BUSINESS CONFIDENCE CONTINUES SLIDE IN AUGUST

anada’s business confidence continued to struggle in August. CFIB’s Business Barometer Index fell for the third consecutive month to 56.7, its lowest point since April 2009. The index has dropped almost eight points in 2015.

“Weakening sentiment in the western provinces continues to weigh confidence down,” said Ted Mallett, CFIB’s chief economist and vice president.“In contrast, confidence in the Maritimes continues to out-perform the national average, bolstered by a favourable dollar that boosts trade conditions with the US.” 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 70 when the economy is growing at its potential. Optimism took a sharp turn in British Columbia, losing over three points to 64.1. Alberta continued its slide, dropping to 40.4. Saskatchewan bucked the trend and saw a confidence

increase for the fourth consecutive month, jumping over seven points to 61.9 – its highest level since November, 2014. Manitoba slid four points to 53.8. Ontario made a small climb to 61.3, while Quebec slipped to 57.3. Newfoundland and Labrador’s business confidence took a turn for the worse this month, falling six points to 57.0. Nova Scotia jumped to 65.7, second highest in the country, while New Brunswick fell to 61.1. Prince Edward Island saw a small drop to 67.3 but remains the most optimistic province in the country. The resource sector continues to show the weakest levels of optimism in the country. Below-par sentiment in construction, retail and transportation is offsetting reasonably good outlooks in the other services sectors. Only one in five businesses plan to hire additional staff in the coming months, while 12 per cent plan to cut back. August, 2015 findings are based on 989 responses, collected from a stratified random sample of CFIB members, to a controlled-access web survey. Data reflect responses received through August 17. 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.

CAUTION! Asphalt surfaces quite often slip way down on the ownerâ€™s priority list for maintenance repair and replacement. This should not be the case as this is the one of the first areas a client or prospective buyer looks at when visiting the site. Also, serious trip hazards are often overlooked which may result in costly law suits.

MAINTENANCE We recommend a simple regular maintenance plan to reduce wear and tear, trip hazards and make the property more appealing. 1. Seal cracks annually, seal the asphalt and line paint every 2 - 3 years, extends life several years. 2. Investing in reinforced concrete protection rings around all manholes and catch basins results in reduced maintenance and replacement of asphalt. 3. Raise manholes and catch basins so that they are flush with the asphalt and concrete rings.

5. Instead of replacing asphalt consider capping the existing asphalt if it is in reasonable condition.

LAURIER NAMES SCHOOL OF BUSINESS & ECONOMICS AFTER VISIONARY TECHNOLOGY ENTREPRENEUR MIKE LAZARIDIS

ilfrid Laurier University is proud to announce the naming of its renowned School of Business & Economics in honour of visionary technology entrepreneur and philanthropist Mike Lazaridis.

The newly branded Lazaridis School of Business & Economics marks the start of an exciting new era for Laurier as the university prepares to celebrate the 50th anniversary of its business and economics school and open a $103-million state-ofthe-art facility in 2016. Laurier is poised to become a global centre for research and teaching related to the leadership of technology companies, thanks to a $20-million donation by Lazaridis and a contribution of $15 million from the Ontario government, both announced earlier this year. The combined $35 million will support the creation of the Lazaridis Institute for the Management of Technology Enterprises, which will be part of the Lazaridis School of Business & Economics. Mike Lazaridis is internationally known for creating the groundbreaking BlackBerry smartphone, building BlackBerry into an $18-billion global business, and reshaping the global mobile communications industry. He is currently a founding partner in Quantum Valley Investments, a Waterloo-based fund that focuses on the commercialization of breakthrough technologies in quantum information science and which seeks to support Waterloo Region’s growing reputation as the “Quantum Valley.” “I can’t imagine a better name for a school of business and economics than the one that we are adding today,” said Micheál Kelly, dean of the Lazaridis School of Business & Economics.“It’s a name that is recognized nationally and internationally; it’s a name that is associated with vision, innovation and excellence.”

