Protect your business from directory fraud

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. Below is an example of a popular directory scam.

Your company receives a call, an email, or a fax to confirm its address and contact information. You are extremely busy in your small, growing business, so you confirm the information and move on to the next pressing issue. A few weeks later you receive an invoice for online advertising for several hundred dollars from an unfamiliar company. When you call their customer service you are told they have a recording of you agreeing to the services and if you don’t pay, they will send your file to a collection agency. You don’t have time for this, so you pay the invoice and get back to work. After all, online advertising can’t be bad for your business! This is how it’s done: You’ve been scammed. Chances are your company’s name will get buried in a listing that no one will see, because it’s not even accessible via regular search methods. That’s their definition of advertising. Directory scams are very common; they target businesses across Canada and around the world. Fraudsters use misleading tactics to pressure businesses to pay for directory listings of little or no value. In some cases, they lead businesses to believe that a contract is already in place 18

COMMERCIAL INVESTOR | Commercial Real Estate & Business Opportunities

during the initial communication. They make it look official by already having the company’s contact information on hand when they’ve simply obtained that information online, or through existing directories. These scam artists may also record your voice while you confirm your business information, which can be edited to suit their fraudulent purposes. This type of scam happens quickly, and the financial consequences are harmful to thousands of small businesses in Canada every year. Use these tips to help avoid falling victim to fraudsters: • Educate yourself, your employees and your co-workers to be cautious of unsolicited calls and emails. • Create a list of companies that are typically used by your business. • Limit the number of staff who can approve purchases and pay bills. • Clearly define procedures for verification, payment and management of accounts and invoices. • Examine invoices carefully before making any payments: Fraudsters will use company names or logos similar to those of known businesses to make their invoices seem real. • Ask questions and read all documents very carefully before confirming your business information, whether it’s over the phone or by signing a document, to ensure that you will not be unknowingly charged. If you’ve been the victim of a directory scam or if you have information about this type of scam, report it to the Competition Bureau (1.800.348.5358) or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (1.888.495.8501).

Investment intentions among Canadian entrepreneurs remain stable Over half will limit investment due to lack of qualified workers

nvestment intentions among Canadian entrepreneurs remain stable amid a shortage of qualified labour and confidence in the economy, according to the Business Development Bank of Canada’s (BDC) fourth annual report on the investment intentions of small- and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs). The 2019 Investment Intentions report is based on a phone survey of 4,024 business owners conducted in the fall of 2018. More than half of SMEs (53 per cent) say the labour shortage will cause them to limit business investment in 2019. This is the second year in a row the problem is cited as the top obstacle to investing. In a previous study, BDC found that SMEs are struggling to find new employees and the problem will not improve. Next-cited reasons for not investing are insufficient cash flow (48 per cent) and confidence in Canada’s economy (43 per cent). 26

COMMERCIAL INVESTOR | Commercial Real Estate & Business Opportunities

Business optimism remains stable nationwide, with 73 per cent of SMEs expecting their revenues to grow in 2019, compared to 72 per cent last year. At the same time, SMEs are shifting its investment plans to reflect the digital transformation of Canada’s economy, with four in 10 businesses planning to devote all or some of its investment to new technologies. “It is encouraging to see some optimism from Canadian businesses as they adapt to the labour shortage and digital technology,” says Pierre Cléroux, vice-president, research and chief economist at BDC. “SMEs make up 99.7 per cent of Canadian companies, so their success is crucial to the economy. Companies can better meet today’s challenges if they invest in retaining workers, hiring newcomers to Canada and adopting new technology.” Other findings: • The sectors with the brightest investment outlook are wholesale, technology and business services. • Exporting businesses are more likely to plan new investment in technology, thanks to a low Canadian dollar and strong U.S. demand. • More entrepreneurs plan to invest in intangible assets such as software and intellectual property. High-growth firms are focused on buying new technology, with 59 per cent planning such investments compared to 43 per cent of all businesses.

The Importance of Capital Budgeting by Scott Fleet, Capital Planning Solutions

When embarking upon major capital expenditure projects at your multi-residential and commercial properties, it is imperative to complete proper due diligence and implement a capital plan to assist in prioritizing your capital projects. At Capital Planning Solutions, we recommend customizing five-year capital budgets for each building. This can be done by a project manager, management company or building ownership. It is recommended that these five-year capital budgets be updated annually and reviewed amongst all members of your building ownership group in order to get “all hands-on board” and make informed decisions on whether your upcoming capital projects should be undertaken, or if certain projects can be deferred. Five-year capital budgets and cash flow projections should be reviewed annually by ownership groups in the fall months. At this time, it is imperative that the ownership make a collaborative decision regarding which projects will be completed throughout the upcoming year. The benefit of making this decision in the fall months is two-fold: 1.

