Financial planning for you and your small business
I
f you are self-employed or a small business owner, chances are you focus much of your time on running your business, making it easy to overlook personal finances. Monitoring your personal goals is just as important as your business goals.
“Business owners are more likely to invest solely in their business, and sometimes this is necessary in order to keep the business going,” says Jason Round, head of Financial Planning Support at RBC Financial Planning.“While it is important to have a strong focus on your financial goals for your business, it is just as important to put the same care and attention into your personal finances.” Round offers personal investing strategies for business owners: • Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) – an RRSP can play a key role in diversifying your net worth and provide you with exposure to different business sectors to minimize your investment risk.
• Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) – is an important investment vehicle to save money for personal and business needs and minimize taxes whether for short or long-term goals. • Succession planning – a good succession plan will help you to think about the market value of your business, making it easier to exit the business when you are ready.

10 ways a CGA can help your small business 1. Sound Advice A certified general accountant (CGA) sees more than numbers. They see the big picture and can provide the sound advice your business needs. You are the expert in your business; and a CGA is the expert in accounting, finance, taxation and business management. He or she will be your adviser, counsel and confidante. Together, the two of you will anticipate, prevent and solve problems. 2. Succession planning The difference between self-employment and business ownership lies in knowing that your business can succeed without you. Succession planning ensures that your business is self-sufficient. It allows you to take time away while you stay involved or to sell your business (or bequeath it) when the time is right. A CGA will help you develop and execute a sound succession plan. 3. Business startup When you decide that it’s time to make your dream a reality, a CGA will help set up the most appropriate entity for your business, whether a sole proprietorship, partnership or corporation, with the skills and experience needed to guide you through this important stage of the startup process. 4. Software installation and training A CGA will take the time to understand the information technology needs of your business, assisting in the evaluation of functionality, cost and portability, and create the right software environment for your business through installation, configuration and training. 5. Systems implementation Proper systems can make the difference between chaos and order. A CGA will help you to identify and evaluate systems such as record keeping, document retention, asset protection and information controls. 6. Estate planning Whether you own a business or simply want to ensure the safe passage of your lifetime assets, estate planning is important. A CGA works with you and your lawyer to ensure that designated beneficiaries receive the maximum benefit from your estate.
7. Financial planning Whether it’s investment advice to help you realize your retirement dreams or cash flow projections for your growing business, a CGA will provide the sound financial planning you require to get you to your goal. 8. Controllership services If you think your business is too small to have a chief financial officer, think again. Many CGA firms offer parttime controllership services. They will provide hands-on advice about financial controls and procedures, assist in month-end processes and help ensure your business is in compliance with regulatory agencies. 9. Accounting services CGAs offer a wide range of accounting services, from compiling your financial results on an interim or yearend basis, to payroll administration, tax compliance, cash management, projections and bill payment, plus analysis, assessments, calculations and reviews. 10. Tax planning and preparation Tax planning and preparation is an integral part of the financial planning process. A CGA will help you minimize the taxes you pay – now and in the future – whether you’re an employee or self-employed, an investor or small business owner, a farmer, student or landlord. NC More information or access to other small business resources is available online at cga-ontario.org or toll-free at 1.800.668.1454.

Protect your name and brand equity
A
s a business owner, you have taken steps to protect your business from security threats like theft. Have you also taken steps to protect your business name? Your business name, the name of your products or services, and even your domain name are all tied to your brand equity. That value can be compromised if you underestimate the risk of not protecting it. The Canada Business Network offers helpful information on protecting your brand.
Your brand value is a direct result of how memorable, easily recognizable and superior in quality and reliability your products or services are to others in the marketplace. Brand equity is important when you want to expand your product line. Customers will remember your name and associate new items with existing, successful ones. There is a flip side to brand equity, however. If another business has a similar name, it can create confusion or incorrect assumptions among your customers. What if the other business has a poor track record? You don’t want to
be tarred with that same brush and have it negatively affect your bottom line. In some cases, another business might try to take advantage of the goodwill or value associated with your brand name, and uses it for their own gain. Consider a trade-mark to protect your brand. Don’t forget about your online presence. Make sure that any domain names and hosting accounts you have are secure by using passwords and other safeguards. Even if you don’t have a website for your business, you may want to register and keep your own domain name (“yourbusinessname.ca”) or names that are similar, so that no one else can use them. Minimize the risks your business faces, and protect both your name and reputation by staying on top of things. More information on protecting your business is available at canadabusiness.gc.ca or by calling 1.888.576.4444 (TTY 1.800.457.8466).