COM_3715.indd 14

The Lazaridis School of Business & Economics will be housed in a $103-million landmark building that is nearing completion on University Avenue in Waterloo. Known to date as the Global Innovation Exchange, this remarkable facility will be renamed Lazaridis Hall in honour of the entrepreneur’s generous contributions to Laurier, the global technology industry and the community of Waterloo Region. “Mike Lazaridis is a true visionary who understands the transformative power of technology and of philanthropy,” said Max Blouw, president and vicechancellor of Wilfrid Laurier University.“His entrepreneurial spirit and passionate commitment to improve the competitiveness of Canada’s technology industry epitomizes the Laurier ethos of inspiring lives of leadership and purpose. We are grateful for his support and for the opportunity to partner with him to enhance management education in this country.” Lazaridis said he is pleased to work with Laurier and the province in developing a globally competitive technology industry that strengthens the regional, provincial and national economies. “I chose to invest in Laurier because I thought that they were uniquely positioned to transform the way that technology business managers are trained and developed,” said Lazaridis.“I believe the Lazaridis Institute for the Management of Technology Enterprises will help Laurier produce exceptional tech-savvy business managers and leaders that Canadian technology companies need to grow and succeed globally. I want to thank the Province of Ontario for their continuing vision and support for technology entrepreneurship in this province.” The Lazaridis School of Business & Economics is an innovative leader in immersive learning and leading-edge research. From their very first day on campus, students work in teams to tackle real-world challenges. Through Canada’s largest businessdegree co-op program, students are immersed in the environments they will experience after graduation. Laurier students learn to think critically and are wellprepared to adapt successfully to a global world of ever-growing complexity. Laurier business and economics alumni can be found as presidents and CEOs of Canada’s leading companies, including Bank of Montreal, Jaguar Land Rover Canada, PepsiCo Foods Canada, AIG Insurance, shop.ca, and many more. More than 2,000 SBE alumni have started their own companies. Located in the heart of the Waterloo Region technology hub, the university has a strong track record for developing successful tech-industry leaders. Hundreds of SBE alumni work at senior-level positions in technology companies in Waterloo Region, including many at the president and/or CEO level. Wilfrid Laurier University is in the midst of a landmark fundraising campaign. The Building Canada’s Best Business School campaign aims to raise $55 million for the Lazaridis School of Business & Economics, representing phase one of a pan-university $125-million campaign. The business school portion of the campaign is raising funds to support student scholarships, help retain and recruit top faculty, complete the new $103-million Lazaridis Hall, and strengthen the Lazaridis School’s unique, pioneering programming. In addition to the Lazaridis gift, other donations have come from TD Bank Group, BBA alumnus Bill Webb and Agnes Wong, BBA alumnus Michael and Hennie Stork, the McGrath family, the Marsland family, Bank of Montreal, and Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada.

UNDERSTANDING REAL ESTATE TERMS AND FORMULAS

8171452_3715

Dino Nicosia, Broker of Record - Investpro Realty and Appraisal Ltd., Brokerage

n this exciting world of Real Estate Investments there are many terms and formulas often used by investors and lenders. As a wise investor you should be familiar with the Real Estate lingo.

Hamilton

The following are some of the most common terms and formulas; Capitalization Rate: This is the most important term in the industry and investors should be prepared to use it to determine value. Sometimes known as the “Cap Rate”, this term represents the percentage return on investment in an “all cash purchase”. This is accomplished by taking the Net Operating Income and dividing it by the current market Cap Rate. For example, suppose you are considering to purchase an apartment building which generates a NOI (net operating income) of $60,000; and assuming the asking price of this property is $900,000. On this scenario the Cap Rate would be 6.6%. In other words at the asking price, you will earn a 6.6% return on the $900,000 investment. Divide the Net Income by the Selling Price. $60,000.00 divided by $900,000.00 equals 6.60% Cap Rate The market Cap Rate should be the key indicator to determine the value of investment properties. The Cap Rate will fluctuate with the market forces of supply, demand, interest rates and political climate. Gross Rent Multiplier (GRM) When we purchase a Real Estate investment, we are really buying the potential rental income, and not just the bricks and mortar. Therefore the Gross rents are sometimes used to determine value. The GRM is what you get by dividing the gross rent into the sale price of a building. For example, if an investment property sells for $1,000,000.00 with gross rents of $250,000.00, the “Multiplier” is 4 time the gross income. Therefore the GRM in this scenario is 4. This number can be a good thumbnail approach to valuing other buildings when you know their gross income. The problem with this method of valuing buildings is that the gross income does not allow for fluctuations in expenses. The best example would be in comparing two identical buildings, where; • On the first building, the tenants pay for own hydro • On the second building, the owner pays hydro and for cable etc. The impact on the value where the owner pays extra expenses will be significantly lower, unless the rents are adjusted higher to compensate for the inclusions. The GRM (Gross Income Multiplier) may be used as a benchmark, however amongst experienced investors the best approach to valuing buildings is by using the capitalization of the net operating income. Effective Gross Income This refers to the actual gross rents and deducting allowance for vacancy and bad debt. Every rental property experiences tenant turnover. The frequency in which it occurs will depend on many factors such as; location, condition, rental charge, economic forces, tenant profile (age, etc.), and property management experience, etc. It is very important that you become familiar with the vacancy rate of the area of the subject property and also the track record of the property turnover rate

