Healthy outlook predicted for Canadian real estate investments in 2018

I

n its 2018 Canadian Economic Outlook and Market Fundamentals Research Report released earlier this month, Morguard Corp.’s report predicts another year of robust commercial real estate investment activity for Canada.

“Investors remain enthusiastic about the Canadian commercial real estate market after a record volume of transactions in 2017,” says Keith Reading, director of research at Morguard.

“There is a high supply of capital ready to be invested and Canadian commercial real estate is a proven performer. We are predicting another very busy and competitive market environment across the country in the coming year.”

Downtown Vancouver and Toronto are expected to remain the most coveted markets for investment in 2018. With a limited supply of properties available, investors will be forced to look for opportunities further afield. Suburban Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal are also expected to see strong activity levels in 2018 while Alberta, which had previously depressed country-wide statistics, is also showing signs of reanimation.

“Intense bidding for a limited pool of downtown properties

will force investors to look elsewhere for opportunity,” says Reading.“Class A properties in suburban markets, particularly those near transit nodes, will be in high demand. Edmonton and Calgary will also see increased activity as investors look for high-quality assets in a recovering market and economy.”

In the retail market, the Sears liquidation announcement will put a damper on near-term fundamentals in the country’s shopping centres. The departure will be partially offset by a steady stream of new international entrants to Canada.

Reading says the retail market will continue to offer stable long-term opportunity for Canadian investors as malls are being re-envisioned as investors and landlords turn to nontraditional tenants including medical, services, entertainment and government agencies as part of their transformation into community hubs.

“Long term, market-dominant retail centres should be able to alleviate immediate pressure on vacancy by providing prime space to new, high-growth traditional retailers and service retailers,” says Reading.“The fact remains that Canada is a country of shoppers, and recent positive economic and employment trends should drive healthy spending growth for the foreseeable future.”

With the pace of interest rate hikes expected to remain slow, a continued and abundant flow of low-cost debt and equity capital will power Canadian commercial real estate investment in 2018.

LEA D i n BU ILD IN G S - ( P l u m b i n g & Pa i n t ) LEAD - This article is intended only to make the reader aware of issues related to lead in buildings.

Sources of Lead in Potable Water Supply A. Lead Pipes - have been used prior to the 1950’s - Lead underground service piping was in common use potable water piping serving the building.

- Lead supply lines within buildings B. Lead Solder - was used in copper solder joints up until the lated 1980’s What can you do?

1. Main water supply lines. Check with the local municipal authority for guidelines and possible financial assistance.

2. Lead Solder joints - If replacing the plumbing is not an option at least run the water at the taps for several minutes before using it.

C. Paint - Prior to 1978 lead based paints were used.

What can you do?

1. Repair - paint with a new layer of latex paint.

2. Encapsulate - cover with new material , e.g. vinyl, drywall, wallboard 3. Replace - e.g. old windows having old painted frames 4. Removal - professional stripping of old painted surfaces.

Check with the authority having jurisdiction.

How much lead is dangerous? A simple comparison is that lead

dust equivalent to one sugar package spread over a 100 room building would be two times higher than the American federal hazard level..

“Blood lead levels in children during the 1960s or 1970s were typically several times higher than blood lead levels seen today. Now, measured blood lead levels of Canadians are typically 30-50 per cent of blood lead guidelines of approximately 10 µg/dL or 0.48 References; 1. CMHC, Tech Series 04-125 µmol/L. It takes an unusual circumstance—high local water leads, a 2.

What is a Minute Book

and why do you need one?

By Jayson Schwarz LL.M and Evonne Finnegan LLB

M

ost people operating businesses reach the point where they need to incorporate for a variety of reasons. Once the corporation is incorporated, whether federally or provincially, you need to keep certain records.

These are evidence of the activities of the corporation and are usually subject to government review and audit to ensure you are in compliance. The book that this information is kept in is called a “Minute Book.� The reason is that the minutes of meetings are kept there, and so the name.

Please say you saw it in The Commercial Investor

What is in a minute book? Here is a list of what to expect on the original set up: The Articles of Incorporation: •

bylaws

•

initial resolutions setting out officers elected

•

date incorporated

•

approval of bylaws

•

forms of share certificates

•

authorization re bills of sale etc.

•

corporate seal

•

registered office

•

consent to act as directors

•

consent of officers

•

resolution of shareholders electing directors

•

resolution of directors electing officers

•

subscription for shares

•

resolution of director re allotment and issuance of shares and relating share certificates

•

resolution of directors re banking and signing officers with attached bank account information

•

resolution of directors re financial year-end

•

resolution of shareholders re appointment of accountants and exemption from audit provisions

•

directors, officers and shareholders registers.