A COMMERCIAL REALTOR®
a valuable asset Hamilton
In today’s competitive commercial real estate market, a commercial real estate expert is the partner you need to make sure you get the best deal possible. With expertise and knowledge of local markets, a REALTOR® can help you receive maximum value with minimum headaches for you.
BUILD-TO-SUIT REALTORS® can bring together developers, landlords and tenants for the purpose of building premises that are specific to the needs of the occupant, with the terms and conditions to either buy or lease the premises negotiated in advance of construction.
Commercial REALTORS® have membership in a local Board or Association and have agreed to act under and adhere to a strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Business Practice voluntarily established by REALTORS®. They know the intricacies of buying, selling or leasing property, from space planning, zoning information, dealing with municipal governments, environmental concerns, construction, tax assessments, appraisals, financing and market values, to detailed paperwork and closing procedures.
CONSULTING A REALTOR® can provide a range of consulting services dealing with the cost of lead generation, acquisition costs, technology, or the new realities of marketing. It’s preGoogle and post-Google, and how marketing properties and business has changed because of the internet.
Here are just a few ways a commercial REALTOR® can help you:
DEVELOPMENT Working with developers, a REALTOR® can find the best location and determine the best market conditions for construction of an office, retail, industrial or multi-family building to begin. This can be done with a pre-determined client, or on a speculative basis.
APPRAISALS The primary purpose of a commercial appraisal is to determine the value of a specified interest in commercial real estate. The value most clients ask for is the market value, although other types of value can be reported. A REALTOR® has the expertise to provide accurate appraisals for your business.
INVESTMENT PURCHASE AND SALE A commercial REALTOR® offers expertise, market knowledge and a detailed marketing program when representing buyers and sellers. REALTORS® can identify a location, negotiate, and do the calculations to determine if there is a positive return on investment.
BUSINESS SALES AND ACQUISITIONS A REALTOR® can provide detailed due diligence and market knowledge for the search, negotiation, disposition or acquisition of existing and new business operations.
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT Commercial REALTORS® have a great knowledge of the opportunities and needs of landlords and tenants, making it easier to bring them together in a mutually agreeable 11293084_4914

leasehold interest in premises. If the REALTOR® also provides management services, he or she will ensure you maximize the value of your assets and help develop the goals for the property. REPRESENTING LANDLORDS/OWNERS A REALTOR® uses in depth knowledge of the local markets to negotiate a contract for the use of office, retail or industrial space at a cost-effective price for both landlord and tenant. REPRESENTING TENANTS A commercial REALTOR® knows the leasing opportunities available in the marketplace. He or she will work with you to determine the exact requirements for your office or company, then negotiate on your behalf for the most favorable leasing terms possible. Let a commercial REALTOR® become your business partner. A long-term relationship with a professional who specializes in your business needs can be one of your biggest assets.
Established in 1921, the REALTORS® Association of Hamilton-Burlington (RAHB) represents more than 2,700 real estate brokers and sales representatives from Hamilton, Burlington and outlying areas. Members of the association may use the REALTOR® trademark, which identifies them as real estate professionals who subscribe to a strict code of ethics.

INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE
10 Tips for Reducing Risk and Making Money Dino Nicosia, Broker of Record, Investpro Realty Ltd., Brokerage
Hamilton
Investing in real estate and being a landlord should be treated like any other business venture. The goal is to end up with a profit at the end of the day after collecting the rent and paying the expenses. Slowly and steadily your mortgage will be paid down and you’ll end up with a tidy nest egg. Remember though, like any venture it takes effort, time and know-how. It is not a get rich quick scheme. Plan to hold the investment for the long term, subject to market and personal variables that may necessitate a quicker sale. It can and should be financially rewarding if you do your homework, take the proper precautions, employ experts in the areas of your weaknesses, and minimize your risks. You will find the following tips will be helpful. 1. RESEARCH: Take the necessary time to inform yourself about property values in the locations you’re considering purchasing. Consider obtaining a market analysis from a real estate agent or appraiser for a property in which you are interested. Consider if the location is in decline or moving upwards? A good indication is if large chains like Wal-Mart, Tim Hortons, Home Depot or Star Bucks are moving into the neighbourhood. Companies like these do a lot of market research on demographics and income before deciding where to locate. If a large chain like one of these finds a neighbourhood appealing, it’s a good indication the neighbourhood in moving upwards. 2. SURROUND YOURSELF WITH EXPERIENCE: This is very important! Retain a real estate agent who has firsthand experience; who is also a local investor; and who has owned and managed investment properties. Many agents purport to be experts in investment properties, but have never owned or managed one. Retaining a real estate agent with firsthand experience is invaluable. Additionally, utilize the services of other experienced professionals, such as property
managers, insurance advisers, mortgage brokers, home inspectors, accountants and lawyers. If your real estate agent doesn’t possess the required expertise to know what should be contained in an agreement of purchase and sale, then retain a real estate lawyer who is an expert in that area to prepare the offer. A knowledgeable professional team working with you will make the process smoother and save you time and likely money in the long run. 3. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT: A critical member of your professional team is an experienced and reliable property manager. If you don’t want to deal with or are not experienced in dealing with tenant concerns, evictions, and other property issues 24/7, you will want a property manager. Depending mainly on the number of units being managed, (although there are many other factors), the management fee will range from between 4 and 10 percent of the monthly or yearly rental income. Good property management will likely pay for itself in the long run. When looking for a property management company, be sure you ask for references and follow up those references. Another good idea before retaining any person is to simply do a Google search on them and see what pops up. 4. BE AWARE OF ILLEGAL UNITS: Some units in some apartment buildings, (usually a basement apartment), duplexes and triplexes, and students housing units, are illegal in that they contravene the zoning by-law. Although these units provide additional income, be aware that they may not be fire code compliant, you may be forced to convert them back to the legal use of lesser units, you may not be able to have the zoning by-law changed to permit the extra units, and your lender will probably not include the income from those units in determining the principal amount you will qualify for under your mortgage. 8171452_4914

5. BUY WITH THE GOAL TO HOLD LONG TERM: If you’re looking for a quick flip and a quick profit, you might as well put your money on the roulette wheel. If you’re holding for the long term, you should be able to ride out the ups and downs of the economy and the rental market. Historically, real estate has always increased over the long term. The probability of you making money is greater in the long term then the chance of you making short term gains. 6. PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT: If you’re investing with other persons, it’s highly recommended that you have an agreement in place, (i.e. partnership agreement, joint venture agreement, shareholders’ agreement) to address various matters. Those matters could include; 1. Failure to put in cash calls for losses from some partners 2. Selling your interest of the property, 3. Management issues, 4. Death or incapacity of a partner, 5. Decision making, With an agreement in place, you have a mechanism already in place to deal with many issues rather than having to deal with them later when the parties may be antagonistically opposed. It’s better to pay for the agreement now then pay much more later. 7. BE CAUTIOUS: While there are some investments that require minimal dollar investment, most real estate transactions require a significant down payment and financing that is personally guaranteed. Don’t fall prey to the “no money down” schemes. Those schemes may work south of the border, but they are not amenable in any significant way to the Canadian system. The people making the most money on the “no money down schemes” are the ones putting on the seminars. Chances are you will be paying a premium for the property because there is no money down; the property is a money drain and that’s why the seller is willing to sell with no money down so the losses can be passed onto you. Get a second opinion from a professional. Never
Hamilton
e 12
be hurried by a real estate agent or a seller to act quickly to get in on the deal as there are many other, probably better, deals outs there. 8. PROPERTY INSPECTION: A thorough property inspection by a qualified inspector is a necessity before you make the final decision. Your satisfaction with the results should be a strict condition of any offer. Make sure you view every unit in the building, because you don’t want any surprises after you take possession. 9. EDUCATE YOURSELF: Familiarize yourself with investment strategies, the terms, formulas, the tax laws, the laws and regulations that govern investment properties such as fire, health and safety, landlord and tenant laws. Educate yourself as much as you can and then take your time and wade in. You may find that you have to view many properties and submit many offers before you find the investment property that is the right fit for you. 10. DON’T BE IN A HURRY TO SELL: A common mistake made by inexperienced real estate investors is that they sell their investment too early. A quick tidy profit, if available, should be weighed against the larger future profit to come. Remember, history has proven that property normally doubles every 10 years or so, plus you have the luxury of paying down the mortgage over the long term.