Commercial Real Estate & Business Opportunities

Net Operating Income (N.O.I) The Net Operating Income is the amount of cash available after deducting the operating expenses from the Effective Gross Income. Be sure that the N.O.I. is accurate so that a realistic property value can be assessed. To obtain a true N.O.I, you must also include management fees, superintendent wages to the expenses. Do not be fooled by a lean expense ratio, to artificially show a higher net income. Always remember that it is the N.O.I. that sets the probable value of the building.

or costly promotions. However, we now have the option to use free internet advertising, which are becoming more and more cost effective for the landlord.

Operating Expenses As an apartment building specialist, I come across many financial reports and proformas, and it never ceases to amaze me how many operating expenses are “streamlined” to expand the “N.O.I.”, thus artificially increasing the market value of the property. In addition to expenses for heat, hydro, water, realty taxes, the next time you review an income statement, also look for the following expenses:

Leverage The huge advantage of using leverage in a real estate investment is that for a small amount of cash you can purchase a large property. For example, a $100,000.00 down payment can purchase a building worth as much as $1,000,000.00, (10% down payment). On a long term hold, you will benefit from both mortgage reduction and increase in value.

1. Management Fees Whether you intend to manage yourself or hire a property manager, this item should always be expensed at 3% to 5% of the gross income 2. Superintendent/Janitor Wages Again, whether or not you intend to do the work yourself, always expense this wage to determine the true operating expenses. Use approximately $20.00 to $30.00 per unit per month as a guideline. 3. Maintenance/Repairs This cost will vary depending on the type, age and condition of the property, as well as quality of tenants and the past maintenance level of the building. A good guideline is approximately $500.00 to $800.00 per unit per year. 4. Elevator Often the cost of the elevator maintenance are not included in statements. 5. Waste Disposal Garbage disposal charges are often missed on a financial statement. 6. Snow Removal Often the cost of snow clearing are not included in statements 7. Insurance Coverage The property must be insured for fire and other hazards (tenants should cover their own contents). Premiums will vary depending on age and size of the building and be aware that premiums are on the rise. 8. Laundry Expenses On many occasions, you will find the laundry income included in the gross revenues. However, the laundry rentals are often forgotten in the expense column and unless the laundry equipment is owned, look for rental charges of approximately $60.00 a pair per month. 9. Advertising/Promotions, etc. In a tough rental market, you must allocate a reasonable monthly charge for advertising

A good “rule of thumb” for operating expenses is 55% to 60% of the “Effective Gross Income”. There are always minor exceptions where income is higher (and expenses lower) because tenants pay for their own hydro.

Hamilton

Volume 15 Issue 09

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 carrying costs. Also be aware of unforeseen capital expenditures which may tremendously impact the cash flow. Remember that “cash flow is king”, and unless you have deep pockets, always leave a good cash reserve available when required. Debt Service Ratio Used by lenders to establish the maximum loan amount. As an example, let us suppose the Net Operating Income (NOI) is $100,000.00 and assuming the “Debt Service Ratio” used by the Lender is 1.2 then the following steps will determine the maximum loan amount. 1. - Divide the NOI by the “Debt Service Ratio” ($100,000.00 / 1.2 = $83,333) 2. - Divide by 12 months ($83,333/ 12 = $6,944) 3. – Assuming the monthly interest rate factor @ 6% is 0.00644 4. - Divide interest rate factor into monthly payment of $6,944.00 ($6,944 /.00644 = $1,078,260 Therefore the maximum loan amount will be rounded to approximately $1,080,000.00. This will provide a good guideline as you shop for a mortgage. As a wise investor, you must learn the real estate language and know all the important formulas in order to be successful and reduce risk. 8171394_3715

BANK OF CANADA MAINTAINS OVERNIGHT RATE TARGET AT 1/2 PER CENT

he Bank of Canada recently announced that it is maintaining its target for the overnight rate at 1/2 per cent. The Bank Rate is correspondingly 3/4 per cent and the deposit rate is 1/4 per cent. Inflation has evolved in line with the outlook in the Bank’s July Monetary Policy Report (MPR). Total CPI inflation remains near the bottom of the target range, reflecting year-over-year price declines for consumer energy products. Core inflation has been close to two per cent, with disinflationary pressures from economic slack being offset by transitory effects of the past depreciation of the Canadian dollar and some sectorspecific factors. The dynamics of GDP growth in Canada outlined in July’s MPR also remain intact. The stimulative effects of previous monetary policy actions are working their way through the Canadian economy. Canada’s resource sector continues to adjust to lower prices for oil and other commodities, with some spillover to the rest of the economy. These adjustments are complex and are expected to take considerable time. Economic activity continues to be underpinned by solid household spending and a firm recovery in the United States, with particular strength in the sectors of the U.S. economy that are important for Canadian exports.