As you can see, a lot of things.

After the initial set-up there are certain corporation events that should be recorded in these minute books and they include: changes of corporation directors, details of the corporation’s financial statements and filing periods, changes to the share structure or shareholder or securities changes, or any decisions to buy, sell or change property and annual meetings to approve the corporation’s activities. Matters that are required to be recorded in the corporation’s minute book include records of the minutes of the provincially required annual shareholders meeting.

Small companies with one or two shareholders are permitted by law to sign resolutions approving the annual resolution – provided that all the shareholders of the corporation sign the resolutions. The minute book should also contain a record of special resolutions passed by the corporation’s shareholders.

A similar requirement exists for keeping a record of director’s meetings.

It is never too late to start maintaining your minute book records, and starting to do so now can prevent a delay in later business of the corporation. government compliance, why are the minute books of a corporation so important?

Frequently, in corporate transactions, such as the assumption or provision of loans, the sale or purchase of property or the sale of a business or its assets, lawyers are faced with blank stares from clients when they ask for the corporation’s up-to-date minute books in order to prepare for the closing.

Business owners are more focused on operating their business than maintaining their corporate books. Clients are often unaware of the existence of their minute book or the importance to maintain it regularly. Failure to have up-todate records in the corporation minute books can lead to delay and increased legal costs when trying to get the deal done. The accuracy of the corporation’s minute book is vital as it is relied upon by purchasers, lenders and investors in these transactions.

In certain instances, it may be difficult to update a minute book where officers or shareholders have died, are untraceable, or when previous business partners have parted ways. Regular updating of the minute book prevents any of these costly delays.

It is never too late to start maintaining your minute book records, and starting to do so now can prevent a delay in later business of the corporation.

Disclaimer: The articles provided herein are for general information purposes only and not intended as or to be relied upon for legal advice.

Consult with a lawyer for your unique situation.

Other matters that should be recorded in a corporation’s minute book include all revenue filings, any change of address of the corporation, any change in directors of a corporation, including a list of past and present directors and the dates they become or ceased to become a director. Failure to maintain such records can result in significant fines up to $25,000 and may prevent a corporation from maintaining proceedings in court. So apart from record keeping and

UNDERSTANDING REAL ESTATE TERMS AND FORMULAS

By Dino Nicosia, Broker of Record, Investpro Realty Ltd., Brokerage

Hamilton

I

n this complex world of Real Estate investment, understanding the many terms, formulas and strategies will help you in making a wise investment decision. Let’s begin with the Operating Expenses, which are the most important factors in determining cash flow.

OPERATING EXPENSES In my career, I have come across many financial reports on investment properties. It never ceases to amaze me how many operating expenses are streamlined to exaggerate the “Net Income”, thus artificially increasing the market value of the property. In addition to the regular expenses for heat, hydro, water, property taxes, etc., the next time you review an income statement, also look for the following expenses.

1. Management Fees Whether you intend to manage yourself or hire a property manager, this item should always be expensed at 3% to 7% of the gross income, depending on the size of the property.

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 $40.00 – $50.00 per unit, per month as a guideline. This will vary depending on the duties.

3. Maintenance/Repairs This cost will also vary depending on the type, age and condition of the property, as well as the quality of tenants. A good guideline is approximately $600.00 to $800.00 per unit, per year.

4. Elevator If the property has an elevator, make sure the elevator costs are included in the expenses. This would include the elevator monthly servicing cost.

5. Garbage Disposal Determine if the garbage is picked up by the City at no cost, or by a private company that would invoice the owner. This cost is often overlooked.

6. Insurance Coverage The property must be insured for fire and other hazards and this significant cost should not be overlooked. Premiums will vary depending on age and size of the building and be aware that premiums are on the rise.

7. 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. Unless the laundry equipment is owned, always look for rental charges in the expenses.

8. Advertising/Promotions, etc. In a tough rental market, you must allocate a reasonable monthly charge for advertising or costly promotions.

9. Hot Water Tank Rentals. Unless the tank is owned, look for the rental charges.

A good “rule of thumb” for operating expenses is 50% to 60% of the “Effective Gross Income” (a term that will be discussed in a future issue). Always remember that it is the Net Operating Income that sets the probable value of the building. Therefore, to accurately establish the true N.O.I., all the actual expenses must be accounted for, or you could end up paying too much for the property.

