What makes

innovation districts work?

Panel discussion offers insight into the tech sector and Toronto’s recent ‘tech boom’ International design and strategic consulting firm B+H recently partnered with the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Toronto to host a panel

discussion. The event focused on the changing workplace, the rise of innovation districts, and how it is influencing new development.

COMMERCIAL INVESTOR | Commercial Real Estate & Business Opportunities

Panelist moderator Catherine Osborne described an innovation district as an urban phenomenon – born organically with the rise of Silicon Valley – where tech entrepreneurs cluster based on the need to share knowledge and talent. Osborne, a writer and editor with an

KITCHENER/WATERLOO GUELPH & CAMBRIDGE expertise in architecture and urbanism, explained that the main feature of innovation districts is that they are community based, not siloed in office buildings. Patrick Fejer, senior design principal at B+H, whose firm was the lead designer for the MaRS Phase II building in Toronto, said: “We previously used to measure efficiency of an office building by how many people we can populate on a floorplate, but now the focus is really about what events can transpire, what amenities does this building have, what kind of programs can promote community activity.” But beyond the workplace, what makes an innovation district – whether planned or organically formed – sustainable? How do we design cities, streets and urban cores to sustain this kind of growth? The city of Melbourne, which is half

the size of Toronto, has esteemed educational institutions and is becoming a leader in the educational technology and biotech sectors, attracting both local and international tech companies to lay roots in the city. This is contributing to a $2.2billion start-up market. “Why are they choosing to stay here?” said Michelle Fitzgerald, Melbourne’s first-ever chief digital officer. “It’s about the talent and the livability of the city, strong transit links, great school systems for people to raise a family, great coffee and food.” Toronto has been cited as the fourth largest and fastest-growing tech-hub in North America. “Toronto is a safe, wonderful place, and we have incredible timing based on what is happening in the US over the last couple of years,” said Candice Faktor, managing partner, Faktory Ventures, an early-stage fund investor in exponential technologies and network

effects, and a strong advocate of Toronto’s tech economy. “I think MaRS, in particular, has benefited from Toronto’s ecosystem being a cluster of AI innovation. It was the global recognition of the AI ecosystem which brought a lot of talent and capital here.” The panelists went on to discuss how to balance affordability with great places to work and discussed a new breed of co-living rental spaces that model the rise of the co-working space – units with more shared spaces, Instagram-worthy décor, and recreational programming. Spaces are being re-imagined for “the mobile Millennial talent who want to work in innovation hubs but can’t afford to live in the city,” said Faktor. The importance of having mixeduse neighbourhoods to sustain the growth of innovation districts was also addressed. CI

BDC study:

Strong online presence drives growth Growing a business online results in higher revenues, direct communication with customers and easier access to global markets, according to a new study released in July by the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC). The study indicates that although being online fuels growth, only four out of 10 Canadian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with an online presence sell, receive and take orders online. Consequently, 60 per cent of Canadian SMEs are missing huge growth opportunities. “Still too many Canadian entrepreneurs leave money on the table for grabs by Canadian and foreign online competitors. Considering worldwide retail e-commerce sales are expected to double between 2018 and 2021, it is vital that Canadian business owners take their digital presence seriously,” says Pierre Cléroux, vice-president, Research and Chief Economist at BDC. “A strong online presence

should be at the heart of any business that wants to continue growing and remain competitive.” The study is based on a survey of 1,485 Canadian businesses with an online presence and with national or international activities. Although most Canadians are buying online, close to half of all Canadian SMEs didn’t have a website in 2017, according to Statistics Canada.

Growing online: Worthwhile but challenging The study finds that businesses building a market expansion strategy on top of an online strategy are more likely to enjoy higher revenues and profit growth. They are also close to three times more likely

to export. However, SMEs face a variety of challenges when growing their business online, such as data protection and security (32 per cent), lack of knowledge of Internet technologies (25 per cent) and the difficulty of hiring and retaining qualified talent (24 per cent). Only 15 per cent of respondents identify the cost of setting up an online store as their top challenge. Businesses that expand online spent on average $37,458 on their website and $29,210 on their online marketing in the last three years. Larger businesses tend to spend seven times more than smaller businesses to optimize their online presence.

Planning is key “The first step in expanding online into new markets is to get your online strategy right. Then, you can build your market expansion strategy on top of it,” says Philippe Desjardins, business advisor at BDC Advisory Services. “As in many business opportunities, planning is the best way to achieve long-term, sustainable success and avoid common pitfalls.” The study also identifies six online practices businesses can follow when expanding to new geographic markets: 1. Measure your business’ website performance 2. Improve your visibility with search engine optimization 3. Invest in search engine marketing 4. Continually tweak your website to meet customer expectations 5. Make your online expansion plan the core of your strategic plan 6. Personalize it with customization CI Source: Business Development Bank of Canada. bdc.ca

First steps to starting a small business BY GEORGE GRIGNANO AND WILL TOWNSEND

The right attributes, a good idea, a plan to make it work and a way to finance your business are all ingredients in the recipe for success. Here are some considerations: The familiar characteristics of a successful entrepreneur include: Optimism – Entrepreneurs focus on solutions, not problems. Passion – The quality that fuels their business and their personal lives. Persistence – Entrepreneurs keep going in times of adversity and stay focused on the end goal. Flexibility – The ability to adapt to a changing environment. Education – Not formal education but a desire to learn and a drive to improve. Focus – Entrepreneurs focus on the big vision and recognize that shortterm wins, although important, must add to long-term success.

