Small Business confidence takes a dive in July

OntariO After having a lukewarm month of June, Ontario’s small business outlook had a significant downgrade in July, losing 6.1 points off its index to reach 56.3—roughly in line with the national average. Short-term employment plans also weakened, and currently only 15 per cent of owners are looking to hire and 10 per cent are looking to lay off employees. About 47 per cent of respondents say their firms are in good shape, while 10 per cent say their businesses are in bad shape. natiOnally Sizeable declines were also noted in New Brunswick, Quebec and British Columbia. There was some rebound seen in Newfoundland and Labrador and Saskatchewan, but sentiment there remains far below historical norms.

With an index of 73.1, Prince Edward Island has the most optimistic business owners, followed by Quebec, (69.5), Nova Scotia (65.0) and Manitoba (60.1). Sentiment among each of the other provinces is below the national average, ranging from 56.1 in British Columbia to a low of 50.0 in Saskatchewan.

Overall OutlOOk

S

mall business confidence took a steep dive in July, according to the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) Business Barometer index, losing five-and-a-half points to land at 56.8 – its secondweakest monthly performance since the 2015-16 resource price crunch.

The latest results coincide with a fresh round of trade jitters that burst out after the G7 summit. New U.S. tariff action on steel and aluminum, Canada’s retaliatory response on a broad suite of U.S. products and deepening global divisions on trade likely contributed to a souring mood among business owners.

8G

COM

The sector picture also looks like it’s affected by trade concerns. Sentiment in agriculture dropped seven points to 40.3, retail fell almost six points to only 54.2 and there were noticeable declines in wholesale trade, transportation and the information sectors. That said, manufacturing sentiment remains modestly positive, along with many parts of the service sector.

On a scale of 0 to 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.

The other metrics on business performance and expectations are looking more neutral. Forty-four per cent of owners report their businesses being in good shape, versus 13 per cent who report being in bad shape – both estimates are on the better side of normal. Hiring plans have settled back a bit though, with only 17 per cent of owners expecting to add full-time staff compared to 12 per cent who plan to cut back in the next three or four months.

Why pre-construction condos are a great investment

By Andrew la Fleur

T

here are many different ways you can invest and make money in real estate. Most types of real estate investing are very hands-on and require a lot of time and effort. Investing in pre-construction condos, on the other hand, can be highly lucrative with minimal effort. Here are four reasons why I believe that preconstruction condo investing is the best way to invest and make money in real estate.

1. Leverage The number one reason why so many real estate investors look to the pre-construction condo market is the ability to leverage their money over time. With just 15 to 20 per cent of your own money, you can buy 100 per cent of an appreciating asset, and you get to hold that asset for three to four years without making any payments on it. Over the last decade in Toronto, thousands of investors have seen incredible returns by simply buying, waiting, then selling on completion.

2. access to tripLe-a Locations Condo investing allows ordinary investors to get a piece of real estate in otherwise unattainable locations. Owning real estate on Yonge Street, King Street or on the waterfront is made possible for average investors only through the power of condo investing. And with many developers offering flexible deposit structures, you can own in these prime locations for a fraction of what it would cost to buy a commercial property, a house, or a small apartment complex in the same locations.

3. Low maintenance New condos are perfect for the busy professional or self-employed business person because you can own multiple units with little to no month-to-month property management. Many of my clients tell me that they are so busy with their full-time jobs or their businesses, they don’t have time to start a part-time business as a landlord.

Compared to buying a house or a commercial property, new condos offer the lowest maintenance with the highest rentability, which means there’s nothing to fix or maintain

10G COM

and your unit will rent out very quickly, saving you time for what really matters in your life.

4. rentaL demand Since the end of the highrise apartment construction boom of the 1960s, there have been almost no purposebuilt rental buildings in the City of Toronto. Yet our city keeps growing by tens of thousands every year. The need for new rental units is now being filled in part with new condominiums, and tenants always want to live in the latest and greatest buildings. Buying pre-construction guarantees that you will own the newest apartment on the block when the building is complete and condo investors know that renting out a unit in a brand new building has been a very lucrative experience.

WINNING THE GAME Why some businesses succeed and others fail

By Jayson Schwarz

s a lawyer of 35-plus years, I have seen many small businesses ďŹ&#x201A;ourish and many fail. The big question is why some succeed while others fall. Here are just a few comments that may not really be legal in nature, but certainly reďŹ&#x201A;ect my observations. In addition, some businesses succeed despite themselves and later, no one can ďŹ gure out what went wrong. Here are some insights that may prove valuable.