SkyViews CONSIDERATIONS WHEN SELLING YOUR APARTMENT BUILDING When it comes to selling your apartment building, there are many things to consider. The most important, however, is which brokerage firm you will choose to represent your interests and generate the right potential buyers. The following is a general guideline for choosing the right brokerage firm for you.

your property, the right brokerage will utilize what is called “target marketing”. Having access to multiple forms of communication, your brokerage should identify the best strategy to reach all buyers in the apartment building industry directly, resulting in you getting the most efficient marketing results.

1) Go with Experience Real Estate markets change from year to year, even from month to month. When dealing with a brokerage, you need to find the delicate balance of experience coupled with the up-to-date understanding of today’s current marketplace and trends. Experience alone will fail to provide you with strategies that will apply to current trends in the industry. On the other hand, a brokerage that lacks experience will not be able to accurately predict and prepare for upcoming trends.

6) Knowing the Buyers Your ideal brokerage is connected not only to you but also to a network of current buyers. When you are ready for your property to be listed, your brokerage should already have contacts with potential buyers and know who would be the right fit for your building.

Greater Toronto Area

2) Look Out for Number One Above all else, the brokerage you choose should look after your interests and work hard knowing that they have your trust, confidence and commitment. Your brokerage should ultimately be looking to serve your needs throughout the process of selling.

3) Take the Right Approach Some brokerages focus on the approach of “Bring Me an Offer”. While multiple offers can be beneficial, finding the right buyer with the right offer is the most crucial element in working with a brokerage. A good brokerage will bring the right people to the table to help you sell your building.

4) Know Your Value Many brokerages waste valuable time and resources hoping to pinpoint the market value for your building.

The right brokerage, however, will have the knowledge and experience to provide an accurate opinion of value prior to even listing your building. Knowing what your building is worth will help you get the right return on your investment.

5) Exposure is Key Marketing your property is not just a matter of using one or two forms of communication to blanket the market in hopes of finding potential buyers. To properly market

7) Real Estate Networking Along with knowledge of current buyers, a brokerage should have already established relationships with other companies in the industry - appraisers, environmental and structural inspectors, financial institutions, etc.

Having an established network of industry professionals can assist you in bringing your transaction to a quicker close.

8) Beyond the Offer Many real estate transactions fail at the most crucial stage... the due diligence process. Having a brokerage that engages in a thorough due diligence process ensures that your building’s information is verified for the buyer and your transaction closes smoothly and promptly.

9) Get What You Pay For Whether you are paying a low or high commission fee to the brokerage of your choice, you need to be confident in the level of service you received. The right brokerage will be dedicated to providing the ultimate service for the commission fees you pay.

The Bottom Line When all is said and done, the most important element in dealing with a brokerage is achieving top dollar for your apartment building. Finding the right brokerage -one that fulfills the above criteria - ensures that you will walk away from your transaction with the confidence that you have received exceptional service, maximum exposure, hassle-free processes, and the financial results you had planned for.

First steps to starting a small business What do entrepreneurs look like?

By George Grignano and Will Townsend

T

he right attributes, a good idea, a plan to make it work and a way to finance your business is the formula to be followed to become successful. Here are some considerations:

WHAT DO ENTREPRENEURS LOOK LIKE? Before you start your own business, be sure you have the personality traits that successful entrepreneurs display.

The familiar characteristics of a successful entrepreneur include: OPTIMISM – entrepreneurs focus on solutions not problems PASSION – the quality that fuels their business and their personal lives

Please say you saw it in The Commercial Investor

PERSISTENCE – entrepreneurs keep going in times of adversity and stay focused on the end goal FLEXIBILITY – the ability to adapt to a changing environment EDUCATION – not formal education but a desire to learn and a drive to improve FOCUS – entrepreneurs focus on the big vision and recognize that short-term wins, although important, must add to longterm success.

GENERATING A BUSINESS IDEA The next step to setting up your own business is to identify a gap in the market that your product or service will exploit. This is easier said than done and can be the toughest part of setting up your own business. To do this, ask yourself some searching questions. What services or products are missing from the market? Could you invent a new product? What do you dislike about existing products and services? Could you improve them?

Using your own life experiences to inspire your ideas can help you spot business opportunities. This will also make you passionate about your product as you will be able to see and sell the benefits. Remember, passion is one of the key characteristics of a successful entrepreneur.

TURNING YOUR IDEA INTO A STRATEGIC PLAN Studies show that a significant amount of new businesses with no business plan fail within the first two years. The adage is true: fail to plan and you plan to fail. Your business plan reflects how you see your business developing and maps out how you intend to drive your business forward. Your plan should set out your product, your intended market, and your key financial targets such as projected sales and profits.

FINANCING YOUR PLAN Your plan should also show the seed capital you need to start up and your day-to-day working capital requirement.