Commercial Real Estate & Business Opportunities
In the high-paced, high-stakes arena of real estate sales, it can be difficult to build a team of individuals that all work towards a common goal. Many times team members from within the same brokerage can become overly competitive and hostile. Skyview Realty's team approach model changed that. By recruiting team members who aligned themselves with Skyview Realty's principles, who each contributed their own talents and knowledge to the team, and with one vision to unite them all, Danny Iannuzziello's team began to grow. Skyview Realty's team today is a great example of that team approach model that Danny set in motion in the early stages of Skyview's growth. There are three main reasons why Skyview Realty's team approach sets them apart in the multi-unit residential sales industry:
Greater Toronto Area
Strength in Numbers With a diverse team of sales representatives, administrative and support staff, and management, Skyview Realty is able to provide service to more individuals throughout Ontario. Danny remembers a time when he felt as though he could not keep up with the demand. “Today is different”, he adds, “I can fully rely on my team to carry the ball even when I'm not involved in the smaller day-to-day details of a transaction.” Knowledge is Powerful With Skyview Realty's model, each team member specializes in one aspect of the business or another. When a sales representative comes across a problem on the sale of a property, they can tap into another team member who may have experience in finding the right solution. Skyview Realty has experts in the areas of marketing, research, evaluations, customer service, property management, showing properties, and preparing offers. In addition to being specialists in the area of selling
Volume 14 Issue 12
multi-unit residential properties, Skyview has gained additional knowledge of the industry through the ownership and management of a number of investment properties throughout the Golden Horseshoe region. This gives Skyview Realty a distinct advantage when talking with buyers and sellers, as they are familiar with what it takes to run a successful portfolio. Efficiency for Clients On a daily basis, Skyview Realty is contacted by clients who are looking for advice on running their apartment investment businesses; from recommending a supplier or tradesman to advice on dealing with problem tenants. With Skyview's team approach, the client has a whole team of support to assist. “When I first started with Skyview Realty, I was amazed at how the Skyview Team was completely dedicated to our clientele. Every person on my team brings a different skill set or knowledge base that contributes to the whole. We truly are a family at Skyview, and we all work with a common vision.”, says Cliff Ford. When it comes to selling properties, the team approach also has an advantage. From time to time, and for various reasons, an owner may be looking for a quick sale of their property. Each sales representative at Skyview Realty is connected to their own personal network of buyers and sellers. Having a team that works together allows one agent, who may have an eager seller, to work alongside another team member who may have the right buyer for that property. The Bottom Line Ultimately, what is the benefit to you in working with Skyview Realty's team approach model? You will get an entire team of individuals unified to work on your behalf, rather than just one representative. You have an accessible knowledgebase at your disposal, and you know you will receive efficient and dedicated service to get the results you look for. 8647857_4914

