PROTECTING YOUR INVESTMENT
S I M P L E “ G R EEN / EN ER G Y” AU D I T S f o r BU I L D I N G OWN E RS PART ONE - EXTERIOR The Inspection - Simple. Look for ENERGY BANDITS.....the big energy consumers that cost you valuable energy to money.
Typical Small Building Common Sense Basics Yo u d o n o t n e e d f a n c y equipment or extensive engineering knowledge to conduct your own basic green/ energy audit. Save your money. Expectations Simple...Keep the cold air out, warm air in, reduce energy costs and improve living conditions for the occupants. Background Information Identifying the age of the building will give you some indication of the insulation in the exterior walls and ceilings. Certificates for past government CHIP insulation grants for upgrades. Heating and hydro bills over the past several years. Basic Tools Tape measure, digital infra-red thermometer gun,camera, incense (or smoke pencil), knife, note book, roofing tar. Total cost of equipment $300. Building Plans Building plans will provide you with information on the original construction including insulation.
1. Flat Roof Energy Bandits - No insulation or minimal - Wet insulation CUT TEST - The best way to determine the insulation in a flat built-up roof is to perform a cut test. This should be done by a professional roofer. However, if you feel confident use a knife to cut a 3”x3” cut test hole through the roof covering and subsurface material to determine the insulation. Replace the test cut and seal with roofing tar cement.
Flat roof - 3”x3” test cut
Old
New 3. Doors Energy bandits - Single ply wood doors - Single glazing in doors - Poor weatherstripping Consider replacing older doors with new energy efficient insulated metal doors with thermopane glazing window inserts.
2. Windows Energy bandits - Single glazed windows - Old wood sash windows - Cracked or missing caulking Consideration should be given to upgrading older windows with newer thermopane windows. Replace caulking.
Old wood doors and single glazed windows Next Issue, Part Two - Interior

HST ISSUES Dino Nicosia, Broker of Record, Investpro Realty and Appraisal Ltd., Brokerage
The HST rules dealing with real estate are complex. A critical aspect of any agreement of purchase and sale is whether HST is “included in” or “in addition to” the purchase price. Hamilton
Some real estate sales are completely exempt from HST. A used residential house, multi-residential complexes or land sold by an individual are examples of sales that are usually HST exempt. There are exceptions however. If the transaction if fully, or partly in the case of a mixed use property, subject to HST, there is a provision that allows purchasers who are registered for HST to purchase real estate without paying HST to the vendor. This is not an exemption from HST, but rather a provision which allows a person registered for HST to self-assess the HST rather than having the vendor collect and remit the HST. If a vendor sells real estate to a person who is registered for HST, the vendor wrongly assumes the sale is HST exempt, and the agreement provides that the purchase price is HST inclusive, the vendor has effectively sold the property for approximately 13% less. For example, if an HST registered purchaser purchases a property for $100,000 HST inclusive, and the property is not exempt from HST, the purchaser will be able to insist that the amount of HST included in the price of $100,000 need not be paid to the vendor on closing. This results in a discount to the purchaser which would not have been intended by the vendor. A vendor can avoid this issue by simply providing in the agreement that the HST is in addition to the purchase price. If the property is mixed use, by that part of the property is subject to HST (being the commercial component) and part of the property is not subject to HST (being the residential component), the purchase price should be allocated between the HST exempt and HST eligible components. It is best if this allocation is agreed upon in the offer so that the purchaser and vendor are submitting the same figures to the applicable taxing authorities.

