RECORD NUMBER OF CANADIAN BUSINESSES LOOKING AT DEALS, DESPITE TOUGH ECONOMY

L

Opportunities exist for strategic, innovative deals

•D •L r •U •$

A

ccording to EY’s latest Canadian Capital Confidence Barometer, confidence in the Canadian economy is down significantly compared to six months earlier. Despite this pessimism, 72 per cent of Canadian businesses reported they’re planning at least one deal in the next 12 months – that’s up from 24 per cent in October, and the highest since EY’s survey launched in 2009.

“Many Canadian companies are to looking to mergers and acquisitions to address challenges in their existing business,” says Doug Jenkinson, a partner in EY’s Transaction Advisory Services practice.“While Canadian executives aren’t overly optimistic about our country’s economy, that sentiment isn’t holding them back when it comes to looking at deals. Even in Alberta’s distressed oilpatch, we’re still seeing deals get done, and there are surely opportunities for those companies that are strategic.”

According to the survey, 100 per cent of Canadian respondents saw the global economy as either stable or improving. But when looking at our own country’s economy, while 57 per cent see it as stable, only 13 per cent thought it was improving.

Pip McCrostie, EY’s global vice chair, Transaction Advisory Services, says: “The low price of oil and currency fluctuations are viewed as a challenge, further elevating the need for cost reduction in the short term for many businesses. But this volatility is also driving M&A momentum through increased consolidation and executives searching for growth outside their domestic market.”

In Canada, companies report they’re looking south for investment opportunities – to the US (as always), but also to South America. Columbia, Chile and Argentina are all in the top five investment destinations, which is consistent with Canada’s focus on the natural resources sector.

“Canadian companies are also looking right at home for investment opportunities,” says Jenkinson.“For the first time, Canada appears on the top five investment destinations.”

2115_

L

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE SURVEY INCLUDE: › 91 per cent expect to complete more deals than in the prior year

•T W •5 •S •$

2115_

› 88 per cent say largest deal in the next 12 months will be $250m or less

S

› 91 per cent are focused on cross border M&A in the next 12 months “After years of adopting a ‘wait-and-see’ attitude, Canadians now seem ready to take a rational approach to re-entering the transactions arena,” says Jenkinson.“For those that are strategic, pursuing the right opportunities can help them emerge from these tougher economic times stronger, and in a position to thrive.”

About the survey: EY’s Capital Confidence Barometer is a survey of more than 1,600 senior executives from large companies around the world and across industry sectors. The Barometer’s objectives are to gauge corporate confidence in the economic outlook, understand boardroom priorities over the next 12 months and identify the emerging capital practices that will distinguish companies that build competitive advantage as the global economy continues to evolve. This is the twelfth twice-yearly Barometer in the series, which began in November 2009.

EY is proudly celebrating 150 years in Canada.

PROTECTING YOUR INVESTMENT

L a C u ch a r a ch a - T h e C o c k ro a c h - Part 1

end of their notoriety. Most people think of them as dirty, filthy, useless pests that infest our buildings.

Here was simple solution that solved the problem and also provided additional fire stopping protection. Note that Bicarbonate soda is used in fire extinguishers.

Here was an inexpensive, safe, environmentally friendly solution. We trained several teams of contractors to commence the work in all apartments and then stopped.

Simple Solution - BUT !!!

Several years ago we were asked to solve a major cockroach epidemic in two older high rise apartment buildings housing over 400 apartments. After careful research we discovered that a long time “old fashion” solution was to place “baking soda” mixed with sugar, or “Boracic Acid,” in the infested areas.

We experimented in one apartment unit that was infested with hundreds of cockroaches. We placed baking soda throughout the unit in areas of potential moisture such as pipes and in pipe chases. After a few days all cockroaches were dead. After six months there were still no roaches.

Problem? We were advised by our client’s solicitor that we would be subject to prosecution by the provincial government if we proceeded because “baking soda” was not on their approved list of extermination chemicals and we would have to take courses to be certified as an exterminators and use only approved chemicals as this was a rental property.

Regulations resulted in the termination of our program.

Exterminators were hired and used chemicals to kill.

The problem is still there years later. Sorry we cannot condone the use of the “Baking Soda” solution for owners of rental buildings.

However, homeowner’s are not regulated. You can try it.