The Smith Manoeuvre: DEDUCTING MORTGAGE INTEREST
A
A
( “
Y
O
While this may not by itself create financial freedom, imagine receiving these savings year after year – with minimal effort required. Imagine the impact of a higher interest rate or larger mortgage.
Your tax savings will vary based on where you live in Canada, your income level and the amount of interest you pay. As a quick example, though, with a mortgage of $200,000 at 4.5 per cent, your tax savings could be approximately $3,000 per year.
A variety of versions of the plan exist, and vary in aggressiveness and implementation to suit your needs and comfort.
ne of the largest expenses we have tends to be the mortgage on our home. Following traditional rules, we are limited to deducting, at best, a small percentage of the interest where we use a home office for business purposes. However, using non-traditional planning, we are able to deduct potentially 100 per cent of the interest costs.
thetaxman
A popular nickname for describing some of the possible techniques is the “Smith Manouevre,” coined by Frasor Smith. A variety of versions of the plan exist, and vary in aggressiveness and implementation to suit your needs and comfort. With a Supreme Court decision related in part to questions surrounding the appropriateness of interest deduction plans, tax advisors have largely been given the green light to help clients restructure their affairs in an optimal fashion. In its simplest form, these interest deductibility techniques allow homeowners the ability to convert the non-deductible portion of the interest on their mortgage to fully deductible over a period of time. The period is typically several years, however, your financial situation and aggressiveness may dramatically decrease this time. A variety of mortgage products provide the ability to divide your mortgage into at least two segments, which allows you to track the interest expense on these segments separately. Your total mortgage will typically be set at 75 to 80 per cent of the value of your home. If you are permitted a total mortgage of $200,000 on your home, you may start with the “bad” portion (non-deductible) of the mortgage at this $200,000 and the “good” portion (deductible) of the mortgage at zero. As you make payments on the mortgage, your principal on the bad mortgage will decrease, leaving you additional room to borrow on the good debt. In other words, your total mortgage may still be $200,000, however, it is divided between good and bad debt. So, what do you do with this good debt? You invest. Traditionally, this was thought of as an excellent vehicle to acquire mutual funds and similar investments. However, this may be a great opportunity for you to go beyond that and invest in your business. You may be able to shorten the conversion time of your bad debt where, for example, you have non-registered financial assets that can be sold and the proceeds used to pay down some bad debt. Tax refunds, inheritances, unexpected sources of funds, extra mortgage payments are further ways of speeding up the conversion. While restructuring must be done properly, your efforts will be rewarded. Talk to your tax, mortgage and investment advisors to determine whether such a plan can work for you and that you are comfortable with the full implications. Also, work closely with your mortgage advisor as you pay close attention to the features of the mortgage product that you use to ensure you have the required flexibility to accomplish your goals. There are significant differences between the products beyond the interest rates which command your attention. This article is brief in nature and omits many important details that may dramatically change how financial plans may affect your particular situation. This should not be considered tax, investment, business or similar advice. Before implementing
any plans, always discuss in full with your tax advisor and other relevant advisors.

wning a small business can be one of the most exciting and rewarding experiences of your professional career. But becoming your own boss is not for the faint of heart. Whether you are purchasing an existing business or starting one from scratch, the first few years are the most crucial, requiring solid planning, hard work and unwavering passion for what you do.
TD Canada Trust offers tips to entrepreneurs who are considering starting their own small business: • Solid planning is non-negotiable – As the saying goes, ‘fail to plan, and you are planning to fail’. A strong business plan should clearly and concisely outline your long and short term goals, and how you’re going to get there. Make sure your plan includes a strategy for the marketing, operations and financing and that it’s updated at least annually. Your business plan is not only a good way to keep you focused on your goal, but it will also play a huge

How to build your own small business role when securing capital from potential investors. • Check the pulse on cash flow – Cash flow is the lifeblood of all growing businesses, so keeping a close eye on your company’s financials is critical. A company with strong profits on the income statement, but which is tardy in collecting its receivables or does not manage its cash flow tightly, may go bankrupt if it does not have the cash to service its obligations. • Ask for expert advice – Entrepreneurs sometimes have trouble asking for help, but the most successful small business owners surround themselves with experts to navigate through the challenges. The small business advisors at your bank can help you with financial solutions to ensure you have the right cash flow management system in place to take your business to the next level.