COM_3715.indd 26

Increasing uncertainty about growth prospects for China and other emerging-market economies, in contrast, is raising questions about the pace of the global recovery. This has contributed to heightened financial market volatility and lower commodity prices. Movements in the Canadian dollar are helping to absorb some of the impact of lower commodity prices and are facilitating the adjustments taking place in Canada’s economy. While the overall export picture is still uncertain, the latest data confirm that exchange rate-sensitive exports are regaining momentum. Meanwhile, risks to financial stability are evolving as expected. Taking all of these developments into consideration, the Bank judges that the risks to the outlook for inflation remain within the zone for which the current stance of monetary policy is appropriate. Therefore, the target for the overnight rate remains at 1/2 per cent. Information note: The next scheduled date for announcing the overnight rate target is 21 October 2015. 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 at the same time.

How to Start a Preventive Maintenance Program by Emma Finch The question of how to start a preventative maintenance (PM) program is extremely common and for good reason. With budgets tight and workers stretched thin, PM has become a nice to have instead of a must have for many organizations. Many operations and maintenance crews er knowing what major equipment failure will occur next. It can be daunting for these crews to think about trying to shift to a more proactive workload. Best practices suggest that 30 percent of all work should be preventative and 90 percent of work orders should be generated by PM inspectations. Sounds good, but again, how does a team move from little to no proactive work to spending nearly a third of its time on proactive work? First off, be assured that increasing the overall percentage of preventive maintenance is an achievable target for any operations and maintenance team. The key is to transition increments.

Greater Toronto Area

Start by focusing on one mission critical system, such as the HVAC. Set up maintenance schedules based on manufacturer guidelines and warranty conditions. As a bonus, cleaning and inspecting HVAC equipment’s various parts can reduce the energy costs associated with the system by up to 50 percent. Once routine maintenance schedules are established for one system, move on to another critical system, such as the roof. Again, set up maintenance schedules, documenting current conditions for future reference. An effective PM program can extend the life of a roof system by years and ensures that, as the roof reaches the end of its life, it can be replaced as a scheduled event rather than in an emergency situation. Creating schedules for these two systems alone can usually move a workload close to 20 percent proactive maintenace. Continue on in this way to build PM schedules for all systems. Concentrating on one system at a time builds a PM program at a comfortable speed, which allows the team to get used to a certain level of scheduled work before more in introduced. As PM schedules are established for each system, reactive work will start to decline as problems that may have cropped up later, in a bigger capacity, are caught early. Implementing a comprehensive PM program takes time, but for those functioning in mostly reactive environments, making small changes means less chaos to deal with on

a daily basis and more time to focus on proactive work. Research supports the 80/20 rule in facilities: 80 percent of a facilty’s maintenance issues can be addressed by performing preventative maintenance on only 20 percent of the facility’s systems, so starting with the major systems can greatly reduce the emergency workload. Another consideration for a PM program is whether a maintenance crew can be dedicated solely to emergency work while the rest of the crews spend their time on proactive activities. It’s common for all technicians to be available to handle reactive work. While that can be a suitable approach, it can also lead to confusion. A crew may not be prepared for a call when it comes in, or the crew may have to stop work on something that’s more important in the long term but less so in the immediate moment. Think about travel time too because that’s one of the biggest drawbacks of a highly reactive work environment: the amount of time spent travelling from one

If the maintenance team isn’t big enough to devote multiple people to reactive work, then think about designating one person as the go-to reactive worker so that everyone else can continue on with preventive activities. Team members can take turns serving as the go-to reactive worker so that everyone builds experience with both reactive and proactive maintenance work. The result is a stable schedule for team members doing PM that leaves team members available to respond to situations that require immediate attention. So, how do you implement a preventative maintenance program? One system at time. It’s a process that starts with small steps and requires consistency and patience. Consider this: studies indicate that 70 to 85 percent of equipment failures are self-induced, meaning their cause can be traced back to improper maintenance practices.

so far outweigh the consequences of not doing it that, for an organization to ensure optimal equipment life at minimal cost, it’s absolutely a must have. A full PM program is not beyond the reach of any team.