When dealing with large concrete restoration projects and other weather sensitive projects, there is a major benefit to tendering and awarding projects early in the year. Contractors are generally very eager to fill up their construction schedules for the rest of the year. Therefore, the contractors who have voids in their schedules are more likely to offer their best competitive pricing to secure the project. The manufacturing of certain equipment and materials such as elevators, balcony railings, balcony doors, windows, boilers, etc. can become backlogged and may have extensive lead times. By commencing your capital projects early in the year, you will often benefit from shorter lead times as you will be first in queue with the manufacturers. If you wait until the summer to begin your capital projects, you are “joining the herd” which leads to longer lead times (in addition to higher contractor pricing) and you may end up rushing to finish weather sensitive projects before the winter months.

The Five-Year Capital Budget There are some great software programs available to assist with the creation of capital budgets. However, creating your own customized five-year capital budget unique to each building can yield great benefits. A capital planning consultant can provide assistance in the creation of a capital plan. The process begins by creating a spreadsheet for each building within your portfolio. Populate the spreadsheet with a list of categories for various building components within your building, i.e. balconies, boilers, windows, asphalt, sidewalks, elevators, etc. The spreadsheet should also contain a heading for the next five years, i.e. 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021. As projects approach, populate the spreadsheet with budget estimates for each category under the appropriate year in which it should be completed.

Populating your Five-Year Capital Budget The main source for populating your customized five-year capital plan for each building should be information extrapolated from your most recent Property Condition Assessment (PCA). As a diligent building owner, it is recommended that you update your PCA approximately every eight years and the report should include recommendations for priority repairs and budget figures for the next 10 years. Listed below are additional ways to identify capital projects to include in your five-year capital budget: •

Legislative changes including building code/fire code/ TSSA requirements

•

Visual assessment and regular building walkthroughs

•

Monitoring equipment age versus expected useful life

•

Identifying projects that provide energy savings/paybacks

Undertaking Capital Projects versus Deferring Capital Projects Now that you have a five-year capital budget in place for each building, you can refer to the budget as a detailed overview of the upcoming capital projects at your buildings. Reviewing your capital budgets in conjunction with your cash flow projections will allow you make a more informed decision regarding whether specific projects should be undertaken or deferred. Should you consider deferring a particular project beyond the set out or recommended repair timeline, it may be a good idea to have an engineer/consultant re-inspect that specific building component to clarify the impact of this decision on building safety and project cost. If projects are deferred too long, you can quickly find yourself taking a reactive approach to building maintenance. This can lead to an increase in the scope of projects/repair costs, growing aggravation amongst tenants, and additional unexpected repair projects. Alternatively, preventative maintenance approaches allow you to control repair quantities, and eliminate a source of aggravation amongst your tenants while completing your capital projects with cost efficiency at the forefront. In conclusion, updating and reviewing your capital budgets annually in the fall months is imperative and taking a preventative, rather than reactive, building maintenance approach can save you valuable dollars over the lifespan of your buildings. For further assistance with capital planning and capital project management, please contact Capital Planning Solutions.

Toronto building awarded BOMA

best platinum certification

ut of all the buildings that apply to receive a BOMA BEST certification, only two to three per cent are able to attain the platinum level. In the span of one year, the team at 95 St. Clair Avenue West has demonstrated its capability and has joined the elite group of buildings that have met BOMA’s best practices with the receipt of a BOMA BEST Platinum certification. When Colliers assumed property management of 95 St. Clair Avenue West, the 50-year-old building had already been embroiled in a 15-year-long attempt to secure a BOMA BEST certification and the client, Desjardins Asset Management Group, had high expectations. By working with the Real Estate Management Services (REMS) sustainability team, it implemented initiatives and tools, such as energy monitoring software, upgraded equipment, the purchase of renewable energy, and much more.

JUST LISTED SALE FOR

After all the initial implementations, it was expected that the building would receive a score of 89 per cent. It was the final introduction of BIP, a platform developed by Peak Power Inc., that served as the ultimate game-changer. The team submitted the technology to BOMA’s Technical Review Committee and received additional innovation points, which allowed them to successfully secure a 92 per cent score and earn them the platinum certification. “This was undoubtedly one of the most collaborative efforts I have ever seen,” says Phillip Raffi, national energy and sustainability manager, when speaking about the teamwork and innovative thinking it took to accomplish such a feat. Stephen Wall, general manager of 95 St. Clair Avenue West agrees. “This was a collective endeavour and there were multiple people who were instrumental throughout the yearlong process in helping us get to the point where we can say that we are BOMA BEST Platinum-certified.” Moving forward, the building will continue to explore new technology and initiatives to cement its position as a leader in sustainability and also reduce energy and greenhouse gas emissions by two to three per cent yearover-year.