PUTTING THE PIECES TOGETHER MUSKOKA-INVESTMENT READY
O
Central Ontario
ctober, 1995 will forever be remembered as a time when my wife and I finally found the courage to exercise our desire and completely change a very hectic lifestyle for the chance to live in Muskoka. It was not a result of extensive, well thought out economic “what if” scenarios. Instead, over time, the emotional draw became stronger and stronger. The final decision was made when we heard a friend discuss why his family had moved to rural Montana from San Fransisco. The traditional lifestyle change holdback was based on finding suitable employment first. He argued that instead we should seek the lifestyle we wish and bring our entrepreneurial spirit and work ethic to compliment that desire. My close associates, knowing my Type “A” personality, were concerned and advised that I would be back to the big city within 6 months. However, we are now going into our 20th year of knowing the right decision was made. Most are aware of the historical appeal of the cultural, natural and other features/attributes of the Muskoka mystique. Thousands upon
thousands from Ontario, the US, Europe, Orient etc. are drawn yearly to the beauty and relaxation of our lakes, trees, rocks, intimate social culture, etc. People say this interaction brings renewal and comfort to the spirit. However, traditionally, these same folks reluctantly leave and further pursue outside businesses interests, careers etc., with its increasing city gridlock and exhaustive pace. Muskoka is now excited to let all know that it has an emerging credible and authentic story to tell regarding a changing economic climate that is most positive for all who may seek a cultural restart. We are “Investment Ready.” Muskoka’s emerging “Creative Economy” is about a paradigm shift from the historical industrial age to an age where creativity, knowledge, innovation and access to information will drive economic development in exporting to a widening local, regional and global marketplace Research has proven that to become a creative economy strategies are needed that attract highly-skilled entrepreneurs and workers who value a superior quality of life, and are encouraged through enhanced innovation. Creative workers can choose where to live. They want to live in distinctive places with unique characters and identities, incorporating history, culture, picturesque landscapes and natural amenities. Changes are underway in Muskoka to become that year-round diversified economy, attracting new investment, expanding the tax base, with greater employment opportunity and career enhancement. Technology is allowing the exploration and pursuit of opportunities for growth in current strategic industry clusters, building on existing strengths, e.g. natural resources – water/trees/rock; environmental conservation; “green” building construction; arts and culture; airport/aviation/aerospace, etc. etc. In addition, technology has allowed the integration into information super-highway capacity, allowing the same opportunities as big cities have traditionally had. Times are changing fast. More and more entrepreneurial thinkers are realizing that the technology revolution has brought with it an actual sense of freedom to not be “Geographically Bound” any longer.

There are many deal closings & financing techniques available in today’s marketplace, besides the traditional “all cash at closing” scenario. Through solid back-up information, coupled with confidential people motivations, most any real estate and/or business transaction can be finalized to the financial security and emotional benefit of all parties involved. We work in a fluid ever changing marketplace and utilize years of creative real estates training into actual practice.
We enjoy access to a selection of sound historic long standing profitable Muskoka business that require new younger entrepreneurial ownership to achieve the next opportunity level. Typically, these operations, which export nationally and internationally, have had solid ownership that now is getting older and lacking the technological skill set to take their operations to the next level. Pricing of 3.5-4 times existing EBITDA offers the younger entrepreneur large upside growth opportunities. Included are Forestry, Fishing, Food & Related Products, Education & Training, Aviation, Wholesale Trade & Distribution etc.

MUSKOKA RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
We see a growing shift towards housing desirability more in line with Muskoka's changing demographics. These desired "Gap" alternatives are driving more demand, not just for high end complexes but all across the multi-family rental, condominium, land lease etc. spectrum. These changing trends, coupled Muskoka's recently introduced zoning alternatives, low development fees, etc. etc. offer expanded opportunities for existing and future residences.

Passing the torch: What’s in your business succession plan?
N
o matter whether you are thinking of selling your business, or planning your retirement, or planning for the future, you need a sound business succession plan. Succession planning involves establishing your exit strategy and deciding how to hand your business over to someone else. Having a plan can smooth the transition, protect your work’s legacy, build value for your business, and help ensure financial security for your family and other interested individuals. When planning your exit strategy, it’s best to start early. According to the 2011 TD Waterhouse Business Succession Poll, 76 per cent of small business owners don’t have such plan. Taking the time to plan can save you countless hours down the road, so to get you started, here are few things to consider when drafting your plan: • Determine your goals and objectives for the business. • Identify and train your successor. • Decide if you would like to transfer or sell your business to a successor. • Think about how your decisions will impact family members, partners and/or employees. • Prepare a financial plan and determine the tax implications for the transition of your business. • Determine the fair market value of your business.
• Create an exit strategy by establishing a timeline for easing your way out of the business. • Review the plan regularly to keep it up to date. When developing your plan, it’s a good idea to consult advisors such as accountants, bankers and lawyers. Making sure that your successors understand their roles in the business, now and for the future, is also essential. There are several ways to find information that can help you plan for a smooth transition. Start by reading the succession plan guide online at canadabusiness. ca/ontario. Canada Business Ontario is a free service from the governments of Canada and Ontario that provides information on a variety of business topics.