GTA REALTORS REPORT commercial market figures

oronto Real Estate Board President Mark McLean announced that TREB Commercial Network Members reported a combined 193,443 square feet of leased industrial, commercial/retail and office space in August 2015. This result represented a large decrease compared to August 2014. The industrial market segment continued to account for the majority of square footage leased, but the share was much lower than usual, at 57 per cent compared to a more normal 70-plus per cent.

There was a combined 48 industrial, commercial/retail and office sales reported in August 2015. This result represented a decrease from 57 sales reported in August 2014. Average sale prices reported on a per square foot basis for transactions with pricing disclosed were up for the industrial and office segments and down for the commercial/retail segment. For the industrial segment in particular, a lack of large property transactions contributed to the high average price increase, because larger properties generally sell for less on a per square foot basis.

For properties leased on a per square foot net basis with pricing disclosed, average lease rates were up for industrial and commercial/retail properties, to $6.19 and $22.82 respectively compared to $5.79 and $16.14 in August 2014. It is important to point out that in both of these market segments there were fewer transactions for larger properties compared to last year, which had a compositional impact on average lease rates. The average lease rate for office properties was down slightly to $12.53 from $12.95 a year earlier. “On a month-to-month basis the number and size of commercial transactions can be volatile simply because many of the deals are more complicated and can take time to get done. With this said, it is also important to note that economic growth in Canada has been down for the last two quarters, which could have prompted some firms to put their property investment decisions on hold,”said Mr. McLean. “Looking forward, the hope is that the lower value of the Canadian dollar vis-à-vis the US will prompt greater demand for goods and services produced in the GTA from south of the border. This could lead to some companies to expand their operations,”continued Mr. McLean.

DRIVEN TO LOCATE NEAR RAPID TRANSIT - Colliers Report

olliers International’s Report on GTA Rapid Public Transit Infrastructure finds a relationship between success of commercial real estate and its proximity to rapid transit, as businesses are now demanding their offices be close to accessible, rapid public transit systems.

“Simply put, the message to developers, landlords and businesses is very clear,” says John Arnoldi, Colliers International’s director in Toronto.“The GTA office markets with more than 60 per cent of their total office space within 400 metres or walking distance of rapid transit have a higher average rental rate and lower average vacancy rates than the rest of the GTA. Employees have spoken: they want to work within walking distance of where they can take transit to – they no longer wish to drive.” The Colliers report was an extensive analysis of office leasing and transportation within the GTA. This report presented initial findings of Colliers’ larger analysis of the unique relationships that exist between the current/future rapid public transportation infrastructure within the GTA and the commercial real estate industry. Findings predict t future transit projects could increase competition within the office leasing and investment landscape in the GTA, particularly

in the untapped GTA West (Airport Corporate Centre) and around the Don Mills/Eglinton area. Results show office buildings within walking distance to rapid transit have continually experienced steady positive absorption, and office markets near rapid transit are seeing higher asking rental rates, lower vacancy rates and faster pre-leasing cycles. Most important to building owners is office tenants’ willingness to pay higher rents for office space close to rapid transit. This is a notable bottom line reality owners and landlords must begin to pay attention to in the next decade. This Colliers report also shows while office space that is accessible to rapid public transit is performing well, partially because demand is outpacing supply, , the message to developers is that office leasing tenants and commercial real estate purchasers are continually increasing their demand for properties within the GTA that are close to rapid public transit. Colliers International Group Inc. is a global leader in commercial real estate services with more than 16,300 professionals operating from 502 offices in 67 countries. With an enterprising culture and significant insider ownership, Colliers professionals provide a full range of services to real estate occupiers, owners and investors worldwide.

WHAT RENTERS REALLY WANT

Five things condo investors should look for

our investment condo is only useful to you if you can find tenants to rent it out and put cash back in your pocket. Shopping for a condo from the perspective of a landlord is different than shopping as a homebuyer. Yes, you have to like it. But more importantly, renters have to want it.

With an eye toward what will draw the most quality tenants, here are my top five most “rentable”qualities to look for:

3. EXTENSIVE AMENITIES. While some renters prefer a smaller building with little or no amenities, most would choose a building with plenty of amenities over one without. Topping the list? A good gym. 4. FLEXIBLE FLOOR PLAN. Floor plans that allow for different uses of the space – for example a den that could double as a second bedroom or a home office – will open up your unit to a larger pool of potential renters. 5. WINDOW COVERINGS. This seems like a small thing, but something that is very important to tenants. Invest in a good set of window coverings and your unit will be more attractive to tenants and will rent out faster.

