Most sectors have not seen major changes over the last several quarters, with a slight increase in vacancies in the transportation sector offset by a slight downturn in oil and gas. “Although unemployment continues to be a problem in many regions, lingering labour shortages in certain parts of the economy are no less real,” added Mallett. CFIB president Dan Kelly is in Germany with Minister of Employment and Social Development Jason Kenney, where they are studying that country’s delivery of job training. Says Kelly of the seeming contradiction: “The labour market doesn’t always excel at bringing workers and jobs together. Sometimes it needs a little help, and we look forward to seeing how training programs like the new Canada Job Grant will address this mismatch going forward.” “I was really impressed how careers in the trades are celebrated in Germany,” added Kelly.“Canada has a long way to go in removing societal and education system biases against trades training.” The full report is available online, cfib.ca. CFIB is Canada’s largest association of small and medium-sized businesses with 109,000 members across every sector and region.