A

4. THE LONE RANGER. John Donne in the early 1600s said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;No man is an island, entire of itself, every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.â&#x20AC;? In other words, you need to recognize that every successful small business succeeds as a result of a team put together by the entrepreneur. If we try to do it alone, what is quickly discovered is not the leaderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strength but his weakness. Many failures come to roost when sales are exploding, market share growing and suddenly it falls apart because the back room is missing. The entrepreneur brilliantly develops his business but loses because of faulty accounting or controls. We all need to recognize our VWUHQJWKV DQG Ă&#x20AC;QG WKH ULJKW SDUWQHU RU VWDÍż WR VXSSOHPHQW our weakness.

1. UNDER-FINANCED. Whether it is a start-up or the purchase of an existing business, most new entrepreneurs spend far too much of their funds on sizzle, not steak.

What does that mean? As an example, too much money is spent on oversupply of inventory, leasehold improvements or other capital investments that leave the business short RI WKH PRQH\ LW QHHGV IRU PDUNHWLQJ RU FDVK Ă RZ XQWLO receivables turn over. Maintaining a cash reserve to carry the business through to success is critical.

5. BAD PARTNERS. Everything is always good when it starts but when it becomes too successful or too tough, it usually breaks down. Trust is huge, so be careful and choose wisely. Make sure you have the relationship in writing. Also, never do a deal where the risk is lopsided. Everyone must be in the same place.

2. LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. Many people get into a business for which they have lack of training or knowledge. They think they can learn on the job. Wrong.

Go intern. Work for a successful company and put in the time until you learn how it should work, what to look out for â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and how to run the business.

3. THE AMAZING IDEA. The one thing I have seen over and over again is a client coming in with the idea that will change the world. He has the next pet rock, hoola hoop, slinky, iPod, etc. There is a huge distance between DQ LGHD DQG IXOĂ&#x20AC;OOPHQW 5HPHPEHU D JUHDW LGHD GRHV QRW make money â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the execution and delivery does. In order to make the idea work, we need to develop a cohesive, coherent and practical business plan in writing. The business plan will allow you to express the detail and direction necessary to make the idea work. By the way, before an idea can be worked on, extensive market research is a critical factor.

6. PENNY WISE AND POUND FOOLISH. Ok, so we FDQ¡W DÍżRUG WR KLUH D ODZ\HU WR LQFRUSRUDWH RU DGYLVH :H pass on an accountant. Hmmm, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get one later. This attitude is deadly. Get your professionals at the beginning to ensure that your business is properly constituted; that your personal liability is not on the table; and that the structure is in place from the beginning to allow for growth and proper process.

Ok, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enough of this sort of thing. I hope this helps to make you think, explore and consider. Good luck, start your business and be successful.

PROTECTING YOUR INVESTMENT

AN CH OR SYSTEMS- M ai n t en an ce an d Wi n d o w C l ean i n g Are they required? YES But When and Where and Who is Responsible?

The requirements are a little tricky to follow from the authorities having jurisdiction. However in this article we have attempted to give the reader some guidance.

There are safety requirements under the Ontario Building Code Act 1992 O.Reg. 350/06 and the Ministry of Labour Regulation for Window Cleaning, R.R.O. 1990, Regulation 859 and the Occupational Health and and Safety Act (OHS) as they apply to window cleaning.

ROOF AND PARAPET ANCHORS ON HIGH RISE APARTMENT

SWING STAGE LIFT

APARTMENT ROOF NO ANCHORS

Ontario Building Code (OBC) The requirements for roof Anchor Systems is clearly set out in the 2006 Ontario Building Code subsection 4.4.4 for new buildings “where maintenance and window cleaning operations are intended to be carried out on the exterior of a building described in Article 1.1.2.2 of Division A, anchor systems shall be provided where any portion of the roof is more than 8m above adjacent ground level.”

The OBC makes reference to CAN/CSA-Z91-M90 “Safety Code for Window Cleaning Operations” which has been superseded by CAN/CSA Standard Z91-02 “Health and Safety Code for Suspended Equipment Operations.”

Ministry of Labour and the Ontario Health and Safety Act (OHSA) Their guidelines are with respect to all buildings new and existing.