Financing Multi-Unit residential (over 4 units) and Mixed Use properties The financing requirement for Multi-Unit Residential and Mixed Use properties are very different from what the average consumer is accustomed to in dealing with residential mortgages. The main differences are as follows:
Hamilton
- Down payment requirements generally start at a minimum of 25% down with lenders often requiring up to 35% down. - Interest rates offered by lenders start at 1% - 2% higher than best discounted residential rates and rise from there depending on the property, location and strength of applicant(s). - An appraisal of the property is always required by the lender. The cost of a Commercial appraisal ranges between $2,000 and $3,000 for most properties up to 20 units. - Some lenders require a Phase One Environment while others do not. - Overall credit rating and net worth of the applicant(s) is still assessed however less importance is placed on personal debt servicing ratios. - Lenders heavily assess and rely on the debt servicing of the actual property. - Lenders are much more selective when it comes to location of the property. Most lenders dealing in Commercial type mortgages have specific lending areas where they are much more aggressive. With Commercial mortgages, the best lender for a specific property is very dependent of where the property is located and as such using a local Mortgage Broker or local lender is generally of great advantage to the borrower. - There is generally an administration / set up fee payable to the lender with a non-refundable deposit often required by the lender upon acceptance of a commitment. The fee is generally returned if an issue arises due to the appraisal or inspection of the property. - The lender’s legal fee is generally payable by the borrower. The legal fee is not much different from that of a residential property. Financing these types of properties is extremely different from residential. It is very important to surround yourself with experts in these types of properties, be it a Real Estate Agent, Mortgage Professional, Insurance Agent or Lawyer. This will save you a considerable amount of time and money and ensure that you are fully prepared with the knowledge and resources to make this investment as stress free and prosperous as possible.

North American economy to pick up modestly in 2013: BMO Economics
T
he North American economy should grow two per cent this year and improve through 2013, with a strong performance
from commercial construction in Canada and residential building in the US, according to the North American Outlook released by BMO Economics. According to the report, Canada’s economy is on track to grow two per cent this year and should improve modestly through 2013 – reaching 2.4 per cent by the end of the year.“On the positive side, business investment, though moderating, continues to lead the expansion,� says Sal Guatieri, senior economist, BMO Capital Markets. “Commercial construction is supported by low vacancy rates, and companies are taking advantage of the strong loonie to buy productivityenhancing equipment.� Other factors include: t &MFWBUFE DPNNPEJUZ QSJDFT XJMM continue to drive investment in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland & Labrador.
encourage businesses to take advantage of the additional $10 billion in credit available from BMO.� Guatieri notes that recent mortgage and credit rule changes will restrain household debt growth, leading to a further moderation in consumer’s pending and housing market activity and stabilizing home prices in most regions. The notable exceptions will be British Columbia and Toronto, where high valuations point to weaker prices ahead.
The outlook for interest rates indicates that modest growth, low inflation, a strong currency, and tighter credit rules add extra incentive for the Bank of Canada to maintain the current low-rate policy

The outlook for interest rates indicates that modest growth, low inflation, a strong currency, and tighter credit rules add extra incentive for the Bank of Canada to maintain the current low-rate policy.“Further Fed easing should encourage the Bank of Canada to hold overnight rates steady at one per cent for somewhat longer than we previously thought, likely until autumn 2013,� says Guatieri.

The Canadian dollar is expected to trade close to parity against the greenback in the year ahead, benefiting from elevated commodity prices and steady capital inflows.“For those businesses looking to upgrade their processes, technology and equipment to boost their productivity, the high value of the Canadian dollar can provide them with additional purchasing power when importing this equipment and purchasing supplies and JOWFOUPSZ GSPN UIF HMPCBM NBSLFU w TBZT $BUIZ 1JO WJDF QSFTJEFOU #.0 $PNNFSDJBM #BOLJOH i8F