Selling a real estate investment property Q.
I purchased a rental investment property nine years ago. Every year I have filed the rental income on my tax return. This year I sold the property. In addition to my rental income, what tax implications will I have to report? Jared, Toronto
A.
Hopefully, you made a profit! The real estate market has been healthy for the past several years and continues to be strong. Selling a real estate investment property will generate either a capital gain/ loss and/or a recapture of income/terminal loss.
You will have a capital gain when the proceeds of the sale exceed the original cost of the property. A capital gain must be included in your personal tax return (if you own it personally) and is taxed on 50 per cent of the gains at your personal tax rate. A capital loss occurs when the cost is greater than your proceeds. The capital losses should be included on your personal return and applied against capital gains in that year. Any excess losses can be carried back three years, or carried forward indefinitely to reduce capital gains. In calculating the capital gain/loss, determining the adjusted cost of the property is an essential factor. The adjusted
cost must include not just the purchase price but also other costs incurred that had to be capitalized. As well, the proceeds of disposition are all the cost, including the selling price and adjustments pertaining to the sale of the investment. In addition to the capital gains/losses, you may have a recapture of income. This occurs when you are taking Capital Cost allowance (depreciation) on the building, in any of the years that it was owned by you. The balance in this account is called the “undepreciated portion.� A recapture of income occurs when the lesser of the proceeds and the cost of the property is higher than the Undepreciated Capital Cost (UCC). The recapture of income is taxed in its entirety at your personal tax rate. Alternatively, a terminal loss occurs when the lesser of the proceeds and the cost of the property is less than the UCC. This terminal loss can be applied in the current year to reduce other income (such as salaries or business income). Any unused amounts can be carried back three years or carried forward. Good record keeping is essential to calculate the correct gains and/or losses. The opinions and views expressed herein are those of the author and not those of Commercial Investor. Commercial Investor does not necessarily endorse or encourage any specific tax strategies. Please consult a tax professional for advice specific to your particular situation.

Tips when choosing a group insurance plan for your small business
A
well-designed group benefits plan can offer significant advantages for your employees and your business. It can help you attract and retain top talent; promote a healthy work environment; and differentiate your business from your competitors.
Niagara Peninsula
“A group insurance plan can be a flexible and affordable way to enhance your total compensation package,” explains John Carinci, head, group and business markets, RBC Insurance. “Many Canadian employees identify their benefits plan as a key reason for remaining with their current employer. In fact given the choice, 59 per cent of employees would prefer group benefits over a 10 per cent salary increase.”Before choosing a group insurance plan, consider the following three tips: • Define your objectives – To identify whether you need a basic plan or a comprehensive plan, first identify your primary purpose for implementing a benefits package.
The plan you choose may be different depending on whether your goal is to attract new talent, retain existing employees, or simply offer basic coverage. • Provide coverage your employees will use – Talk to your employees about their needs prior to selecting your group plan. By doing the research up front, you’ll avoid paying for features your employees won’t use while also aligning the plan to your stated objectives. • Choose a plan that is a good fit for you and your employees – A good benefits package provides a benchmark level of coverage that meets the needs of your employees, at a cost that you are comfortable with. Prepare a list of questions for your advisor to ensure you are delivering the best solution possible. For more information, visit rbcinsurance.com/groupbenefits NC