They make reference to the following: - OHSA Regulation 859 - CAN/CSA Standard Z91-02 Health and Safety Code for Suspended Equipment Operations” - CAN/CSA Standard Z271-10 “Safety Code for Suspended Platforms - CAN/CSA Standard Z259-10 “Full Body Harness” - CAN/CSA Standard 3-Z11M81 “Ladders” The OHSA, in conjunction with Regulation 859 outlines the legislative and regulator requirements for engineers, building owners, employers, supervisors and workers in the window cleaning industry.

As a building owner you have responsibilities. We recommend that you contact the authority having jurisdiction to ensure that your building complies to all of the mandatory safety requirements.

The requirements are much too detailed to be covered in this article and we recommend that you refer to the following websites for detailed information.

SkyViews Plumbing Preventative Maintenance - Part 1

by Frank Salemi, Municipal Mechanical Services Ltd

A top concern for managers of properties of all sizes is plumbing systems. Whether the building is an office property, high-rise multi-family residential building or a single-story commercial building, plumbing problems are in a class of their own.

As a minimum, property managers need proof of licensure and insurance. If the work requires them to enter the premises of residents or tenants, getting a firm with bonded employees is important.

Water Conservation Makes Cents One leaking toilet can waste as much as 90 gallons of water in 30 days. If you manage a property, this can lead to excessive water bills. When spread over multiple toilets and multiple properties and water bills, running toilets are budget busters. Inspect plumbing fixtures on managed properties and fix leaking toilets and other fixtures that waste water. These repairs are easy and affordable.

One sign of an experienced and efficient owner or property manager is the ability to solve problems fast and properly the first time. The key to this is to have service agreements with companies you can count on and are comfortable dealing with.

Maintain Your Water Heating Systems We all know that a well-maintained car runs longer and better than a car whose owner doesn't give maintenance a second thought. Equally important, preventative maintenance programs cut the number of repairs and their extent.

Tips for Selecting a Plumbing Contractor An experienced owner or property manager never accepts a plumbing bid over the phone. When approached logically, a phone bid is not a good idea. Is a plumber able to quote a price without inspecting a job?

Many new property managers have a rude awakening when the contractor arrives on-site, does the work and presents you with a bill with additional charges. Insist on the contractor coming to your site and making a firm bid based on an inspection.

No Matter What, Metal Parts of Your Plumbing System Will Rust Corrosion happens, as a result of alkaline water, oxygen, salts, sand, sulfates, by-products, rust and sediment from the water heating system. Choose well-equipped plumbing companies with the latest technology such as video scopes to inspect pipes and drains to pinpoint the problem, and its location, then select the best method of repair. Consider different material options that might be more cost effective in the long run like PVC and CPVC.

There are many potential causes of plumbing problems that a phone call cannot analyze. These include tree roots that invade sewer and drain lines, improper installation of original systems and more.

To be continued in the next issue of Commercial Investor... Stay Tuned for more Tips and a Checklist!

Make Sure Your Plumber Has the Right Credentials for the Job As a rule, most provinces require plumbers to license.

If you are a building or property manager, it is likely you are also a quick change artist. The ability to change hats quickly is something an excellent property or facility manager is adept at doing. Commercial property managers negotiate rentals with new tenants and stay aware of code changes for all building systems including plumbing, electrical and HVAC. Knowing about laws and regulations for the local jurisdiction, waste removal and fire safety is a job requirement, too.

Economic Growth to slow in 2018 for some medium-sized cities

A

part from Greater Sudbury and St. Catharinesâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Niagara, Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mediumsized metropolitan areas can expect economic growth to moderate this year, according to The Conference Board of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest Metropolitan Outlook. Still, Oshawa and Guelph are expected to boast the fastest growing economies among the 16 cities covered in the report, with growth of 2.6 per cent and 2.3 per cent, respectively.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;In most Ontario metropolitan areas, economic growth is slowing in line with the national economy. Rising interest UDWHV QHZO\ LPSOHPHQWHG WDULÍżV RQ Canadian exports, and stricter mortgage rules are limiting growth across a number of sectors,â&#x20AC;? says Alan Arcand, associate director, Centre for Municipal Studies, The Conference Board of Canada. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, most Ontario cities covered in this report can expect to see their economies expand by less than two per cent this year.â&#x20AC;?

tougher mortgage rules are also putting a damper on the metro areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previously hot housing market.