1. CONVENIENT LOCATION. Renters today more than anything are concerned about having a location that is convenient to work, shopping and pubic transit. Buy near these three, and you will have a winner. 2. AFFORDABLE PRICE. Following location, the thing that renters look at most closely is cost. The lower the price, the more potential tenants you’ll attract. Keep in mind that most renters aren’t looking for spare rooms and fancy finishes. Buy small and buy cheap.

FOUR REASONS FOR COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE OPTIMISM

emand for Canadian office and industrial space points to areas of strength at a time when low oil prices are creating significant headwinds for the national economy. CBRE Limited’s National Office and Industrial Second Quarter 2015 Statistical Summary reveals four reasons why you should be optimistic about commercial real estate in Canada.

“We didn’t have to look hard for a silver lining this quarter. While the Canadian economy may not be firing on all cylinders, there are sectors that are actively leasing office and industrial space across the country. And for investors in commercial real estate, property values remain strong, which is usually a catalyst for interesting developments,” said Ross Moore, director of Research for CBRE in Canada. “While the Calgary office market continues to recalibrate, one property type in one city doesn’t represent the state of affairs across the country. Downtown Vancouver and Toronto continue to have active office leasing markets, while demand for industrial space has actually rebounded in Alberta. We are also encouraged by the fact that businesses are adjusting to new economic realities and leasing activity is increasing in Eastern Canada.”

FOUR REASONS FOR COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE OPTIMISM: 1) NEW DOWNTOWN OFFICE TOWERS SPUR OFFICE LEASING: New buildings remain a major draw for tenants. Three of the four office towers that were completed in Vancouver this quarter (MNP Tower, Telus Garden, Pacific Centre/725 Granville) were more than 90 per cent preleased. The completion of new office buildings in downtown Vancouver and Montreal led the national downtown office market to post positive absorption following a substantial contraction last quarter. “Landlords delivered 2.7 million square feet of new office space across Canada into an uneven economy, but tenants are still pursuing new space and demand for new product more than offset the 605,834 sq. ft. of office space that was put back on the market in Calgary this quarter,” said Moore. 2) INDUSTRIAL LEASING REBOUNDS IN ALBERTA After a total 2.3 million sq. ft. of industrial space was returned to the Alberta market last quarter, including the Target Distribution Centre north of Calgary, there was 1.4 million sq. ft. of net industrial leasing in the province in the second quarter of 2015. The fact that the Target facility was quickly purchased is indicative of confidence in the long-term viability of the region as a logistics and distribution hub. “The Edmonton industrial market is a bellwether for the regional economy, so it was encouraging to see an uptick in demand for industrial space in Edmonton this quarter,” said Moore. 3) SUBURBAN OFFICE LEASING OUTPACES DOWNTOWN DEMAND: While most industry watchers are preoccupied with the wave of new construction in downtown office markets across the country, demand for suburban office space continues to surprise. There was 276,028 sq. ft. of net absorption in suburban office markets across the country in the second quarter, compared to 258,391sq. ft. in downtown office markets nationally. “Many Canadians enjoy living in suburban areas so it makes sense for businesses to locate nearby. For investors looking for stability in times of economic uncertainty, the suburbs might be worth a second look,” said Moore. 4) ECONOMIC ACTIVITY AND LEASING SHIFTS TO CENTRAL CANADA: Lower energy prices and a weak Canadian dollar are adding momentum to commercial real estate in Central and Eastern Canada. This is especially true in the industrial market where manufacturers are expected to benefit from competitive advantages on these fronts, in addition to a resurgent U.S. economy. Over 5.7 million sq. ft. of net industrial space was leased in Central and Eastern Canada compared to 2.8 million sq. ft. in Western Canada in the second quarter. “One only has to look at the Greater Toronto Area, which accounts for 43 per cent of industrial space in Canada, to get a sense of the building momentum. The industrial availability rate fell 60 basis points to 4.2 per cent - the lowest availability rate in North America along with the San Francisco Peninsula,”said Moore. “While there are challenges and not every segment of the office or industrial market is surging, commercial real estate remains solid overall. There are signs of strength and there are certainly reasons to be optimistic,” said Moore.

IN EVER-CHANGING CANADIAN RETAIL LANDSCAPE, RETAILERS UP SERVICE GAME TO STAND OUT Most say financial outlook is positive amid industry uncertainty, according to new study

etailers are feeling more confident than they have in years, and say improvements in customer service are helping to drive more sales. In data compiled from the third annual Canadian Retail Insights Report released recently by American Express, the vast majority (82 per cent) of survey respondents cited better customer service experiences as the reason behind their jump in sales, and virtually all (97 per cent) said they are using customer service as a way to differentiate themselves from competitors. Despite concerns about the health of the economy retailers remain optimistic and focused on growth. Eighty-four per cent of retailers said the financial outlook over the next 12 months is positive, the highest level seen since 2012, and representing a steady climb over the past three years (76 per cent in 2014 and 80 per cent in 2012 based on past year’s survey results).