The famous Spanish song La Cucharacha in English means The Cockroach. That is the

BUILDING PERMITS SOAR 11.6 PER CENT IN MARCH

A

ccording to the Statistics Canada, the value of Canadian building permits increased 11.6 per cent to $6.9 billion in March. Not only is this the first time in three months that Canada has seen an increase in the total value of building permits, but this is the highest increase in six months. The report noted that construction intentions heightened in both the residential and non-residential sectors, and far exceeded economists’ prediction of a 2.5-per-cent increase.

Construction intentions for multi-family dwellings increased significantly in march, growing 19.6 per cent to $201 billion. The total number of authorized construction

units increased 24.9 per cent from the previous month to 18,586, and the vast majority were for multi-family dwellings. Of these authorized units, 13,126 are for multi-family dwellings, while the other 5,460 units are for single-family dwellings.

For the second consecutive month, the value of single-family building permits decreased, falling 3.4 per cent to $2.3 billion.

British Columbia, Ontario and Alberta experienced the largest increase in the total value of building permits. British Columbia had an increase in every building construction component, most notably multi-family dwellings, as well as commercial and institutional buildings. Ontario’s increase was attributed to multi-family dwellings, and Alberta’s increase was due to higher construction intentions for institutional and commercial buildings, and multi-family dwellings. Quebec, on the other hand, had the largest decrease, which was due to the lower construction intentions for multi-family dwellings.

Higher construction intentions were evident in most metropolitan areas.

Vancouver, Toronto and Calgary were the top three metropolitan areas showing the largest increase in the total value of permits. Montreal showed the highest decrease in total value of building permits, which was largely the result of lower construction intentions for multi-family dwellings. Edmonton and KitchenerCambridge-Waterloo also showed large declines due to a significant decrease from the residential sector.

Should condo investors fear THE RENTAL APARTMENT BOOM?

E

very month, a new rental tower is being announced in Toronto.

Existing condo sites are being converted into rental buildings, and upcoming highrise sites that last year would almost certainly be condos are today being proposed as rentals.

In Toronto, virtually no purpose built rental apartment buildings have been built over the last 20 years. In fact, the bulk of rental apartment buildings was built in the ’60s and ’70s. Some are describing Toronto’s rental renaissance as a“rental boom,”and although that moniker is probably taking things too far, it’s true that this is a definite trend worth taking note of – especially if you’re a condo investor or are planning to become one.

There are five major forces at play that all point to the fact that the rental apartment boom is actually good news for condo investors.

MORE SITES THAT WOULD NORMALLY HAVE BEEN CONDOS ARE NOW APARTMENTS: Institutional investors and pension funds are always looking for stable long-term returns.

Owning rental housing in a growing metropolis is the definition of a stable long-term asset that provides income.

No one is selling any rental buildings (the returns are too good, why would they?) so they have to build new ones themselves. Pension funds also want to take advantage of today’s low interest rates where they can lock in construction financing now and enjoy the great returns in the future.

NEW CONDO LAUNCHES DOWN IN 2015: There has been only one new project with 116 units added to the downtown core so far in 2015 – Design Haus Condos. This is unprecedented in the last six years. Since 2009, I’ve never seen this long a stretch with no new launches. Now, don’t get me

wrong. We are expecting some great new launches this year but it is clear that 2015 will fall short of the 2014 and 2013 figures for new product being added to the key downtown core market.

It all adds up to this: less available condo sites, plus less new condo supply, means rising condo prices in the future.

PRICES AND RENTS ARE INCREASING DESPITE RECORD COMPLETIONS: There has been a record number of new condo completions over the last 12 months in Toronto. All the condo bears have been waiting years for this massive surge of new condo supply to hit the rental and resale markets, causing prices to crash. Well, it finally happened, and how did the market respond? Rents are up about one per cent, and condo prices are up three to five per cent – encouraging signs for condo investors.

If the condo market can not only withstand this kind of record-high completion rate, but actually see price increase in the face of it, then the future is very bright for this market – especially in the years ahead like 2017-2018, when it is expected that the number of completions will be much lower than they are right now based on the lack of recent new launches.

DETACHED PRICES CONTINUE TO SOAR OUT OF REACH: The average price of a detached home in Toronto is now over $1 million. Who can afford to buy a house for a million dollars? Very few people. Actually, only those people who are already in the housing market for at least five years and have built up substantial equity that they carry over. There are essentially no first-time buyers coming to Toronto any more.

Institutional investors see this as another key reason to get into the rental housing business now. There will be more and more people “giving up on home ownership.” as one recent article put it, in the years to come, and they will be long-term renters.