It’s Time to Build New Apartments in the GTA Last year at this time, we released the ROCK Apartment Report, which examined the state of the purpose-built rental apartment industry in Ontario. We ranked over thirty communities based on the state of their local market, the age of their stock, and opportunities for future development. The cities north of Toronto – particularly Markham and Vaughan – ranked the highest as offering the best opportunities for investors in the province. Markham and Vaughan topped our list in large part because the size of their current stock is so small. Increasing demand has pushed vacancy rates in southern York Region to provincial lows, and rents are well above the provincial average and rising. Any new apartment building that opens its door today will come in at the top of the marketplace.
Hamilton
Southwestern Ontario has led the nation in new units built since 2000. The City of London, with a population of 500,000, has built more units than the whole of the Greater Toronto Area combined. Vacancy rates and average rents have remained healthy in London in spite of the increased capacity, which shows what a development industry committed to new apartments can do. Since we publicized these conclusions, the media has begun to write about the shortage of apartment properties in Vaughan and Markham. The Toronto Star wrote a major article on the front page of their business section. The Vaughan Citizen publicized the debate. Vaughan council was warned to make rental units a part of a healthy housing mix. Vaughan may be a great place to live if you are a well-off family able to afford a half-million dollar home, but it’s not so great for young urban professionals who can’t make that down payment. If these people can’t live in Vaughan, at best they’ll commute there, keeping much of their shopping and entertainment dollars as well as their property tax dollars out of town. While the rewards for new apartment construction are obvious, especially in sparsely served territories like Vaughan and Markham, investors need to enter into the marketplace with their eyes open. Making the best return on your investment isn’t a matter of simply developing a plot of land and hoping for the best. Feasibility studies to help you know what to build and where will give you a strong backing when it comes to convincing city officials that your vision for a property in their city is the best for all concerned. So, on Thursday, September 27, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. EDT, I will be hosting a FREE online seminar on the topic of New Apartment Construction and Intensification. My special guest for this, the fourth episode of the ROCK Apartment Transaction Webinar, will be Mark Humphreys of Humphreys & Partners Architects, LP. Humphreys’ firm has built awardwinning new apartments throughout the United States this past decade, growing their business while other real estate sectors compressed through the 2008 recession. Intensification does not mean large towers in the park. Humphreys’ designs have made for strong urban enclaves in suburban areas, something that city planners in many suburban municipalities in the Greater Toronto Area are trying to emulate. Mark will also discuss the secrets that have made his developments successful. In addition, we will be talking about all the significant transactions that have taken place in the purpose built rental apartment industry in Ontario. For more information about the free online webinar, or to sign up, click over to http://rockaptadvisors.ca/webinarseptember.html, and join us on Thursday, September 27 at 11 a.m. EDT as we take on the subject of new apartment construction and intensification. Mark Humphreys will also be a guest at our Student Housing Symposium, which we’re holding in Burlington, Ontario on Thursday, October 18. Experts in managing, developing and financing student housing will be imparting their knowledge and attendees will board buses for Buffalo, New York, to see some cutting edge student housing developments.

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

Unprecedented demand and record prices continue to characterize the market for Canadian farmland in 2012
S
oaring commodity values and limited supply continue to push Canadian farmland values to new heights, with price per acre now commanding top dollar in most markets across the country, says RE/MAX.
The RE/MAX Market Trends Report, Farm Edition 2012, highlighting trends and developments in 16 markets throughout Canada, found that prices have increased almost across the board this year with only the Annapolis Valley, parts of Windsor/ Essex, and the Fraser Valley reporting levels on par with 2011. Tight inventory has been an issue in all markets, restricting year-over-year sales activity to a large extent. While low interest rates, high commodity prices, and nutrient/supply management requirements have been the primary factors fueling the trend toward expansion, increased advancement in farm equipment has also been behind the push for additional acreage. The global desire to ‘bury money in the ground’ is not without merit. Investment funds are taking a hard look at farmland as a result, with well-known asset managers calling farm returns among the best investments out there. And while this endorsement has attracted a growing number of investors to the Canadian market, it has also provided little incentive for farmers to sell productive farmland. In fact, the reverse is true, with many looking to further amass parcels of land and expand existing operations. Percentage increases in land values – in some cases, close to doubling year over year – have not gone unnoticed. Price per acre this year ranges from as low as $800 in Saskatchewan and Southern Alberta, to a high of $40,000 to $60,000 in the Fraser Valley, with Bruce/Grey/Huron, Kitchener-Waterloo, Woodstock/Stratford, and London-St. Thomas chalking up some impressive gains over last year’s figures. Some markets have experienced multiple offers on farmland. Even south of the border, where overall real estate prices have plummeted over the past five years, farm values have steadily increased. Farmers have yet to be deterred from expanding their operations, despite rising values and tight supply. Pent-up demand has been building, with
some farmers making their move after years of sitting on the fence, waiting for prices to correct. Most now believe that there is room for further growth, given the upward momentum of commodity values. Poor crop yields elsewhere have also served to accelerate demand for Canadian farmland. Weather has been instrumental, playing a substantial role in driving wheat, corn, barley and other crop prices higher this year – given extreme cold in some areas of Europe and hot and dry conditions in South America and parts of the southern United States. Lending institutions, particularly those servicing the farming industry, are tuned into growing global demand, so cash-crop farmers have had little issue with financing, especially given today’s low interest rate environment. In some instances, banks are vying for business. Financing is decidedly tighter for supply-managed operations, particularly beef and hog. The RE/MAX Market Trends Report, Farm Edition 2012 noted that population growth – forecast to outpace increases in food production in years to come – would contribute to higher prices moving forward. Ongoing urban sprawl is also expected to drive price momentum, with workable farmland often worth only a fraction of the same land’s development value. Weather, war, and other natural disasters will also hamper existing production, making farmland an increasingly prized asset. Highlights t $BTI DSPQ MBOE SFNBJOT NPTU TPVHIU BGUFS CVU B HPPE NBSLFU FYJTUT GPS poultry and dairy. In some markets, beef and hog operations have been impacted by the high cost of feed and market prices, which has eased demand somewhat. t -PDBMT BSF ESJWJOH UIF CVML PG TBMFT BDSPTT UIF DPVOUSZ t *OWFTUPST BDDPVOU GPS B TNBMM QFSDFOUBHF PG GBSNMBOE CVZFST CVU BSF B growing presence in the market, from small, individual investors to wealthy business people and large corporate/commercial investors.