After posting a strong gain of 3.0 per cent last year, Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic growth will moderate to 1.9 per cent in 2018. The public sector â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest economic driver â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is forecast to experience cooler growth RYHU WKH QHDU WHUP 7KH VORZGRZQ ZLOO QRW EH FRQĂ&#x20AC;QHG to the public sector, as wholesale and retail trade, construction and manufacturing are also expected to see growth decelerate.

Londonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s real GDP is set to rise 1.9 per cent in 2018, furthering a string of economic gains going back to the end of the 2009 recession. While overall services growth is set to ease this year, two key industries in London â&#x20AC;&#x201C; education and health care â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are set to post solid advances of 2.1 per cent and 3.1 per cent, respectively. At the same time, although retail trade output growth is on track to decelerate sharply, this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s projected gain of 2.3 per cent is consistent with the industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s historical average annual growth.

Demand for office space continues as vacancy rates decline

N

ew approaches from technology companies and coworking providers across North America and Europe are challenging tenantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and landlordsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; office-space accommodation strategies. Players in more established sectors are having to re-think the size, physical form and operational function of their premises. According to Avison Youngâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mid-year 2018 North American and Europe office market report, the transformation continues to encourage new development, which is racing to keep up with demand in some markets and being bolstered by a young, educated workforce gravitating to urban centres.

The Pro Fund’s 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 -) ++&+$Ǿ !2" !&)&$"+ " +! 4%,)" ),1 ,# 4 &1&+$ 4"/" #&+ ))6 - 6&+$ ,ƛǽ +! *" + )&1"/ ))6Ǿ *6 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 )&ƞ&+$ ),+$ 1%" 4 6 +! #"4 +,1Ȓ0,Ȓ%")-#2) ,+1/ 1,/0ȁ 21 1%&+( 1%" *"*,/6 ,# 1 (&+$ chimney down piece-by-piece using a sledge hammer will always stick with me. That was fun.

So how can you structure your very own “zero down flip”?

1. Know your numbers Ȓ "" ),1 ,# -/,-"/1&"0Ǿ #&+! ,21 4% 1 1%"6 /" 0"))&+$ #,/Ǿ ,1% "#,/" +! ƞ"/ 1%" -/,-,0"! /"+,3 1&,+0Ǿ +! 2&)! 6,2/0")# 2ƛ"/ ,# ǗǕʢ ,3"/ +! ,3" 4% 1 6,2 1%&+( &1 4&)) 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.

If you’re thinking about doing a flip of your own or are wondering how you can leverage your existing properties to purchase a property with little or zero down, contact Pro Funds Mortgages at 1-888-330-3866 or info@profunds.ca

Are small-business owners distracted by legal disputes with their customers?

T

hree out of 10 small business owners in Canada in the last few years have dealt with the stress and disruption of handling a legal dispute. In an attempt to resolve these disputes, both parties were required to hire lawyers, paying up to $400 an hour. The top three sources of legal conflict are:

› Collecting money owed by customers › Contract disputes with customers › Contract disputes with suppliers

Here were some of the key findings: › Seventy-three per cent believe a legal dispute would have a tangible financial impact on their business, but only 27 per cent have set aside a budget to protect their business from the potential costs involved with legal disputes › Only 12 per cent of business owners feel they have sufficient insurance coverage to pay for any type of unforeseen legal expenses

› One out of 10 small business owners know another owner who lost their business due to a legal dispute Considering the millions of self-employed and small- and medium-sized business owners there are, that’s a lot of “Our research findings suggest that while business owners unnecessary distraction and time away from running their appreciate the significant impact a legal dispute could have business, especially when a solution is available to both on them, many unfortunately are either not being proactive empower and protect them in case of unforeseen legal disputes. or feel fully protected,” says Barbara Haynes, CEO of DAS Canada. “That’s where legal expense insurance can help. It In order to better understand small business owners’ fills the gap in their insurance portfolio and gives business experiences and attitudes towards legal disputes, in 2016, owners peace of mind, so they can focus on what matters DAS Canada engaged Ipsos to conduct an online panel most – growing their business.” survey of more than 1,000 business owners from across the country.