It is vital that your assumptions and estimates are accurate and reasonable. Do this and you will be able to foresee any problems and resolve them before they happen. A robust business plan allows you and potential investors to see how your business may perform in the future.

investors will usually be venture capital firms or business angels. ~ Consider bootstrapping, a way of starting a business without external finance. This method is more strategic and focuses on creating cash flow, minimizing expenses and reinvesting profits.

STRUCTURING YOUR BUSINESS How you structure your business will depend on what it is, how you finance it, and your long-term business goals. It will likely be a sole proprietor, partnership, franchise or corporation.

BEFORE DECIDING ON YOUR STRUCTURE, YOU SHOULD HAVE ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS: ~ Is it important that you limit your personal liability? ~ Does your business need to meet any regulatory requirements that may have a bearing on your business structure? ~ How important are ease and set-up costs? One structure may be easier, quicker and cheaper than another. ~ Do you have an exit plan? If so, consider how the structure choices impact on your plan.

The tax and accounting requirements you have to meet will depend on where you operate. Also depending on where you operate, there may be government tax incentives, so be sure to investigate this. Wherever you are and whatever your business, choosing how to structure your business is an important decision. It is worth seeking professional tax and accounting advice to help you make the right choice.

Becoming a successful entrepreneur isn’t easy. Most successful people will tell you there is no right or wrong way and that to be successful you must be willing to fail. If you have the right entrepreneurial characteristics, the right idea and structure your business the right way, you’ll stand a good chance of succeeding.

HERE ARE SOME WAYS FOR YOU TO FINANCE YOUR BUSINESS: ~ Investigate any government support such as grants or loans. ~ Borrow money from a bank or other lender.

George Grignano, CA, is a Partner at KRP Kestenberg Rabinowicz Partners LLP. www.krp.ca, Accountants For Entrepreneurs in Markham, ON.

~ Ask for help from friends or family.

Will Townsend, CA, is Senior Audit Manager with Cooney Carey in Dublin, Ireland.

~ Look at equity finance, where you raise money from external investors in return for a share of your business. These

Avison Young names new CFO

A

vison Young named Christine Battist as a principal and new chief financial officer of the company on Jan. 17. Battist’s role will be to lead the company’s finance and accounting organization. Based in the firm’s Chicago office, she will also serve on Avison Young’s corporate leadership team and participate in the development and execution of the company’s long-term growth strategy and profit goals.

“Our leadership team could not be more thrilled to welcome Christine to the CFO role,” says chair and CEO Mark E. Rose.“Her appointment reflects Avison Young’s continuing effort to build the most talented and diverse management team in the industry. Christine is a finance thought leader with a proven track record and keen understanding of the levers that propel shareholder value. She has confidently navigated companies through exponential growth.

Christine will lead the overall management of Avison Young’s finance team and, sharing the benefits of her widespread experience, provide strategic and practical input to the management of the business. Christine will manage the financing of our company’s growth and relationships with investors and financing sources, and be responsible for the financial aspects of corporate-development decisions regarding acquisitions, divestitures and other related transactions, driving the company’s continued rapid growth and success.”

Battist succeeds Gary Hubbard, who, after facilitating the smooth transition of the chief financial officer duties to Battist and leading the completion of certain ongoing projects, intends to retire later this year after a 37-year career as a financial executive with global corporations.

“I’m excited to be part of Avison Young’s collaborative global culture, which prides itself on providing premier client service,” says Battist. “I’m looking forward to joining a dynamic, highly strategic leadership team

that is committed to growth and commercial real estate industry leadership. I’ll strive to transform Avison Young’s enterprise capabilities to support the agile and efficient execution of key initiatives for the purpose of sustainable – and profitable – growth. I look forward to collaborating with my new colleagues across the company as we contribute to Avison Young’s ongoing global expansion.”

Battist holds a bachelor of business administration in accounting from St. Norbert College in De Pere, Wisconsin. Committed to community involvement, she volunteers her service and financial expertise to organizations that promote education and financial independence for women and children, including the United Way and Girl Scouts.

ReDev Properties

moves into commercial construction

C

ommercial real estate manager, ReDev Properties, has launched a commercial construction division with the start of construction at Jacksonport Retail in Calgary, Alberta. Work will begin shortly after the company completes the purchase of the site, with its joint venture partner.

The property already has a number of existing commercial buildings and offers the opportunity to build retail and condo buildings for resale on almost three acres of land.

“This was the right time in ReDev Properties’ evolution to become involved in this type of development project,” says

ReDev founder and President Richard Crenian. “I have experience in the development of commercial condos and residential units, and it is clear there is a strong demand for projects like Jacksonport Retail.”

It also marks a significant change in ReDev’s strategy within the commercial real estate industry.