2019 commercial real estate forecast:

OppOrtunities abOund Avison Young’s 2019 Real Estate Forecast

et against the backdrop of a rapidly increasing world population, global GDP growth, relatively strong economies and heightened job creation, real estate markets are thriving. Fundamentals continue to show great strength amidst restrained building activity, strong demand and accordant rising rents. Despite political headwinds such as trade disputes, Brexit, currency fluctuations and interest-rate hikes, quality real estate continues to be occupied and in demand. 32

COMMERCIAL INVESTOR | Commercial Real Estate & Business Opportunities

February 2–March 2, 2019

Avison Young’s annual report covers the office, retail, industrial and investment sectors in 68 markets within seven countries, including these cities in Canada: Calgary, Edmonton, Halifax, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Vancouver and Waterloo. “While the last few weeks have certainly been a rollercoaster ride for the world’s equity markets, the headline is: We continue to feel very positive about opportunities in the real estate environment for the year ahead,” says Mark E. Rose, chair and CEO of Avison Young. “At Avison Young, we believe that more capital is available to move into real estate debt and equity than at any other time. The next wave of investment is not a matter of if or when – it’s just a matter of price.” “Understanding demand is the key to navigating the current market. While workplace changes can be confusing – driven by technology, generational trends and the new economy – they largely represent positive developments for our industry,” continues Rose. “As co-working and flexibleoffice providers take down a significant amount of space, what we are seeing is a change in tenancy – not a slowdown in occupancy. Leasing is stable – and longer-term in nature – and most businesses retain their office footprint throughout economic cycles.” An office experience is taking the place of the static workplace of prior generations, states the report. Energy, light, collaboration, purpose, sustainability, and health and wellness are as much drivers of the work experience as the underlying businesses. Industrial is today’s property class of choice and will probably regress to the mean, but will still be a driving force as methods of production and distribution continue to evolve. Distribution to the home and the last mile are top-ofmind among industrial owners and occupiers; accordingly, same-day delivery is the goal of retailers and consumers as the world’s population continues to increase. On the North American front, though trade was discussed ad nauseam, property markets in the U.S., Mexico and Canada performed well in 2018. CANADA The 10-year bull market in the Canadian commercial real estate sector continued in 2018, supported by the lowest unemployment rate in at least four decades. For several months, the lack of an amicable trade deal with the U.S. was a destabilizing factor on many fronts, but the prospective United States-Mexico-Canada (USMCA) agreement removes some of the doubt. Meanwhile, new federal and provincial measures appear to have stabilized the housing market. “Strong performances in 2017 and 2018 have led to supply constraints amid a maturing commercial real estate cycle in Canada,” says Bill Argeropoulos, principal, practice leader, research (Canada) for Avison Young. “Activity is expected to remain stable in 2019 with a general supply constraint being the primary brake on property market growth. February 2–March 2, 2019

Meanwhile, occupiers and owners will have to adjust to rapid technological advances during a period of moderating economic growth.” According to the report, Canada’s office sector remained sound in 2018, though softness persisted in Alberta. Competition for office space, especially in downtown markets, continues to underpin the sector’s fundamentals nationwide. Office vacancy declined in almost every market, lowering the Canadian average to 11 per cent near yearend 2018. A similar story is expected in 2019, although vacancy will rise modestly to 11.3 per cent by year-end after construction nearly doubled in 2018. “Toronto and Vancouver reaffirmed their presence among North America’s top-performing office markets as Canadian markets captured five of the continent’s 10 lowest vacancy rates,” notes Argeropoulos. The report states that low, single-digit vacancy characterized Canada’s industrial markets. Overall industrial vacancy continued to decline, falling to a new record low of 2.9 per cent near the end of 2018 – and is expected to edge lower in 2019. Toronto (1.3 per cent) and Vancouver (1.5 per cent) are projected to rank among the tightest three markets in 2019. “Canada’s industrial market outperformed many observers’ expectations in 2018 – and is set to do so again in 2019,” says Argeropoulos. “Competition from the emerging recreational-cannabis industry will add to the already robust e-commerce demand this year as owners and occupiers continue to grapple with rising land costs and the eroding supply of developable land – most evident in Vancouver and Toronto.” Retail properties remain the most unpredictable commercial real estate assets in Canada. Retail vacancy remains in flux as a lingering result of the failures of some prominent chains, while big-box chains closed underperforming locations amid the ongoing e-commerce revolution. “The focus on creating memorable consumer experiences will endure across the Canadian retail landscape in 2019. Significant investment in technology to track Millennial behaviour is being made by retailers developing and enhancing their physical locations and online market shares while seeking the correct balance in the symbiotic relationship between bricks and clicks,” says Argeropoulos. With the final tally yet to come, 2018 was another record year of investment, exceeding the previous high of $36 billion in 2017. Capital is abundant and, in search of higher yields, investors are looking to take advantage of landlordfavouring markets and sectors offering significant rentalrate growth. “Supported by relatively sound leasing fundamentals in almost every market, debt reduction and asset and geographic diversification will continue in 2019, while asset values are expected to remain elevated and cap rates low for prime assets,” says Argeropoulos.