Tips to help your business navigate online marketing When it comes to online marketing and advertising, it can often seem like an alphabet soup of acronyms and options for the small business owner, from SEO and SEM, to Facebook and Twitter. With so many online marketing tools and terminology, knowing what will work best at a local level can seem like an overwhelming challenge.
Find the right mix of tools There is no silver bullet when it comes to advertising, specialists say, but there is a simple question that provides a good starting point for determining the right mix of tools: Are you in the ‘need it now’ business or in the ‘researched purchase’ business? The impact of local search is far greater in the ‘need it now’ categories such as plumbing, than it is in the ‘researched purchase’ categories such as consumer electronics or luxury travel. Get rank in Google, Yahoo and others The reality is that when people use search engines they generally don’t look past the top 10 results. Search engine optimization (SEO)—or enhancing a business’ online presence so that it’s listed as a top search result on websites like Google, Yahoo or Bing – can dramatically increase online visibility. Although having a website is advantageous for small businesses, it’s not absolutely necessary for SEO. Claiming and updating your free business listing on a local
Canadian search site like canpages.ca or yellowpages.ca is quick and easy to do. These sites allow businesses to enhance their profiles with video, website, photos and more, all of which contribute to higher rankings in Google and other search engines. Generate leads Search engine marketing or SEM is similar to SEO in that it leverages keywords, but differs in that it incorporates a paid element. Local search providers are a good choice for small business owners because they provide personalized support for navigating SEO and SEM and offer leadgeneration solutions designed specifically for local marketing. They even take care of identifying and purchasing adwords – the key words consumers use to search for a business product or service that lead to click-through traffic on business’ websites. NC