More than half (56 per cent) of those surveyed said their company’s sales have grown significantly since 2014, while 28 per cent said sales have remained consistent. Surveying decision makers in the gas, grocery, restaurant, fast food, and general retail sectors nationwide, the Report focuses on what’s top of mind for Canadian merchants, including: the state of the industry; challenges and pain points; growth strategy; customer loyalty and acquisition; competition and strategies for attracting customers.

COM_3715.indd 50

“In today’s market consumers have more options than ever before, and to stay competitive we’re seeing businesses make customer service a major priority,” says Jennifer Hawkins, Vice President and General Manager of Merchant Services, American Express Canada.“Customer service has long been a key ingredient of successful companies and we understand this first hand. Not surprisingly nearly all retailers surveyed told us they are making efforts to improve service as a way to stand out from the pack, and in turn, grow loyalty and revenue.” CHANGING CANADIAN RETAIL LANDSCAPE: GREATER COMPETITION The consensus among retailers (49 per cent) is that their industry is becoming more competitive. Nearly one third (30 per cent) are concerned about U.S. retailers moving to Canada, and even more (38 per cent) worry about the overall impact of the failure of large retailers has had on the retail landscape. Despite the positive outlook, when asked to specifically identify their top concern, 21 per cent called out the overall health of the economy. DIFFERENCES BY INDUSTRY The report also found that the experience for retailers differs by industry. For example, gas was the only sector not to list customer service as their top priority (82 per cent), opting instead for sales and promotions (86 per cent). Significantly more businesses in the grocery (87 per cent vs 66 per cent) and restaurant (82 per cent vs 67 per cent) sectors are investing in improving customer service in 2015 than 2014. While fast food is focusing on both hiring (49 per cent) and opening new stores (27 per cent), only nine per cent of retail respondents reported plans to open new stores in the coming year. For more information, please visit AmericanExpress.ca About the American Express Retail Insights Report: The study was commissioned by American Express Canada and conducted by Nielsen. The survey was conducted between June 1 and June 22, 2015 and involved a national telephone survey of 375 Canadian decision makers. Industries included Gas, Grocery, Restaurant, Fast Food and General Retail sectors with 42 per cent of respondents as owners or operators, 41 per cent as store or restaurant managers and 7 per cent as senior managers. A sample of this size carries a margin of error of +/- 5.1 per cent. Industry quotas were set at 75 per industry which carries a margin of error of +/- 11.3 per cent.” American Express in Canada operates as Amex Bank of Canada and Amex Canada Inc. Both are wholly owned subsidiaries of the New York based American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. American Express opened its first offices in Toronto and Hamilton in 1853 and now employs approximately 3,000 Canadians coast-to-coast.

The Pro Funds’ Client Experience: Flipping Properties with Zero Down

Pro Funds Mortgages is happy to announce a new article series, The Pro Funds’ Client Experience. These articles will feature a variety of clients sharing their knowledge and experience in dealing with Pro Funds to accomplish their real estate focused endeavours. Here is Andrew Hines, a Mortgage Agent and borrower with Pro Funds who shares how he has utilized private funding to acquire and build and income property. Rewind to May 1st 2015. Closing day. It was finally coming together. The results of 2 months of planning, due diligence and a whole lot of waiting were finally paying oﬀ. And I mean literally, my lawyer actually called me to let me know that I was getting a cheque for $73 upon closing of my purchase of a beat up old rental. Wow, just when I thought buying real estate couldn’t be any more rewarding. The deal looks something like this: I buy a property with zero down, receive funds which are held in trust to pay for my renovations and expenses, and then I sell the property and get paid. Not a bad deal…? “How is this possible”, you might ask? Well real estate is a business. And like any good business, flipping requires a good business plan. From the beginning I made sure that I knew my numbers. When I found the property, I knew what it was worth, I knew what it could be worth and I knew what I would have to put into it to get that value. So what did I do? With the help of Pro Funds, I found a few private lenders to lend me the entire purchase price and renovation cost, in addition to my interest payments for the 6-month period I allotted myself to do the work. As anyone thinking about flipping a property knows… you don’t get paid until you sell. So paying things like mortgage payments and property taxes during the process can become a burden. For me, being able to borrow the money to cover those items made it that much easier to get through the process and prevent any new grey hairs from forming just above the sideburns. There was some heavy lifting along the way and a few not-so-helpful contractors… But I think the memory of taking a chimney down piece-by-piece using a sledge hammer will always stick with me. That was fun. Business Investor