Federal government to help fund

first residential net-zero energy highrise building

he federal government will invest $3.9 million toward the construction of a mixed-use, multi-unit residential highrise net-zero energy building. The country’s first net-zero energy highrise will be located in London, Ontario’s West 5 sustainable community. “This project will demonstrate first-of-its-kind net-zero energy construction in highrise residential buildings, making it a model for the future,” says Minister of Natural Resources, the Honourable Amarjeet Sohi. “Through energy-efficient practices and the use of renewable energy technologies, this project is creating new jobs and protecting our environment.” The building aims to demonstrate the feasibility of netzero energy at a community level, and inspire change across

Canada’s construction industry, as part of the government’s commitment to use renewable energy technologies to advance a clean energy future and help achieve its global climate change goals. Net-zero buildings are designed and constructed to produce at least as much energy as they consume on an annual basis. Funded through Natural Resources Canada’s Energy Innovation Program, Sifton Properties Limited’s Helio building will include a monitoring system that will be used to optimize energy-efficient performance, a system that could become a valuable industry resource going forward. “Helio will be the most energy-efficient highrise in Canada, designed and constructed to be 77 per cent more efficient than a similar building built under the current Ontario Building Code,” says Richard Sifton, president of Sifton Properties. “This is quite an accomplishment, and there is no doubt that the Energy Innovation Program has enabled us to push Helio further than thought possible. It will be an incredible addition to West 5.”

Should you buy or leaSe your commercial Space?

ne of the trickier decisions many entrepreneurs face is choosing between buying or leasing their place of business. There are advantages and disadvantages to both options, and the decision requires lots of analysis and planning. Here are some things to consider with each option. Weigh them effectively to help make the best decision for the best business advantage. When should you buy?

If location is important to you A great location is hard to find. If you can find one that helps you grow sales through foot traffic and ease of transportation, reduces costs through proximity to key 36

suppliers, and/or attracts and retains employees, you may want to secure that space by purchasing it. If you want to build your personal wealth Commercial real estate has been a great investment for many entrepreneurs in recent years. While there are no guarantees, owning can build wealth separate from your operating company. If your current leasehold improvements are getting costly If you’re investing heavily in a building to run your business, it often makes sense to buy a property. If, however, the time isn’t yet right to buy, you may want to consider leasehold improvement loans to tide you over. If you want to be free of landlord woes If running every aspect of your business without potential limits, restrictions and rent increases is important to you, February 2–March 2, 2019

then you might want to buy a commercial space. If you need to free up working capital A well-financed property purchase can free up working capital by reducing your monthly outlay for rent. The difference can be used to build your business. “It’s about balancing growth with cash flow,” says Jean-Philippe Ménard, vice-president, North Shore at BDC. “We often finance those kinds of purchases because we want to make sure our clients will have enough working capital to grow.” hoWever... If you decide to buy commercial real estate, be sure to pay close attention to the following: Rising interest rates Low interest rates have encouraged many entrepreneurs to buy in recent years, and they have enjoyed considerable market appreciation. However, “there’s a wake-up call coming” for some entrepreneurs in the form of rising interest rates, says Ménard, who works in BDC’s office in Laval, Quebec. He notes that many younger businesspeople have never experienced the rising costs that come with higher rates. Cash flow and stability Before you buy, make sure your company will have the resources to support this commitment in the years to come. Buying a building is a long-term investment. Protection and due diligence Be sure to protect yourself from problems that can come with ownership, such as hidden building defects or environmental contamination. Get a building condition inspection (BCA) and an environmental assessment (ESA), or hire a qualified environmental consulting firm to assess the property before you purchase. Before buying, it’s equally important to get a lawyer to perform thorough due diligence on such issues as land title, zoning, outstanding taxes, liens, easements and other potential problems with the property. When should you lease? Here’s where it may make more sense to rent a space for your business. If you don’t have enough working capital Start-ups are often unable to commit a lot of capital to a building, so they will most likely opt to lease. Even if you have an established business, it may not be generating enough cash at this stage to allow you to fund both your growth and your commercial property acquisition. If your business needs are unstable If your company is growing rapidly or downsizing, or you’re just not sure what’s going to happen, you might be better off renting until the situation stabilizes. February 2–March 2, 2019