The “Street Smart Real Estate Appraiser” –
Long Term Cash Flow M
y last article focused on a real estate appraiser’s techniques, in which, the appraiser determined the potential buyers of the specific property being evaluated. I myself have used this technique time and time again to solidify my final estimate of market value. Again, I have found there is always someone that understands a property better than I do! Who are these other real estate pros? What do they think? What do they see? Why should I find them? What’s important to them? Why do they buy? Experts in the real estate industry offer an invaluable contribution to the valuation of a property. It’s best to talk to these people, understand what they think, know and see, and ultimately get their “technique”. The mission - become a “STREET SMART APPRAISER”!! A real estate appraiser’s valuation technique I’ll give you is “Long-Term Cash Flow”! Tom Siklos emphasized this appraisal “technique”. Tom is the Vice-President of Algoma Central Properties Inc. Algoma Central Corporation owns Canada’s largest domestic fleet of vessels operating on the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Waterway. The Real Estate segment of the Corporation includes investment properties located the cities of Sault Ste. Marie, St. Catharines, and Waterloo. Tom regularly receives investment opportunities for the real estate division of Algoma. One of the main criteria considered by his group is a long-term view of the cash flow, typically based on a 20 year analysis. Very few appraisers do this type of analysis when appraising a small to mid-size investment property. Basically, this can be a simple approach that could be applied to a single-family house purchased for investment; however, for most of the properties that Tom reviews this model becomes considerably more complex. The basic steps of Long-Term Cash Flow analysis for a simple residential property investment are as follows: Step #1 – Estimate Annual Revenue for next 20 years – forecast rent increase and/or rent decrease, probability of renewal, quality of tenant… is it improving or declining? Step #2 – Estimate Vacancy Allowance and Bad Debts – it is unlikely that any investment property would have 100% full occupancy over a 20-year period – normal market vacancy factors are estimated by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). Also estimate the typical rental period required to find a new tenant. Step #3 – Estimate Normal Operating Expense for next 20 years – forecast nominal increases of expenses the landlord is responsible for (property tax, insurance, property management fees, etc.) and estimate some general expenses not typical from year to year (leasing fees, repairs, legal, etc.), and carrying cost, if vacant. Step #4 – Estimate Reserves for Capital Expenses for next 20 years – estimate remaining life of items like roof surfaces, furnaces, cabinets, any other major repairs that could be a direct result of general wear and tear. Often, this combined estimate can be broken down into an annual reserve allowance account. Now calculate the estimated Annual Net Income for the next 20 years.
Niagara Peninsula
Step #5 – Estimate Potential Market Value of Property in 20 years – this is a hard one… and many investors simply place a nominal inflationary increase. While some investors estimate no increase or in some cases a lower value. I’m sure several investors in the United States have applied the latter in the last few years. Now, use the net income and divide it by the original purchase price to calculate the percentage yearly cash on cash return based on no mortgage. Obviously, this is an over simplified presentation of a long-term cash flow model, which does not take into account mortgage financing that includes an Internal Rate of Return (IRR), however, its premise from a valuation point of view helps keep your eyes on the fundamental of real estate – CASH FLOW. Often, this check will tell you when to sit on the sidelines of an over heated marketplace, particularly when you might be leveraging an asset purchase.

It’s now official: Canada’s Small Business Saturday coming to Ontario
O
ntario small businesses are counting down the days until October 20th, the date set for Canada’s Small Business Saturday. It’s a new campaign from the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) sponsored by Interac that aims to encourage consumers to shop at local, independent businesses and help entrepreneurs promote their businesses online.
“All across Canada, small business owners tell me they’re looking for new ways to reach out to customers – particularly online – to promote the importance of shopping at local small firms, instead of a big box, giant online or cross-border business” said CFIB president Dan Kelly.“After all, if we all shop small, we can make a big difference.” Business owners and consumers are encouraged to register on-line at www.shopsmallbiz.ca. The process is fast, easy and completely free. Businesses will be encouraged to offer a special promotion or discount on Small Business
Saturday in order to attract new customers. Consumers will benefit by learning of unique offerings and great deals right in their own backyard or from small online businesses. “We’re pleased to be the sponsor for Canada’s first Small Business Saturday,” said Mark O’Connell, President and CEO, Interac Association and Acxsys Corporation.“Small businesses are the backbone of Canada’s economy, and we’re happy to provide merchants with convenient and economical payment options like Interac Debit that help keep their costs down and their customers happy.” “One Ontario small business owner who is already getting ready to hit the ground running is Steven Mastoras, the owner of Whistler’s Grille and The McNeil Room, a full-service restaurant that has been in Toronto for 31 years,” said Satinder Chera, CFIB’s Ontario vice president.“Another is Vishal Ramsuchit, the owner of Trapper’s Restaurant in Toronto. Vishal and Steve know that October 20th is going to be the start of something big for hardworking entrepreneurs here in Ontario.”
As Canada’s largest association of small- and medium-sized businesses, CFIB is Powered by Entrepreneurs. Established in 1971, CFIB takes direction from more than 109,000 members in every sector nationwide, giving independent business a strong and influential voice at all levels of government and helping to grow the economy.