Just like other major cities in the world, expect the home-ownership rate in Toronto to slowly decrease over the next decade.

Individual investors will reap the benefits. More renters and fewer home buyers means increased demand and pricing for condos. Prices and rents for condos will continue to grow as long as new supply is held in check which we already discussed it will be.

MILLENIALS PREFER RENTING: This is another driver of the rental apartment boom. Mobility is the new currency of millennials. They love being able to move to different neighbourhoods every year, take a new job and try a new city. Travel and experiences trump cars and white picket fences for this generation, many of which were under age 35 in Toronto. Expect that number to push past 40 for most homebuyers in the future.

These five trends all point to the fact that those with foresight to invest in the condo market today will continue to reap the benefits in the years ahead.

The Importance of Using Leverage

Vol

w

Hamilton

What is leverage? It is an effective investment strategy of using borrowed money to generate higher investment returns. When you actually stop to look at the everyday real estate transactions, (buying a home)… a home purchase with only 20% down payment is actually using leverage!

A c r

The key to leverage is the power of using “other people’s money (0PM) for a greater return. It should be noted that some sellers are willing to finance some or most of the purchase price of the property they wish to sell. Under such an arrangement, you can use leverage to purchase a property with very little money down.

The fact of the matter is, using leverage in real estate investing is an exciting way to earn big yields on small dollars, and you should not fear taking a chance. When you are building real estate wealth, leverage will help you grow quickly without involving too much risk (as long as you watch out for some pitfalls, which will be discussed later). High leveraged investing in real estate is especially powerful when inflation is in full swing. High leverage investors have numbers going for them because property values rise faster than the interest charges on their borrowed money.

Example: For example, with a $100,000.00 investment (10% down payment) an investor can acquire a property worth as much as $1,000,000.00. The buyer is essentially using a relatively small percentage of his or her own money to make the purchase, and the majority of the money is being provided by the lender. Real estate investors often refer to the remainder of the purchase price as "other people's money," since persons other than the borrower provided the money needed to make the purchase.

Rewards: Assuming the property appreciates at 5% per year, the borrower's net worth from this purchase would grow by $50,000.00 in just 12 months. (5% x 8171452_2115

$1,000,000). It is the capital appreciation of the asset that brings wealth. In other words, the 100,000 investment produced a return of $50,000.00!

And that is not all! Remember that we have not factored in the debt reduction and cash flow over time. With a long term hold you will benefit from, the mortgage reduction, positive cash flow and increase in property value.

The Risk: To a lot of people, leverage means risk. The reason is that with leverage you may run the risk of unexpected negative cash flow that could risk the investment. Assure the income generated from the property is able to support the expenses and all the carrying costs. Also be aware of unforeseen capital expenditures or sudden increase in interest rates which may tremendously impact the property cash flow. To reduce that risk, always remember the old saying that “cash is king”; therefore unless you have deep pockets, you should always leave yourself a healthy cash reserve for the unexpected.

Summary: As we've demonstrated, using leverage in Real Estate offers a number of advantages you simply cannot achieve in other investment vehicles.

This explains in part why most wealthy individuals have either made or now hold the majority of their wealth in Real Estate. It is my sincere belief that when you compare the returns, risks and barriers to success, Real Estate should be a component of every successful investor's portfolio.

HAMILTON IS CANADA’S AFFORDABLE, ATTRACTIVE ‘ANCHOR CITY’ says Colliers International Report

T

he ‘Steel City’ of Hamilton, reinvented as a home to leading Canadian healthcare advancements, world class education, research and development is now positioned as a newly-identified ‘Anchor City’ for future growth, according to a report released by Colliers International Inc.

“Hamilton is to Toronto what Milwaukee is to Chicago, with each city having very similar populations,” said Sydney Hamber, senior vice president at Colliers International Inc. in Burlington, ON. “With rising costs and infrastructure strains such as longer commute times associated with locating in large metropolitan areas, companies have the opportunity to locate in medium-sized cities like Hamilton, which have key attributes that make it very attractive,” he said.

The Colliers International Report identified Hamilton, Ontario, Canada as an anchor city for future growth with five key attributes important to corporations to improve corporate balance sheets and attract and retain the best employees.

“Over the past 25 years, Hamilton has been very impressive at reinventing itself. Today, it stands as one of the most attractive environments for various industries,” added Hamber.

“Compared to Toronto, our Report identifies Hamilton as relatively lower in overall costs; it has highly skilled labour, redevelopment opportunities, much lower commute times and a full range of lifestyle amenities. Framed within these five attributes, Hamilton is further affirming itself as an opportune medium-sized anchor city,” he said.