You don’t want the hassle of owning Owning a property comes with additional responsibility and potential problems. You may prefer to rent and focus on your business for the time being. hoWever... If you decide to lease, be sure to pay close attention to the following: Option to renew While some entrepreneurs may not want to make a longterm commitment to a location, Ménard cautions that flexibility can work both ways. A landlord can refuse to renew a lease once it expires. That forces your business to relocate, with all the costs associated with doing so. Renovations and improvements Be sure to find out about restrictions that could limit your ability to expand or use the space in different ways. Specifically, find out whether there are any limitations on making changes to your space. Do you have to return the property to its original condition when you leave? Do added equipment and fixtures remain your property, or do they become the property of the owner? Parking Are there enough parking spaces for all tenants and their visitors? Are you guaranteed spaces? Signage What are your rights when it comes to signage? Landlord responsibilities It’s important to understand what your landlord does and doesn’t pay for before committing to a commercial lease. Specifically, pay close attention to the following: Common area maintenance Who is responsible for cleaning, repairs and other costs associated with common areas, such as washrooms, entrances, general reception areas and the parking lot? Who pays for snow removal, grass cutting and/or landscaping? Operating expenses Who pays for property taxes, insurance, utilities, security, and the repair or replacement of equipment such as heating, ventilation and air conditioning units? Final thoughts In the end, whether you decide to buy or lease a commercial space, remember the following: You’re not alone As part of your trusted team of commercial real estate advisors, a lawyer specializing in commercial real estate should review your contract carefully with you to avoid any unpleasant surprises down the line.

Colliers national 2019 retail market outlook More storm clouds than blue skies on the horizon for Canadian retailers.

he Canadian dollar has been between $0.70 US and $0.80 US fairly consistently since early 2015. The stability of this benchmark is good for both consumers and business, but as with so many things in economics, it is a double-edged sword. A stronger dollar would encourage shoppers to travel more and make shopping trips south of the border; but a weaker dollar makes goods produced abroad cheaper for retailers to purchase. Comparatively, over the last decade, the loonie is currently weak and dropping. 40

February 2â€“March 2, 2019

Inflation is generally responsible for about two per cent of the increase in national retail sales volumes on a year-to-year basis, and the Bank of Canada adjusts its monetary policy attempting to hit that target. While the basket of goods that is used to calculate inflation includes food like fruits and vegetables, which are forecast by some to increase in price dramatically over the next year, the basket also includes food proteins and fuel for vehicles, which are both dropping in price. If inflation in 2019 appears to be tracking well below the two per cent target, the central bank may choose to lower rates, which would stimulate the retail sector. The continued growth of Black Friday as a marquee sales event in Canada should come as a surprise to no one. The surprise is perhaps how enthusiastically Canadian businesses have jumped on board – both retailers and non-retailers. Many companies are taking advantage of Black Friday deals to lock in capital expenses on big ticket items before the end of the calendar year and away from the holidays, and the frenzy around Boxing Day. The more we spend on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, the less we tend to spend on Boxing February 2–March 2, 2019

Day, “Boxing week”, and into January. The luxury retail market, which many have credited with propping up urban retail for the last decade, could be in for a tough 2019. The stock market’s historic rally is giving way to a very volatile, downward trending market, which could take the lustre off luxury retail. Online sales continue to grow, primarily at the expense of spending at Canadian shopping malls and department stores. Online behemoths like Amazon will claim a larger portion of Canadians’ wallets this year. While independent retail is still strong in many Canadian centres, secondary markets and the suburbs are where online retail has gained the strongest foothold. The one thing that is clear is that Canada is comprised of regional economies, and regions that are able to attract population growth irrespective of industrial or economic expansion will continue to see retail sales growth over and above inflation. If Canadians experience stagnant real incomes in 2019, 1.5 per cent inflation and the population grows by an expected 0.7 per cent, retail sales will top $622 billion next year, but year-over-year growth will be anemic, at only 2.2 per cent.