“While covered malls are facing many challenges, customer foot traffic in neighbourhood plazas remains very high,” Crenian explains. “We know there is growing demand for the core retail outlets and services we offer at our plazas.”

While ReDev Properties is also involved in negotiations for another project similar to Jacksonport Retail as its business model shifts towards more redevelopment of retail and commercial condos, there is nothing in the pipeline for Ontario.

“At present, ReDev Properties does not have any development projects planned in Ontario, but we are always open to proposals or opportunities to build new partnerships,” says Crenian.

Protect your business from fraud: Three simple steps

C

ompanies big and small are vulnerable to all kinds of fraud — identity theft, internal fraud and business directory and supply scams. This is not just an online problem; it can also happen over the phone and in person.

Fraud can affect your revenue, your reputation, and the longevity of your business. That’s why it’s important to take proactive steps to ensure that you can prevent losses to your bottom-line and lessen the impact of possible fraud.

The Competition Bureau encourages businesses to have an anti-fraud plan that includes the following: RECOGNIZE IT: Fraudsters are sophisticated and creative, so questioning the legitimacy of every inquiry — no matter how official it may appear to be — is a good policy to have in place. Always be vigilant and on the lookout. Scammers are finding new and innovative ways every day to rip people off, so be watchful for any deals that sound too good to be true, including online and on social media.

REJECT IT: It’s important to train staff

to be attentive, cautious and know how to reject suspected fraudulent activity. If you receive a suspicious email, delete it. If you question the legitimacy of a phone call from an unfamiliar source, hang up. If you get something in the mail asking you for personal information or credit card details, throw it out. Trust your instincts — they could

Scammers are finding new and innovative ways every day to rip people off, so be watchful for any deals that sound too good to be true, including online and on social media. save your business or your employer from becoming the victim of fraud.

REPORT IT: The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (CAFC) estimates that less than five per cent of the total number of fraud victims report their experiences to law enforcement agencies. By reporting a scam, you can provide law enforcement with the information they need to stop fraudsters and prevent others from becoming victims. If you file a complaint, it’s important to keep any evidence, such as cancelled cheques, certified and other mail receipts, and printed or electronic copies of emails.

You can report fraud by contacting the CAFC at www.antifraudcentre.ca or by phone at 1-888-495-8501; or the Competition Bureau at www.competitionbureau.gc.ca/fraud or by phone at 1-800-348-5358. –NC

GROUND BREAKING CHANGES TO EXISTING B-20 GUIDELINES As a lot of us may know, OSFI, the federal regulator overseeing financial institutions, introduced some ground-breaking changes to the already existing B-20 Guidelines. The revised guidelines, which came into effect January 1, 2018, apply to all federally regulated financial institutions.

The changes reinforce OSFI’s belief in tighter lending standards and vigilant mortgage underwriting practices.

Majority of the focus has been diverted to tightening lending criteria based on Loan to Value ratio limits and restricted qualification methods (*Loan to Value is the percentage of debt registered on a property against the value of the property).

The 3 most critical changes of this new guideline are: 1. Minimum qualifying rate for uninsured mortgages (a mortgage that has 20% or more down payment) to be greater of the five-year benchmark rate (a rate that lenders are required to use to qualify mortgage borrowers in Canada) as published by the Bank of Canada or the contractual rate (rate offered by the lender) + 2%.

2. Establishment and adherence to appropriate Loan to Value ratio limits that reflect the risk and are updated based on changing housing markets and economic environment.

3. Prohibiting federally regulated financial institutions from arranging bundled mortgage products, where a lender arranges with another lender a mortgage, or a combination of mortgage and other lending arrangements, in any form that go over the institution’s maximum LTV ratio or other limits as established by their residential mortgage underwriting policies or requirements published by law.

While all of these changes have had their individual impact on the market, the one change that has impacted the market the greatest, is the change to the existing stress test. What this really means is that borrowers who are looking to put down 20% or more in down payment, will now be subject to a harsher qualification criterion.

Instead of qualifying at the benchmark rate, or the Bank of Canada’s posted rate, they will now have to qualify against the greater of the benchmark rate or their contract rate, plus an additional 2%. Based on the new stress test, the growing concern is that because individuals’ will now have a more challenging time qualifying for a mortgage, they will either be declined, or forced to purchase properties at lower price points. This is not necessarily the case; there are still many options available for borrowers to consider!

In our opinion, this new stress test does not impact the market as vastly as anticipated. In many cases, the majority of first-time home buyers do not have a large down payment of 20% or more and tend to purchase default insurance to get a mortgage. If the mortgage is insured, borrowers will still be eligible to qualify against the older and less restrictive stress test. continued on next page...