The city has lower commercial and residential costs which are becoming increasingly valuable location determinants for companies. Competitive average rents, overall residential affordability, commercial taxes and development charges are all cost-related factors that are important for midsized anchor cities in attracting businesses.

Hamilton also has an educated labour force as proximity to educated individuals, talented professionals and skilled workers within similar industries such as education and healthcare has become more essential as locational imperatives for companies.

“With new developments throughout the city, particularly in the downtown core, and a new operational GO station this summer, Hamilton is an ideal location for companies looking to expand or relocate. Hamilton is affordable not only in terms of overall operating cost, but also affordability for their employees in the residential market,” said Jason Thorne, general manager, Planning and Economic Development at the City of Hamilton.

“People and businesses are drawn to Hamilton for a whole variety of reasons – from our thriving arts and culture scene, job opportunities in Canada’s most diversified economy, and the chance to be part of an urban renaissance that is truly exciting,” added Thorne.

“At Planning and Economic Development, we’ve established a very clear goal for ourselves – to make Hamilton the best place in the country to start or grow a business,” he said.

The report also noted redevelopment opportunities as a key factor for midsized cities. Upgrading current office stock, complemented by relocation incentives through government programs, assist and attracting companies looking for these amenities.

Commute times and transportation availability have become prime benefit-drivers for mid-sized anchor cities. Primary commuter infrastructure such as access to roadways, highways, public transit and bikeways can give certain cities a measureable competitive advantage in attracting business.

This report also showed that companies have been putting increasing value on local amenities for employees when choosing a location to do business, as certain amenities are deemed important by the type of employees companies wish to attract.

Hamber added,“A liveable city is more than just having a home and a backyard and in great communities, people are now fully engaging with their community. Today, it’s about having things to do and experience, places to do them and a decent climate in which to do them.”

GTA REALTORS REPORT commercial market figures

T

oronto Real Estate Board President Paul Etherington announced that TREB Commercial Network Members reported a strong year-over-year increase in leasing activity through TREB’s MLS system in April. Combined industrial, commercial/retail and office space leased on a per square foot net basis, with pricing disclosed, was up by 79 per cent in comparison to the same period last year.

The industrial market segment led the way with almost double the amount of space leased this year compared to last. The increase in industrial leasing was driven by deals reported in larger size categories.

These types of larger deals were absent in April 2014. The number of transactions and amount of space leased can be volatile, especially when considering monthly statistics.

Changes in average lease rates in April were mixed. The average industrial lease rate was down to $5.11 per square foot net compared to $5.37 last year. This dip was due to the increased share of larger properties leased this year. Larger properties tend to lease for less on a per square foot basis.

Average commercial/retail lease rates were up to $21.32 per square foot net compared to $19.00 last year and average office lease rates were down slightly to $13.06 per square foot net.

“Following an increase in leasing in the first quarter, strong April leasing results relative to last year point to positive results for the second quarter as well. Even though there is still some uncertainty for the outlook for the Canadian

economy as a whole, it seems probable that the lower value of the Canadian dollar will boost the production of exports produced in the GTA. This expectation may be leading firms to take on more space in order to boost production,”said Mr. Etherington.

Total commercial sales in April 2015, where pricing was disclosed, amounted to 56, compared to 53 in April 2014.

Industrial and office transactions were up on a year-over-year basis, whereas commercial/retail sales were down. Average selling prices per square foot were up slightly for industrial and office properties. The large increase in the average commercial/retail selling price was compositional in nature, with a change in the mix of above-average price transactions in the central core.

“The GTA is often at the top of various rankings, both as a place to live and a place to do business. The region’s close proximity to the United States and the recent dip in the value of the Canadian dollar should underpin further investment in commercial real estate moving forward,”continued Mr. Etherington.

SkyViews The Benefits of Smart Submetering

By Vince Brescia, Wyse Meter Solutions Inc.

Many property owners across Canada have discovered the benefits of submetering. With utility costs rising at 10% annually, many haveaccelerated their plans to convert “utilities included” buildings to individual billingutilities. The primary motivation has been the immediate improvement in net operating income, but there are other reasons. This article is intended to provide some background about submetering – what it is, how it is implemented, and a summary of the benefits.