Mortgages
PRIVATE LENDING IS NOT JUST FOR RICH PEOPLE... IT WILL MAKE YOU RICH! For many years, we have been assisting people to make their money really work for them in mortgage lending. Most of the big, RICH, private lenders out there started out as just average people, that took the leap into mortgage lending regardless of what friends and family thoughts were. Many are stricken with fear of losing their money when contemplating this investment vehicle. Before dismissing this investment direction, consider the following points. Private lending can be very financially rewarding. Private lending is certainly not like putting funds into a guaranteed account with a guaranteed rate and a modest return. Yes, there is a bit more involved. The mortgage brokerage you work with is key. The typical brokerage will have a range of mortgage offerings that will include offerings that cater to individuals that are in a dire position. They may be losing their property and/or their mortgage is in arrears, their credit is challenged and they need to consolidate. The banks will not lend under such circumstances as the risk is too high. These are the type of deals I would not lend on, but are the basis of the high yielding returns. Lending criteria has changed so drastically in the past few years. Banks have really tightened up their lending rules, specifically when it comes to income properties. This is when a private lender can come into play and really leverage on this opportunity to make anywhere from 8-20% annual return. These clients generally have clean credit, good income and other assets. This would make for a safer investment. Lending your Self Directed RRSPs: You can utilize your RRSPs in this type of investment. Most folks are seeing very slim returns in their plans, unless you are in the industry of watching markets, you typically will not experience anything positive. The Self Directed route is really not too difficult in terms of process. The broker should handle the entre process from providing you the lender with the complete details of the investment so you can make an informed decision. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Check List: Credit bureau, credit application, appraisal or an evaluation, income and a scenario of why these borrowers are seeking funds. Note: Not all RRSP plan holders will allow for you to self direct your funds into mortgages. Please confirm with your plan holder as to their protocol on mortgage lending. I am aware of plans that do so and have worked with them for several years, some are much less work and make it easier and less costly for you the lender. You can also make equity in your home really work for you as the current rates are insanely low, borrow at a variable rate of 2.102.50% and lend at 9-20%, great profit. This is a great venue for people that are sitting on equity. For example, for a senior that has reduced income, this can bring you additional funds monthly and give you the peace of mind you are looking for. Scenario â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Borrow a mortgage for 100K your monthly payment @ 2.25% interest and a 25 year amortization would be $436. Lend 100k at 14% interest at an interest only monthly payment of $1,167. Your profit is a super $731 per month. In addition, you are paying down your mortgage with this borrowerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interest payments. As a bonus, you are also paying down principal of $3,018 in the first year (this will increase over time). So, you can service your debt, pay-down your principal loan and earn extra income to build a retirement nest egg. Not bad. At the end of the typical one year term the funds come back and you can re-invest again. Ok, so that is the positive side of this investment vehicle. What about the risks? What if a borrower does not pay their mortgage? The private lender is typically in second position. It is imperative for you to confirm that the first mortgage is up to date so you can control the sale process. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let this scare you. If you have a good loan to value on the property you will be in a good position to charge back costs plus any associated fees to the sale. The key in managing your risk is to do your proper due diligence on the property and get a realistic valuation from a reputable Appraiser or valuator. There is a lot of detail in this, but with proper counsel, the returns are worth this potential risk. Being a private lender has made people very wealthy. Do not let fear cripple your vision of having a great return. Contact carmen@profunds.ca for complete details and start to make your funds work for you â&#x20AC;&#x201C; build your wealth.