The Pro Funds’ Client Experience: Flipping Properties with Zero Down

So how can you structure your very own “zero down flip”? 1. Know your numbers - See a lot of properties, find out what they are selling for, both before and after the proposed renovations, and build yourself a buﬀer of 20% over and above what you think it will cost. Talk to contractors, get estimates and be ready to play hardball if needed. 2. Back it up – Start the process with comparable sales (your realtor can help with this) this is how you’re going to convince your lender that you can actually get the property sold for what you think you can sell it for at the end of the day. If they’re going to lend you money they need to know you have an “exit strategy”. Be sure that you’re very clear on what yours is. Good mortgage brokers will require an appraisal because they have an interest in making sure everyone is protected. You should expect to provide an appraisal for the property “as is” and “upon completion” of the proposed renovations. 3. Work with a broker that focuses on creative financing – I’ve worked for, and used Pro Funds Mortgages for financing for 5 years now. Knowing I can get real estate financed has allowed me to be a lot more aggressive with my real estate acquisitions. 4. Be willing to give up other collateral – my portfolio is an open book when it comes to getting new money. I put up one of my other properties to avoid putting any money down on this deal and I would do it again in a heartbeat. The ease and speed of operating this way allows me to do more than I ever could with a bank.

Tenant default . . .

What can a commercial landlord do?

By Jayson Schwarz

ou have signed a five-year lease with a new tenant. His credit checked out, he did improvements and all is good. Suddenly, two years go by, and then cheques start to bounce. You try to speak to the tenant, communication breaks down, and you are owed money. Your mortgage company wants its payment what can you do? The real question is a decision between distress and forfeiture. Ok, what does this mean? A distress is when you enter the premises take control change the locks and seize all of the Tenant’s goods on the premises. A forfeiture occurs when you change the locks and terminate the lease. Remember the lease is your blueprint on how to proceed and if you have a loose lease you may have limited options. Whatever the lease does not cover the Commercial Tenancies Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. L.7 will regulate. Distress: Before a landlord can distress the property, a few conditions will need to be satisfied. You must give the tenant notice in writing of the breach. The governing law states that if notice is required, unless the lease says otherwise (remember what I said about loose leases), such notice must be given fifteen days before changing the locks; Provided you have the authority by lease or statute the way to go about this is to attend at the premises with a locksmith and your carefully prepared “Notice of Distress” and change the locks. Remember you must give the tenant access to the premises during normal working hours to attend on the premises. Your lawyer can give you detailed advice on how to wend your way through this technical area so you do not mess up.

Why distress? Subject to HST you have the right if the tenant does not pay you current (quite often plus accelerated rent) within five days of the distress to have the tenant’s goods sold to pay your rent and costs. You need to do appraisals etc. Again consult your lawyer because you cannot afford to mess up doing this. As a comment a Landlord’s distress comes just about ahead of everyone including secured bank debt except monies still owing on a conditional sales contract and a bankruptcy trustee if the tenant goes bankrupt before you have completed a sale. And worst of all HST. The huge downside risk is HST. If the Tenant owed HST for the period prior to your seizure you the Landlord become liable to remit monies received on the Distress first to monies still owing on a conditional sales contract and then HST. This means you could go through the whole exercise and end up with nothing. Check before you seize!!!!! If you get all of your money the lease is back in good standing and the tenant’s obligations continue. In a forfeiture you re-enter the property for the express purpose of terminating the lease, throwing the tenant out and moving forward to release immediately. This is a judgement call based on the value of the tenant’s assets and your own business reasons for how to proceed. Again notice is critical and often your lawyer can help you find a Bailiff to assist in properly terminating the lease and locking-out the tenant. Landlords must ensure that they are protecting themselves before terminating a lease. Once the landlord re-enters properly and in accordance with the law and the lease, the property is secured for the benefit of the landlord alone and the tenant is denied access. The landlord and tenant relationship is ended. The tenant may remove its property and the landlord must try to stem his or her damages by re-renting to someone else. This is old law and some counsel are taking the position there is no duty to mitigate in a commercial lease. My position is that failure to try and reduce the loss by taking steps to re-lease is neither smart from a business or legal perspective. You still have the right to sue the tenant for your losses however, but generally good luck unless you have personal guarantees. 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 web site (www.schwarzlaw.ca), email (info@ schwarzlaw.ca), and give us your questions, concerns, critiques and quandaries. We will try to deal with them in print or electronic form.