Firstly, what is submetering? For those unfamiliar with it, submetering takes place when individual meters for each unit are installed behind the local distribution company’s (LDC’s) bulk meter. These meters are then used by a submetering company to individually bill and collect from tenants, whether commercial or residential, just like the LDC would if theyhad individually metered the building.

Greater Toronto Area

When you look around the world, bulk utility buildings, where utilities are included in rent, are unusual. Ontario in particular stands out within Canada because LDC’s had an aversion to individual billing of electricity: they didn’t want to deal with tenants, so thought it would be easier for them to deal with landlords. They didn’t want the headache of dealing with tenants. So Ontario has this unique situation where the majority of rental buildings in the province are not individually metered for electricity.

In the rest of the country (and the world), individual billing is the norm. However, there are still some bulkmetered buildings in all jurisdictions.

The process of moving from bulk billing to individual billing is quite simple. For the majority of installations, which are uncomplicated, a submetering company will usually install the meters often at no cost to the owner.

The submetering company will recover the cost of the installation through a monthly customer charge, which is typically the same or lower than the LDC would charge.

The residents will not see this customer charge: it will only be one element of a line called “Delivery Charge” as required by provincial rules – the same practice that the LDC’s must follow.

In Ontario, billing of individual tenants for electricity would only happen on turnover, because under the

Residential Tenancies Act, an existing tenant’s consent is required before you can convert them to individual billing, and they often will not grant consent. So individual billing commences as each suite turns over.

Also in Ontario, individual billing for electric heat is not allowed, but just like gas-heated buildings, you can meter the lights and plug-load in the units, which is significant. In other provinces, these restrictions do not apply, so an entire building can be converted within 1 year, and you can meter electric heat. Currently, legislation in Quebec and Manitoba, which both have one monopoly provincial electricity utility,electrical submetering of residential properties is currently not allowed.

Once individual billing commences, the change in resident behavior is quite shocking. As soon as residents are exposed to a bill for a utility, their consumption drops dramatically. Wyse recently analyzed a portfolio of over 1500 units and found that bill payers consume on average 48% less electricity than non-bill payers. There is a huge environmental benefit to submetering.

And the other benefits? Our current clients tell us that they do not change their rents once they submeter.

Therefore, the entire utility cost per unit goes straight to their bottom line in savings. In a typical suite, that’s $50 per month in cost savings. However, in the case of electricity, rates in some provinces are forecast to rise by 10% annually for years. So by 2020, $50 per month will become $90 per month. If cap rates are at 6%, that is $18,000 in additional value created per unit by 2020 through submetering.

And with utility costs rising the way they are, there is another beneficiary – most residents. Individual billing means that residents who economize on utility consumption no longer have to effectively subsidize big users in their building. By conserving, they save. And they get to see directly the benefit they are having on the environment.

SMALL BIZ CONFIDENCE SLIPS IN APRIL

A

pril showers were not the only thing putting a damper on Canadians’ mood. There was a slight but broadly based drop in small business confidence levels, as measured by CFIB’s Business Barometer Index, with seven of 10 provinces reporting a decline, shaving a point off the national index to 60.5.

“We’ve seen a cooling after last month’s rebound as the fallout from the shift in energy price fundamentals works its way through the economy,”said Ted Mallett, CFIB’s chief economist and vice-president.

the lowest confidence level among the provinces, and Saskatchewan falling for the sixth month in a row to 50.0. Central Canada reported mixed results: Manitoba posted big gains, jumping six points to return to the national average at 60.2, while Ontario saw a three-point drop to 62.5. Quebec’s index fell slightly to 57.3 on a record-high number of businesses (14 per cent) reporting they are in bad shape.

The news was slightly better in Atlantic Canada. Nova Scotia and New Brunswick both saw optimism fall again in April but still remain above the national average. Nova Scotia dropped to 63.3 while New Brunswick slipped to 60.7. Newfoundland and Labrador saw confidence recover slightly, rising to 59.0, and Prince Edward Island led Atlantic Canada again with the second-best optimism level in the nation, a healthy 69.2.

April saw a general cooling in the small business economy, with only 39 per cent of business owners reporting their firms to be in good shape – a fivepoint drop from the levels late last year. Improvement was reported on the nation’s skilled labour shortage, as the 30 per cent of owners identifying it as a problem is the lowest level in two years.

On a scale between 0 and 100, an index above 50 means owners expecting their business’ performance to be stronger in the next year outnumber those expecting weaker performance.

One normally sees an index level of between 65 and April, 2015 findings are based on 1,008 responses, collected from a stratified random sample of CFIB members, to a controlled-access web survey. Data reflect responses received 70 when the economy is growing at its potential.