Generating a business idea The next step is to identify a gap in the market that your product or service will exploit. This is easier said than done and can be the toughest part of setting up your own business. To do this, ask yourself these questions: What services or products are missing from the market? Could you invent a new product? What do you dislike about existing products and services? Could you improve them? Using your own life experiences to inspire your ideas can help you spot business opportunities. This will also make you passionate about your product as you will be able to see and sell the benefits. Remember, passion is one of the key characteristics of a successful entrepreneur. 22

Turning your idea into a strategic plan Studies show that a significant amount of new businesses with no business plan fail within the first two years. Your business plan reflects how you see your business developing and maps out how you intend to drive your business forward. It should set out your product, your intended market, and your key financial targets such as projected sales and profits.

Financing Your plan should also show the seed capital you need to start up and your day-to-day working capital requirement. It is vital that your assumptions and estimates are accurate and reasonable. Do this and you will be able to foresee any problems and resolve them before they happen. A robust business plan allows you and potential investors to see how your business may perform in the future.

Here are some ways for you to finance your business: – Investigate any government support such as grants or loans. – Borrow money from a bank or other lender. – Ask for help from friends or family. – Look at equity financing, where you raise money from external investors in return for a share of your business. These investors will usually be venture capital firms or business angels.

COMMERCIAL INVESTOR | Commercial Real Estate & Business Opportunities

– Consider bootstrapping, a way of starting a business without external finance. This method is more strategic and focuses on creating cash flow, minimizing expenses and reinvesting profits.

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

Before deciding on the structure, answer these questions: ~ Is it important that you limit your personal liability? ~ Does your business need to meet any regulatory requirements that may have a bearing on your business structure? ~ How important are ease and set-up costs? One structure may be easier, quicker and cheaper than another. ~ Do you have an exit plan? If so, consider how the structure choices impact on your plan. The tax and accounting requirements you have to meet will depend on where you operate. Also depending on where you operate, there may be government tax incentives, so be sure to investigate this. Wherever you are and whatever your business, choosing how to structure your business is an important decision. It is worth seeking professional tax and accounting advice to help you make the right choice. Becoming a successful entrepreneur isn’t easy. If you have the right entrepreneurial characteristics, the right idea and structure your business the right way, you’ll stand a good chance of succeeding. CI January 30–February 27, 2021

RENTING OUT

YOUR CONDOMINIUM

BY JACQUELINE MONETA JD WITH ASSISTANCE FROM JAYSON SCHWARZ LLM

Buying a condominium as a rental property can be a great investment, but now that you’re a landlord, it’s important to understand the rules and regulations that govern you and your tenant. What rules apply? All landlords and tenants are governed by the Residential Tenancy Act, 2006 (RTA). The RTA outlines the rights and responsibilities of landlords and of tenants who rent residential properties. It also covers the leasing agreement and issues such as maintenance and repairs, tenancy agreements, rent, entering a rental unit and ending a tenancy. In a condo building, the Condominium Act, 1998 also applies. The Condominium Act sets out the relationship between the owners, condo corporation and board of directors. This means that you have to give your tenants a copy of the condo rules and make sure they adhere to them. The condominium corporation may have its own rules on rentals as well, which could include a minimum number of months for the rental and other obligations. It is important to read your condo rules prior to entering any lease agreement.

Do tenants have access to amenities? Tenants must follow the same rules as owners, and have the same rights as owners when using building amenities. 24

However, parking spaces and/or lockers can be included in the lease agreement at the discretion of the unit owner. Owners can choose to retain those for themselves or rent them to another tenant.

How much can you charge? When you’re renting a unit to a new tenant, you can set the rent based on current market prices. There is no maximum. The market price for a unit may be higher than that paid by a previous tenant. The RTA covers most types of rental units. Generally, landlords can increase rent: • only once every 12 months; • with 90 days written notice; and • based on the guidelines set for that year by the Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing.

Subletting and short-term rentals What if your company sends you for three months of training in another city? It is becoming more and more popular to list your condo on a shortterm rental site to make some money while you are away. Be careful; lots of new condos have specific rules governing shortterm rentals, such as a minimum number of months on a lease.