Technology, transit and transitioning Millennials New opportunities for condo and office development outside the GTA methods and has increased opportunities for people to work remotely, with more flexible schedules. Many Millennials who currently live in the GTA, among others, such some Baby Boomers who may be starting to wind down in their careers, place a higher value on flexible working conditions and their live/work location being in close proximity in order to achieve a better work-life balance.

This has created some shift toward people wanting to live in accessible and walkable urban areas, a factor in the recent condominium boom in the GTA. However, with significant affordability challenges in the GTA, not only for single-family homes but increasingly for condominium apartments, along with tighter mortgage rules, prospective homebuyers are now more motivated to look at other markets outside of the GTA and within the Greater Golden Horseshoe (GGH). Since 2016, there has been increased activity not only in new single-family homes, but also in new condominium apartments in several GGH markets.

W

ith the disruptive effect of changing workforce conditions and as younger, single Millennials transition into young families, opportunities are emerging for some key regions on the periphery of the GTA to draw more investment in the residential and office sectors.

A recent market update by Altus Group released Aug. 7 revealed data indicating the dynamics of today’s workforce are evolving at a rapid rate. The up-tick in technology has resulted in more efficient communication

16G COM

New condominium apartment sales in Waterloo and Hamilton, for example, have gained notable traction as plans for expansions in transit move forward and regional concentrations of economic activity pick up. In the next decade, Metrolinx is expected to spend $43 billion on transit capital expansion across the GTA and the Hamilton area. The vision for Metrolinx is to “link communities across the region,” which may foster higher density development, making these outer GGH areas more viable for families while still being accessible to the GTA. The Kitchener-Waterloo region is one of several within the GGH to undergo transformation, becoming a more affordable market for GTA residents faced with one of the priciest housing markets in Canada. In Q2 2018, Kitchener-Waterloo had lower average asking prices for new condominium apartments as well as a significant increase in new condominium apartment sales, in comparison to many other areas in the GGH. The momentum may at least in part be attributed to the wave of economic growth entering the “Idea Quarter” area. Local companies are now successfully competing for talent against the GTA market, helping to stimulate condominium development activity adjacent to these

technology hubs. The shift is predominantly driven by start-ups and technology companies. Major companies like Shopify Plus are planning to neighbour up with more recent tenants like Stantec, OpenText, Auvik and Magnet Forensics, all residing alongside the Waterloo Tech Campus. There has also been interest in new condominium units being sold as investment properties, specifically to be rented out to young professionals due to their proximity to the hub. Similarly, increased activity and investment in Kitchener’s innovation hub followed when major tenants like Google expanded their presence, leasing 185,000 sq. ft. of office space. At more than 50 per cent sold, the entry of the Charlie West condominium apartment development in downtown Kitchener is a relatively more affordable option (compared to the GTA), with two-bedroom-plus-den units available at around the $500,000 threshold.

Hamilton is expected to become an increasingly attractive place to live for commuters, people who live and work in the city and, in particular, those who are able to take advantage of flexible working arrangements or are seeking an alternative to the GTA’s high condominium apartment prices yet still want to live in a walkable neighbourhood with access to public transit. In Q1 2018, Hamilton witnessed a spike in new condominium apartment sales largely attributed to Television City Phase I, a 30-storey tower released last May that has since reached 80 per cent sold. Television

City Phase II followed in March 2018, with more than 50 per cent of units sold by the end of Q2 2018. More recently, the region appears to be showing signs of a temporary cool down, in part due to the uncertainty of tariffs looming over the region’s steel industry. However, coupled with the attractiveness of Hamilton’s LRT expansion, which is key to revitalizing its downtown core and improving accessibility, growth in Hamilton’s technology sector (albeit in its infancy), may become another pull factor for a younger, skilled talent pool.

Boosted by more flexible working arrangements, a promising technology industry and the pursuit of more affordable housing options, continued growth in interest in new condominium apartments in key GGH regions, such as Hamilton and Kitchener-Waterloo is expected.

Altus Group took a deeper look into Q2 2018 figures to compare what buyers with a budget of $500,000 could afford in the downtown areas of various new condominium apartment markets across the Greater Golden Horseshoe.

In Barrie, Brantford, Cambridge, Guelph, Kitchener and St. Catharines, a buyer could find two- to three-bedroom units of more than 1,000 sq. ft. for under $500,000. In the Toronto market, buyers would have to settle for a onebedroom unit of only 521 sq.ft., or approximately half the space of the other markets.