British Columbia led the way for a second consecutive month, bucking the national trend to climb to 71.9. However, the rest of the west didn’t fare as well, with Alberta dropping to 47.0,

through April 20. Findings are considered accurate to +\- 3.1 per cent 19 times in 20.

CFIB is Canada’s largest association of small- and medium-sized businesses with 109,000 members across every sector and region.

UPTICK IN DEVELOPMENT SHOWS CONFIDENT STATE OF CANADIAN & U.S. INDUSTRIAL MARKETS Avison Young releases its Spring 2015 Canada, U.S. and U.K. Industrial Market Report

T

hese are some of the key trends noted in Avison Young’s Spring 2015 Canada, U.S. and U.K. Industrial Market Report, released recently.

Industrial markets on both sides of the border are experiencing stable-to-improving fundamentals, with a narrowing spread in vacancy rates between Canada and the U.S. year-over-year. Confidence in anticipated demand is demonstrated by active development pipelines. Volatile energy prices remain an unknown factor going forward, but their impact has yet to be felt – and is expected to be localized in particular markets and industry sectors.

The report covers the industrial markets in 43 Canadian, U.S. and U.K. metropolitan regions: Calgary, Edmonton, Guelph (Southwestern Ontario), Lethbridge, Mississauga, Montreal, Ottawa, Regina, Toronto, Vancouver, Winnipeg, Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Charleston, Charlotte, Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus, OH; Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Fort Lauderdale, Houston, Las Vegas, Long Island, Los Angeles, Miami, New Jersey, Oakland, Orange County, Orlando, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Raleigh-Durham, Reno, San Diego County, San Francisco, San Mateo, Tampa, Washington, DC; West Palm Beach and London, U.K. “It’s been one year since we launched our inaugural Canada-U.S. industrial market report, and we are pleased to report that, as Avison Young has grown, our coverage has expanded from 35 to 43 industrial markets, including additional cities in Canada and the U.S., plus London in the U.K.,” comments Mark E. Rose, Chair and CEO of Avison Young.

He continues: “Momentum continues to build, particularly in the U.S. markets, many of which have recorded declines in vacancy and a steady rise in rental rates, while demand

for quality assets has been broad based. This situation will only get better as the U.S. economy expands – and the spillover effects will benefit Canada. Both countries’ industrial markets have positioned themselves to take advantage of this anticipated next phase of the recovery by delivering state-of-the-art distribution and warehouse facilities, both design-build and speculative in nature.

“While we have been accustomed to low single-digit vacancy rates across Canada, even through the credit crisis, it’s great to finally see all but one of the U.S. markets covered by Avison Young in single-digit territory. London, Avison Young’s first location in the U.K., shares similar market fundamentals, with decreasing vacancy and rising rental rates.”

According to the report, of the 42 industrial markets tracked

by Avison Young across North America, vacancy declined in 32 markets, increased in eight, and remained unchanged in two, during the 12-month period to the end of the first quarter of 2015.

Year-over-year improvement occurred in almost all of Avison Young’s U.S. markets, with vacancy rates falling to varying degrees in 27 of 31 metropolitan regions surveyed. In Canada, the results were a mix of subtle shifts in vacancy in both directions, with the exception of two markets, which showed no change compared with the first quarter of 2014.

The Canadian industrial market collectively reported a vacancy rate of 4.4 per cent, down 20 basis points (bps) year-over-year in the first quarter of 2015, compared with 6.9 per cent (-90 bps) in the U.S. Both countries have seen a significant increase in development during the past 12 months, as more than 117 million square feet (msf) was under construction at the end of the first quarter of 2015.

CANADIAN MARKETS CLAIMED SIX OF THE LOWEST VACANCY RATES, FOUR OF THE HIGHEST AVERAGE ASKING NET RENTAL RATES AND THREE OF THE BUSIEST DEVELOPMENT MARKETS OF NORTH AMERICA’S TOP 10.

supply-chain networks, distribution centres are being built or expanded by the likes of Canadian Tire, Walmart, Home Depot, FedEx and Hyundai Mobis (in Canada), and Amazon.com, Cardinal Health, Midwest Warehouse & Distribution Systems, Southern Wine and Spirits, and ALDI (in the U.S.).