Retail real estate sector contributes $6.9 billion to Canadian economy, supports 97,700 jobs
C
apital investment in the retail real estate sector totaled $6.9 billion in 2013, according to a report released by the Real Property Association of Canada (REALpac) titled “The Contribution of the Retail Real Estate Sector to the Canadian Economy.” Some $4.7 billion was spent on new buildings, with the rest ($2.2 billion) invested in capital improvements, renovations and the upgrading of existing buildings. “As a real estate asset class, there is no better investment than really great retail and you will continue to see smart owners enhance and reinvest in these assets,” says Blake Hutcheson, president and CEO, Oxford Properties Group, and member of REALpac. “This is what our tenants and customers want and the payback is convincing for both owners and the economy at large.” The ongoing operations of retail buildings also generated about $1 billion in building management fees and approximately $1 billion in commercial brokerage fees from sales and leasing of retail real estate sector properties. Taken together, the construction and investment in retail buildings and the ongoing operation of these buildings make a substantial contribution to the Canadian economy, producing $18.3 billion in annual economic activity. These activities add to the economy in various ways by: > Supporting 97,700 jobs each year, many of which are high-paying professional jobs; > Generating $6 billion in income, related to personal income and other sources of income; > Generating $3.9 billion in corporate profits earned by many small and medium companies, and some of the largest companies in Canada, such as pension funds and insurance companies; > Contributing $2.2 billion in personal and corporate income tax revenues for the federal and provincial governments.

CYBER THREATS ON THE RISE,
but many Canadian businesses don’t plans to boost security budgets
W
hile 92 per cent of Canadian organizations say they’re facing rising IT threats, 42 per cent say their information security budgets will remain the same or decrease in 2015, according to EY’s annual Global Information Security survey.
The survey shows that 54 per cent of Canadian respondents say it’s “highly unlikely” or “unlikely” that their organization could detect a sophisticated cyber attack. Budget constraints aren’t the only hurdle; a lack of skilled resources is the main challenge for 57 per cent of survey respondents. “Clearly, this situation is not sustainable in the medium to long term,” says Gaétan Houle, national IT security practice leader at EY.“Organizations need to find a way to increase their resilience to cyber attacks with the same amount of financial and personnel resources. Support from Managed Security Services Providers (MSSP) could be an option to consider for several small to medium companies.” MSSPs offer services ranging from basic hosting to a full
outsourced security operations centre. According to EY, focus areas of an MSSP are: scoping what needs to be managed; establishing realistic service level agreements; negotiating a flexible contract with the MSSP that will adapt to changing threats; integrating your incident response process with the MSSP’s; and generating security metrics to measure effectiveness. “To get ahead of cybercrime, organizations need to embrace cybersecurity as a core competitive capability,” says Houle. “This requires keeping the organization in a constant state of readiness, adding capabilities before they’re needed and preparing for threats before they arise.” Houle concludes: “The question now is no longer: can you afford an MSSP? Companies should be considering: can you afford all the security needed to protect against new cyber threats?” For further information and to download the 2014 report, visit ey.com/GISS

MUSKOKA BUSINESS
There are many deal closings & financing techniques available in today’s marketplace, besides the traditional “all cash at closing” scenario. Through solid back-up information, coupled with confidential people motivations, most any real estate and/or business transaction can be finalized to the financial security and emotional benefit of all parties involved. We work in a fluid ever changing marketplace and utilize years of creative real estates training into actual practice.
We enjoy access to a selection of sound historic long standing profitable Muskoka business that require new younger entrepreneurial ownership to achieve the next opportunity level. Typically, these operations, which export nationally and internationally, have had solid ownership that now is getting older and lacking the technological skill set to take their operations to the next level. Pricing of 3.5-4 times existing EBITDA offers the younger entrepreneur large upside growth opportunities. Included are Forestry, Fishing, Food & Related Products, Education & Training, Aviation, Wholesale Trade & Distribution etc.
The world now uses the Internet as
MUSKOKA IS CONNECTED the premier communications and

MUSKOKA RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
We see a growing shift towards housing desirability more in line with Muskoka's changing demographics. These desired "Gap" alternatives are driving more demand, not just for high end complexes but all across the multi-family rental, condominium, land lease etc. spectrum. These changing trends, coupled Muskoka's recently introduced zoning alternatives, low development fees, etc. etc. offer expanded opportunities for existing and future residences.