GROUND BREAKING CHANGES TO EXISTING B-20 GUIDELINES For those first-time home buyers who have the 20% down payment available and want to put down the maximum they can, they have the option to pay a little less down payment and pay for the default insurance to get qualified against the benchmark.

The one segment of borrowers that the new stress test most greatly affects, are real estate investors or individuals looking to buy secondary homes or investment properties, where the minimum down payment requirement is 20% or more. This is where a mortgage is uninsured due to the higher down payment and lower risk to the lender, and hence to mitigate the risk of not having the mortgage insured, borrowers are subject to a stricter stress test. Having said that, if we put things into perspective, the current day benchmark rate (February 07, 2018) is 5.14%. There are some lenders in the broker channel who are still advertising 5-year rates in the range of 3.19%, and by adding another 2% stress test percentage, we are not too far off from 5.14% (benchmark rate) which does not make a dramatic difference in actual qualification scenarios for a lot of investment property buyers.

It also goes without saying that for some, even a minimal change to the qualifying rate may make the difference between qualifying or not qualifying. It is important to know, that as a mortgage broker, Pro Funds Mortgages does not only deal with the Schedule 1 Banks such as TD Bank, Scotiabank, and Lending institutions like First National etc. We also deal with Credit Unions, Trust Companies, Alternative Lenders, Private Lenders etc., which provide fantastic mortgage products. While the new stress test enforced by OSFI requires the federally regulated financial institutions to abide by these guidelines, provincially regulated lenders are not bound by the new B-20 Guidelines or the tougher stress test. We as a Mortgage Broker have access to these provincial lenders which offer similar products and rates as that of a bank mortgage, however are not bound by the tightened qualification criterion.

We understand the importance of establishing guidelines that are designed to mitigate risk. We respect OSFI’s intention to bring stability to the GTA and surrounding markets, and to the entire economic framework, however with every decision that effects a general pool of borrowers, there may be unintended consequences arising from these changes. As a leading mortgage brokerage in Ontario, Pro Funds Mortgages works creatively with our clients to offer the best available alternatives.

Canadian business owners confident SMEs plan to boost investments to $140.5 billion in 2018

H

igher-than-expected economic growth in 2017 will fuel Canadian business confidence this year, leading to a jump in planned investments by small and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs), says a recently released study from the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC). The findings reveal SMEs plan to make $140.5 billion in investments in 2018, a three per cent increase over 2017, mainly to support their growth.

12G COM

“The findings are very encouraging because SME investment is critical to Canada’s economic health” AN IMPORTANT SHIFT IN INVESTMENTS: MORE ON HUMAN CAPITAL, LESS ON BRICK AND MORTAR

According to the study, the lack of qualified personnel is the leading obstacle to making investments, with chronic labour shortages especially pronounced in rural Quebec and Nova Scotia.

However, spending on R&D and employee training will rise by a total of $2.4 billion this year, reflecting a longterm shift in the way Canadian businesses invest. These investments have increased every year since BDC began conducting its survey on investment intentions in 2015.

Moreover, the findings are supported by Statistics Canada research that shows investment in intangible assets such as intellectual property, R&D or employee training has increased at a faster pace than investment in equipment and building over the last 30 years.

Lack of funds generated by the business and risks associated with investment projects are other leading reasons for not investing.

The BDC study also found: The upswing is due largely to a surge in business acquisition plans, a long-expected trend driven by Canada’s aging population and the retirement of baby boomer entrepreneurs. Business owners expect to spend 79 per cent more on acquiring other businesses in 2018, or $18.9 billion, up from $10.6 billion in 2017.

“The findings are very encouraging because SME investment is critical to Canada’s economic health,” says Pierre Cléroux, vice-president, research and chief economist at BDC. “These businesses make up 99.7 per cent of all Canadian companies. When they invest, they become more productive and competitive and can offer higher wages and benefits.”

By region, British Columbia and the territories (17 per cent planned investment increase), Alberta (up 12 per cent) and Quebec (up 11 per cent) have the brightest investment outlooks, while Ontario businesses expect to trim investments by one per cent in 2018 and other regions anticipate steeper drops.

• Sustaining growth was the top-cited reason for investing in 2018, followed by boosting the value of the business and keeping pace with the competition.

• Among sectors, technology (up eight per cent) and services (up seven per cent) show the highest growth in investment intentions, while manufacturing is flat and a decline is expected in the construction and resources sector (down 14 per cent).

• Nearly half of mid-sized businesses (those with 100 to 499 employees) plan to invest to increase automation in operations, while only a quarter of businesses with less than 100 workers plan to do so.