“Macroeconomic conditions, including volatile oil prices, a low Canadian dollar and less-than-stellar GDP numbers, are starting to take their toll on commercial real estate property market fundamentals in Canada,” says Bill Argeropoulos, Principal and Practice Leader, Research (Canada) for Avison Young.“The industrial market is faring much better than the office sector, where pressure is building as a result of a burgeoning new supply pipeline in major markets such as Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto, and the retail sector, which has been affected by the unexpected exit of Target from Canada and the closure of all Future Shop locations, and other retailers’ departures.”

He adds: “The industrial sector is displaying low vacancy rates, stable-to-rising rental rates, improving leasing velocity, a growing – but conservative – development pipeline and strong investor demand. An established and expanding distribution and logistics-driven industry and a sustained U.S. recovery will provide upside, and if a low Canadian dollar persists, it will fuel exports and boost a retooled manufacturing sector, particularly in Ontario and Quebec. The only caveat: manufacturers linked to the oil and gas sector will face headwinds.”

CANADA Notable First-Quarter 2015 Canadian Industrial Market Highlights: › Canadian markets claimed six of the lowest vacancy rates, four of the highest average asking net rental rates and three of the busiest development markets of North America’s top 10. › Single-digit vacancy rates persist, with seven of 11 Canadian markets surveyed posting vacancy below the national average of 4.4 per cent – down from 4.6 per cent one year ago. › Regina recorded the lowest vacancy rate (2 per cent) and the greatest swing (-160 bps), while Montreal (6.6 per cent) had the country’s highest vacancy.

› Collectively, Canada’s Western markets saw a modest increase in vacancy (+10 bps to 4.1 per cent) during the past year, compared with a decrease (-20 bps to 4.6 per cent) by Eastern markets – narrowing the East-West spread to 50 bps from 80 bps one year prior. › Development activity has doubled, with nearly 17.5 msf under construction (33 per cent preleased) – equating to only 1 per cent of the existing inventory. Toronto, Calgary and Edmonton account for 75 per cent of the total industrial space under construction. › The average national asking net rental rate increased to $7.90 per square foot (psf), with the West ($9.21 psf) outpacing the East ($6.33 psf).

U.S. The 9.2-billion-square-foot (bsf) U.S. industrial market covered in the Avison Young report demonstrated strength in all major markets year-over-year. In spite of an uptick in development, rents are rising and demand for class A product has been notable. As a result, several markets report a return to landlord-favourable conditions. With the exception of four markets, all others saw their vacancy rates improve year-over-year – some significantly. The overall U.S. market’s vacancy rate improved by 90 bps to 6.9 per cent.

“Industrial market fundamentals showed meaningful improvement across the U.S. in the last year. Lower energy prices are supporting consumer spending and non-energy warehouse and distribution growth, with key cities reporting build-to-suit and speculative development,” states Earl Webb, Avison Young’s President, U.S. Operations.

“At the same time, the lower energy costs and continued low interest rates are fuelling increased auto sales, so manufacturing and parts production should also accelerate this year.”

The overall average asking rent in the U.S. increased by a relatively modest $0.40 psf year-over-year, but this belies the fact that every market, with the exception of Miami, posted increased rents, and most have strengthening deal terms.

NOTABLE FIRST-QUARTER 2015 U.S. INDUSTRIAL MARKET HIGHLIGHTS: Nearly every Avison Young market in the U.S. reported some level of industrial development as of the first quarter of 2015. Construction volume is up nearly 16 per cent compared with the same period in 2014. Altogether, almost 100 msf is under construction, with 78 per cent of the total concentrated in seven markets.

West Coast industrial powerhouse Los Angeles reported a sub-4 per cent vacancy rate, its lowest level in more than a decade, and has 18 msf under construction – more than the entire Canadian market.

Atlanta has 17 msf under construction, half of which is being built speculatively.

The 1-bsf Chicago market is shifting to landlord-friendly conditions, with vacancy falling by 110 bps year-over-year, and has nearly 9 msf under construction. In the landconstrained urban core, redevelopment and infill projects are in play.

Driven by owner/occupier demand, vacancy levels in Las Vegas fell to 8.5 per cent from 11.1 per cent one year prior.

Detroit, where the industrial market is driven by the auto industry, continued its marked improvement as vacancy dropped to the single digits, falling by 170 bps year-overyear to 8.4 per cent.

The highest reported rents were again on the West Coast: San Francisco ($14.54 psf), San Diego County ($11.64 psf) and San Mateo ($10.44 psf). This finding is not surprising, since these three markets have strong demand drivers along with barriers to entry and vacancy rates in the low single digits.