Commercial mortgages
T
his article explores a few of the considerations inherent in the procurement of commercial mortgage financing. Commercial mortgage applications are typically more involved than residential applications and are open to considerable subjective analysis on the part of lenders. This is because the assessed value of the underlying security, i.e. the real estate, is driven mainly by market forces occurring where the property is situated. Hence, location, timing of the current economic cycle, use, rental income and expenses or owner occupancy are key factors considered by lending institutions before advancing a loan. Loan to value ratio Lenders rely heavily on loan to value (LTV), which is the percentage calculation of the loan amount divided by the purchase price. If you know the LTV requirements of a particular lender, you can calculate the loan amount by multiplying the purchase price by the LTV percentage.
(i) an understanding of cash flow generated by the property relative to debt servicing the mortgage; (ii) ensuring appropriate â&#x20AC;&#x153;conditionsâ&#x20AC;? are set in the Agreement of Purchase and Sale; (iii) the documents, surveys, and third party reports the lender will require so it can intelligently assess the risk involved and the cost thereof; (iv) knowledge of the financial criteria the lender will use to assess the application including collateral security; The above list is by no means complete. As such, it is prudent to meet with a lawyer experienced in the area of commercial real estate acquisitions at the beginning of the process in order to make sure you are covered going into the deal. Timelines In commercial financings, lenders typically require anywhere from 30 to 90 days to carry out their due diligence. It typically takes this long as procuring necessary documentation, i.e. environmental assessments, property appraisal(s), financial statements, etc. takes time. Purchasers must ensure that any financing condition in an Agreement of Purchase and Sale affords sufficient time for said diligence to be carried out. Collateral security Prospective purchasers should also be aware of the possibility that other collateral security may be requested by the lender to secure the commercial mortgage. In many cases a personal guarantee will be required. Conclusion Commercial mortgages are more complex financing vehicles than the residential variety to which most people are accustomed. There are numerous elements to be aware of and a considerable number of things to come up to speed on when considering the purchase and financing of a commercial property. This article only scratches the surface and it is recommended that you consult directly with a commercial lender or lawyer experienced in the trials of commercial real estate should you be in the market to purchaser a commercial property. Perhaps the most difficult part of writing these articles relates not to the actual writing, but thinking of a topic to address. Please mail, deliver or fax letters to the magazine or to us, use the website (schwarzlaw.ca), email (schwarz@schwarzlaw.ca), or phone us at 1-888-609-8888 and give us your questions, concerns, critiques and quandaries. We will try to deal with them in print or electronic form.
Homework before approaching a lender Approaching a commercial lender is not simply a matter of just showing up. There is a long list of things you should know and have prepared prior to making a commercial mortgage application; for example:

BMO ECONOMICS CHANGES FORECAST – Interest rates not expected to rise until late 2013 BMO Economics now expects the Bank of Canada to maintain its overnight lending rate at one per cent until autumn of 2013 – a revision from their previous prediction of a rise in July 2013. The prediction was made following the recent Bank of Canada announcement which placed the overnight lending rate at one per cent for the sixteenth straight time. - Bank of Canada holds overnight rate steady - Next move in interest rates expected to be higher, not lower - Average household debt is $112,329 - BMO advises Canadians to continue reducing debt
“We now expect the Bank of Canada to remain on hold deep into 2013, even as they continue to signal that the next move in rates is still likely to be higher rather than lower,” said Doug Porter, Deputy Chief Economist, BMO Capital Markets. Mr. Porter suggested that Canadians are in relatively good shape regarding debt levels, but that rates will go up, and not down, by next year. A BMO report, conducted by Leger Marketing, shows average household debt in Canada, including mortgage, credit card, line of credit and loan debt, is $112,329. The report also shows: ~ The majority of Canadians with debt expect to be debt-free within the next five years. ~ One-quarter (26 per cent) of those who carry debt say that their debt load exceeds $100,000 ~ One quarter (25 per cent) of Canadians are debt-free ~ The average monthly debt payment is $1,138.49 “While debt is a part of life for the majority of Canadians, it doesn’t have to be a permanent fixture,” said Su McVey, vice president, BMO Bank of Montreal. “While interest rates have likely kept debt loads manageable for many households, that picture is poised to change. Developing a debt repayment plan that reduces debt but also accounts for other priorities and financial goals such as savings is essential.” “After the lengthy run-up of the past decade, it’s encouraging that many Canadians are planning to rein in their debt growth, as interest rates won’t stay low forever,” said Mr. Porter.“Household credit growth has slowed this year compared to over the past 10 years.” According to data from Statistics Canada, residential mortgages, typically considered ‘good debt’ as it is tied to household assets, account for 63 per cent of household liabilities, while consumer credit makes up approximately 28 per cent. Ms. McVey added that BMO offers a few tools and products Canadians can use to track their household finances and save. For example, BMO MoneyLogic allows Canadians to track and review their spending limits and savings goals in real time.“Once you have a clear idea of where your money is going, it makes it easier to course-correct where you may be over-extending and put a savings plan in place.” About BMO Financial Group Established in 1817 as Bank of Montreal, BMO Financial Group is a highly diversified North American financial services organization. With total assets of $542 billion as at July 31, 2012, and more than 46,000 employees, BMO Financial Group provides a broad range of retail banking, wealth management and investment banking products and solutions.