• Businesses that invest more expect higher sales growth.

Of SMEs that forecast revenue growth of 20 per cent or higher in 2018, 85 per cent plan to invest.

BDC’s third annual study of SME investment intentions is based on a survey conducted in August and September 2017 by the research firm SOM. In total, 4,019 business owners participated.

GTA office leasing market tight in 2017 More availability and favourable rental rates in suburban areas

A

s the second quarter and last half of 2017 ended, the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) office leasing market continued to operate under tight conditions – especially in the downtown and midtown markets, according to an Avison Young second quarter 2017 office market report released last summer.

14G COM

The suburban market continued to offer tenants a variety of space options at favourable rental rates. Owing to another strong performance by the downtown market and ongoing demand for class A product, GTA occupancy increased by 530,000 sq. ft. during the second quarter. New development kept any decrease in the overall availability rate at bay, as it remained unchanged (11 per cent) from the first quarter; however, it is down 40 basis points (bps) from one year earlier. On the other hand, the vacancy rate across all building classes trended lower yet again, falling 10 bps quarter-over-quarter and 60 bps year-over-year to 7.2 per cent – a rate not seen since the fourth quarter of 2011.

Six buildings, comprising 1.2 million sq. ft. (msf), were completed during the quarter, raising the GTA’s office inventory to more than 180 msf. Another 25 office buildings totalling 6.4 msf (46 per cent preleased and equating to 3.6 per cent of existing stock) are confirmed or under construction, with the overwhelming majority (83 per cent) downtown.

The catalyst for the entire region remains Toronto’s downtown market, considered one of the most dynamic leasing markets in North America – displaying historically low vacancy, robust demand, limited large blocks of contiguous available space, rising rental rates and a steady delivery of new supply (about one msf annually since 2009). The second quarter will be remembered for a big development (and lease) announcement: Ivanhoé Cambridge and Hines’ announcement that CIBC has leased up to 1.75 msf as the anchor tenant in the $2-billion, 2.9-msf, two-building complex (branded CIBC Square) at 81 and 141 Bay St. – scheduled for completion in 2020 and 2023, respectively. This came on the heels of the first quarter’s speculative construction announcement from Cadillac Fairview (with the Ontario Pension Board) of its $479-million, 32-storey, 879,000-s.f. office tower at 16 York St., scheduled for completion in June 2020.

Meanwhile, existing or pending backfill space (mostly class A) resulting from tenants relocating to new developments is leasing quickly. Notable new leases included Norton Rose Fulbright (98,000 s.f.) and RBC (78,000 s.f. ) at 222 Bay St. (former EY space), and Amazon (112,000 s.f.) at Scotia Plaza (former BLG space). At the same time, landlords are locking in tenants to avoid losing them to new developments. Noteworthy renewals

included Home Capital (125,000 s.f.), Collins Barrow (63,000 s.f.) and a short-term deal by First National Financial (94,000 s.f.), with rumours of a future relocation to one of the new developments. Downtown’s overall availability rate declined 30 bps quarter-over-quarter to 7.1 per cent – its lowest point in five years – while overall vacancy remained at a historic low of 3.3 per cent.

In midtown, modest gains in occupancy in the St. Clair node were offset by losses, largely in the Eglinton and (to a lesser degree) Bloor nodes. In Eglinton, TD Insurance Meloche Monnex vacated a 77,000-s.f. block at 2161 Yonge St. The building is now offering short-term deals until 2019 – implying that a potential redevelopment may be on the horizon. This block of space and the 180,000-s.f. availability at 121 Bloor St. E. are providing some relief to the tight midtown market. Midtown’s overall availability (6.8 per cent) remained unchanged quarter-over-quarter, while vacancy increased 60 bps to close the quarter at a still-tight 4.1 per cent. In other news, CNIB completed a sale-leaseback transaction for its 72,000-s.f. headquarters at 1929 Bayview Ave., in the Eglinton node.

Following a strong start to 2017, Toronto’s suburban market barely managed to finish in positive territory in the second quarter, as gains in Toronto East (class A) and Toronto West (class B) were offset by losses in Toronto North (class A). Suburban availability increased 20 bps to 15 per cent, while vacancy fell 20 bps to 11.1 per cent.

Noteworthy news included Franklin Templeton renewing 102,000 s.f. (downsizing by one floor) at 5000 Yonge St. in Toronto North’s North Yonge node. In Toronto East, Sony Canada’s premises (145,000 s.f.) at 115 Gordon Baker Rd. are being marketed for lease as the company is close to a deal that would see its offices relocate from Hwy. 404 and Steeles to the Consumers Road node.