Webb concludes: “Sales of industrial properties and portfolios are on the rise and, as we move further into 2015, the U.S. industrial market is experiencing a continuation of 2014 trends such as reshoring and modernization. That said, the full impact of the uncertain energy market is yet to be seen in select U.S. industrial markets such as Houston.”

Utilize Private Funds In Your Real Estate Today!

Since private money can fund quickly, why not use this funding source to negotiate a better deal for a quick closing, and offset the additional interest rates? I personally am self-employed and I am an avid real estate investor who uses this technique all the time. I pay the going rates and still have a great success from real estate!

Example of how using private money worked for one of our clients: Purchased a power of sale vacant property: $550,000 Used private funding to close Used private funding for a renovation loan Renovated and leased the vacant space Appraised the property after the work was completed: New value $1,100,000 Refinanced with the bank Removed private money: now they have a beautiful property that is cash flowing and their initial investment has been returned!

Please note, first mortgage rates for a private loan average from 7-10% annually, second mortgage rates average from 10-15% annually. We can obtain up to 90% of the value of the property on approved credit. On average this is on higher side, however has been funded. Lender fee and broker fee will also apply.

Private money will fund land, gas stations, vacant properties, distressed properties, construction, and development amongst many others. If you are looking to buy a property and are hitting a wall with your funding, contact info@profunds.ca or reach us toll free at 1-888-330-3866 and we can perform an assessment on your deal today!

The assets usually include the physical plant and equipment of the company, as well as its name, goodwill, receivables, etc.

This decision on which way to go will impact the tax positions of both sides and dictate the legal form which the transaction will take. A share sale is usually preferable from the vendor’s perspective, while asset purchases are normally more attractive to buyers. These opposing preferences are created by two primary issues; legal liability and tax consequences.

Legal liability is the main issue to be canvassed by prospective purchasers.

Purchasers must be aware that when acquiring the shares of a corporation, they are buying an entire company along with its full slate of assets and liabilities. This “warts and all” approach means that the corporation’s complete past history is also included in the bargain. If, for example, there is anything in the corporation’s past that could trigger a lawsuit – be it tax, product, environmental or employee liability – the purchaser may have bought this headache along with the business.

These risks can be minimized, however, by engaging a lawyer to perform what is known as “due diligence.” Due diligence involves procedures such as checking for registered claims or potential liabilities and confirming compliance with the relevant taxing authorities. An agreement which addresses any possible future issues and which specifies how they will be handled would then be prepared by the lawyer.

Be advised, however, that a contract

is only as good as its contracting parties. If one of the parties defaults on its responsibilities the only practical recourse available to the other is to sue; a generally costly and unwelcome undertaking.

The second issue to consider in deciding what form the commercial transaction will take is the tax consequence to each of the parties. When individuals sell shares of a Canadian controlled private corporation, any gain on the sale is deemed a capital gain for income tax purposes and, hence, is only fifty (50) per cent taxable.

Moreover, all individual taxpayers are allowed a tax-exempt lifetime maximum of $750,000 on this form of taxable gain. Thus, it is clear to see how vendors would prefer the share sale approach, particularly if they qualify for any or all of this $750,000 lifetime exemption.

Conversely, if the transaction is structured as an asset sale, there will be two levels of taxation that attach to the vendor: (i) firstly, when the corporation sells its assets; and, (ii) secondly, when the corporation distributes the proceeds to its shareholders.

Prior to the shareholder distribution, there is also typically some amount of ordinary income taxable in the hands of the corporation. Specifically, where equipment has been depreciated on the books of the vendor to an amount less than that is allocated to it on the sale, there will be a recapture of capital cost allowance on that depreciable property. There may also be profit realized on the sale of the inventory. As such, asset sales tend to result in more taxes and less net proceeds going to the vendor.

Buying shares means that the purchaser will be stuck with the depreciated cost in the company’s books of the depreciated asset irrespective of the value paid for the shares. If, however, the transaction proceeds by way of asset purchase, such deductions would be based on the purchase price allocated to the asset.

Generally purchasers prefer asset purchases and vendors prefer selling shares. The balance is reached through negotiation and careful drafting. So be careful and find the right lawyer to help you navigate through these dangerous waters.

It should be noted that this article only touches on but a few of the issues inherent in the asset versus share sale discussion. For a thorough understanding on the intricacies of either form of transaction, we recommend you seek the professional advice of a lawyer and accountant to ensure that the transaction you seek is structured to maximize your interests.