In Toronto West, Dream Office REIT’s ongoing dispositions changed the ownership profile in the Airport area and Hwy. 427 Corridor with the sale of more than 1.7 msf office product, including The Airway Centre (to Greater Toronto Airports Authority) and the West Metro Corporate Centre and Commerce West complexes (to Slate Asset Management). Despite double-digit availability and vacancy, almost one million sq. ft. (40 per cent preleased) is underway across the suburbs, largely located in Toronto West and North.

Q&A

with Janine Grossmann Corporate Interiors Leader, Perkins+Will, Toronto

P

erkins+Will workplace interior design expert Janine Grossmann discusses the use of empirical data to build offices that outlast trends COMMERCIAL INVESTOR: Renovating an office workspace can be costly. Why should a business owner or company consider investing in the design of their office space?

16G COM

JANINE GROSSMANN: Workplace design is so much more than a sleek boardroom and nice finishes. Thoughtful interiors can drive business performance; improving productivity, enhancing employee satisfaction and ultimately creating a healthy and happy work environment for employees. Even more, when design can be captured as data, the metrics help to determine the design outcomes that ultimately enhance the performance of a business.

CI: People like to be trendy and to work in a trendy place. Why don’t trends apply to office workspace?

JG: Good designers see offices as more than just a showroom for the latest trends. While ideas like “sitting is the new

We use multiple evaluation methods including employee surveys (pre- and post-occupancy), in-situ analysis, interviews, visioning sessions and all-staff workshops to provide us with thousands of data points to further analyze and measure from.

For Perkins+Will’s new Minneapolis Office, the firm challenged conventional workplace models. The firm’s corporate interiors team set out to do less – less walls, less fixed furniture, less energy use and no assigned seats – offering more opportunity for creativity and collaboration.

smoking” and “hot-desking” may have their merits, we’ve have found that this one-size-fits-all approach to workplace interiors just doesn’t work. Design solutions should be driven by data, not trends, and a one-size-fits-all approach to design shouldn’t override the business.

CI: Isn’t the design of a space driven by some form of data? Could you be more specific about the kind you are referring to?

JG: Prior to having data to back up the reason for a design outcome, we were basing our designs solely on program information and stakeholder interviews. Many times this information contained its own biases and may have also been limited; for example, a project steering committee made up of only executives. We can give our clients concrete data and research that helps them support the decisions they have made. For example, we can provide information that shows: • How spaces are being used and how often they are used • How utilization rates will impact size of real estate over time • How different teams are using their workstations and surroundings differently than intended To measure all of this and more, our Workplace Strategy team has developed an indicator, a benchmarking analytics tool that captures a wide scope of information related to corporate culture, technology tools, health, and wellbeing of employees.

From this we can identify an organization’s unique issues and create a customized design response to address them. Not only does this data-driven approach deliver the best design outcome, it equips us as designers with the hard proof to back up the dollars spent. We can clearly demonstrate the ROI to the client with measurable results.

CI: As designers, how does your company incorporate this data-driven approach into your own offices?

JG: Last year, we put our own firm through the paces. When it came time to renovate our offices in New York, Minneapolis, Chicago and Seattle, we wanted to use this as a platform to push the envelope of workplace design.

Our workplace strategy team issued a Leesman Workplace effectiveness survey to the four offices, which measured how offices support their employees and compares results to a database of over 200,000 global respondents across a range of different industries. Each office used Leesman to obtain data about employee satisfaction pre- and post-occupancy.

From this, we saw not only satisfaction levels increase postoccupancy in the new offices, but we found that because of our new design, employee performance, productivity and overall business successes increased.

CI: You have applied your design principles to a new workplace for Perkins+Will’s Toronto office. What did you discover?

JG: With our Toronto studio’s lease about to expire, we saw this as an opportunity to practice what we preach. To begin the process, our workplace strategy team began surveying employees to ascertain not only where we should move, but how our new space should represent us culturally, should empower and engage our employees, how it should represent our brand to our clients and should provide new ways for our teams to work more efficiently.

This type of extensive data gathering yielded enlightening results. For example, we were not utilizing our space to its full potential. In fact, 40 per cent of the time, our office was unoccupied during peak utilization. Using this metric, we realized that we could decrease the studio’s real estate footprint without comprising output. This, in itself, exemplifies how data gathering can impact not only a business’s footprint but also its bottom line over time.

CI: Can this sort of design benefit any office environment?

JG: Gathering the metrics gives clients a well-rounded perspective of their unique organizational issues and ultimately, how design can help address them. Relying on the hard data allows us to future-proof each individual workspace, creating custom design solutions that outlast the trends of today.