When buying an income property, it is important to read the rules prior to firming up your deal, and express this intention clearly to your realtor and lawyer. These rules prevent owners from converting their units into a vacation rental. Condo declarations can also spell out requirements, such as each unit shall be occupied and used only as a private single-family residence. If you’re renting out a unit for a longer term, any tenants have to abide by the terms of the rules and declaration, too. Therefore, a tenant cannot lease the unit out for shortterm stays. If you decide to sublet your unit, notify your insurance company to see if and how your policy covers damage caused by tenants. When renting out your condo unit, you are responsible for following the rules of the corporation. Always check the rules to make sure you’re not in violation. Make it clear in your rental agreement that your tenant is bound by the condo rules, and give them a copy. A condo can make a great investment, but you’ll save time and money if you put in some work at the beginning to understand your rights and responsibilities as a landlord. CI

Your Price for ‘Upside’ Finding Value in the Grey Areas By Cliff Ford, Skyview Realty

With the ever-increasing demand for multi-unit residential properties amongst investors, a trend has been emerging over the last number of years. Many properties, and certainly buildings with 30+ units, are seeing multiple offers as part of an open bid submission process. If you aren’t familiar with the bid submission process, it is the act of marketing a property for sale without providing a price. Typically, the Seller will provide all due diligence documents in advance of the offer deadline to allow buyers to determine what they are willing to offer on any given property. Sellers love this process as it can generally lead to multiple offers and can create a bidding war that drives up their end price. Buyers dislike this process, however, because they prefer to have some guidance on pricing going into the offer stage. As a brokerage, we are caught in the middle of wanting to deliver great results for our Seller and satisfying our buyer clients’ demands for more investment properties. What we have been noticing with these open bid properties is that ‘upside’ becomes a very common discussion point. The value a buyer places on the upside in a building can often become the factor that makes their offer stand out among the rest, at least as it relates to purchase price. When considering what the upside is on a property, its more than just rental rate upside, especially considering the lower vacancy rates seen in the Ontario market nowadays. Beyond the upside of what you could rent turned-over units for, investors are looking at upside in the utility consumptions by implementing programs to replace lighting with LED bulbs, installing Low-flow toilets in every unit, and investing in higher efficiency heating equipment. Upside can also be found in converting excess space in a building to either additional units, commercial space, or amenities that could draw in greater tenant rents. Sometimes even the location of the property itself

can have a form of upside for a particular buyer, in that they may own a building nearby and could create valued upside in the sharing of mutual expenses between each property. Whatever the upside factors may be on any particular property, when going into a purchase process, understanding what YOUR value is on the upside will give you a leg up when bidding against other buyers. It appears that, at least for the time being, the sale price of the property is no longer determined just by market comparable sales. It is now the grey areas of upside that are driving the prices higher. Of course if every seller had their way, the Buyer would be paying for 100% of the upside in their purchase price but realistic sellers also know that they need to leave something on the table for a buyer. As a buyer, you need to know what the upside is and how much you are willing to pay for that upside. It is a business decision that only you can determine based on your operations. To be fair when discussing bid submission processes, it should be stated that price may not always be the only factor when a seller chooses one offer to work with over another, but it is likely the most significant factor. As an example, buyers are becoming more and more organized in their purchasing processes in order to streamline their conditional periods and closing dates, as this can also help to achieve a sign back from a Seller when multiple offers are on the table. Especially if all offering prices are neck and neck, the terms of the offer becomes an important factor for a seller. You may not be a fan of the open bid submission process, but it appears as if this new trend will be sticking around. By doing proper due diligence upfront, good research on the property’s market, and determining the price you want to pay for the upside, you can still achieve great acquisitions in this tight and highly sought after investment class.

3. Check in on your credit report. Even if you are not considering a real estate purchase until well into the future, a self-check on your credit history once or twice a year is a great idea. Why? It isn’t uncommon for people to discover errors that can subsequently lower a credit score and impact your qualification potential. Common reporting errors can include: • Mistakes in your personal information—wrong mailing address incorrect date of birth, etc. • Errors in credit card and loan accounts, such as payments marked late that you actually made on time. • Missed or delinquent payments still listed on your account after the maximum years they should appear. • Personal accounts listed that you never opened. Additional Takeaway Visit ProFunds.ca/Articles for more!

4. Pay first – dispute later. Fraudulent credit card charges can be alarming. Your first instinct may be to dispute the charge and launch an investigation. It’s important to note however, that refusing to pay the charge during an investigation can still result in late payments and interest charges that can damage your credit. Unless the charge is excessive and potentially criminal, a more credit-friendly approach is to pay first and dispute later. Credit card companies are very good at rectifying errors, but the process can take some time. You do not want any erroneous charges accumulating interest and creating delinquencies while you wait. Additional Takeaway Visit ProFunds.ca/Articles for more!

5. Don’t close unused credit cards. You’ve paid down a credit card and want to close it out. Not so fast! Keeping unused cards open can lower your credit utilization ratio. This means on paper you’re doing a good job of keeping your debt-load in check. Here’s how it works. If you owe 10k on one credit card with a 12k limit, your ratio is high. If you owe that same 10k on the same card, but you’ve got an additional 20k in unused credit on two other cards, your overall debt ratio is much lower, and deemed more favourable from a lender’s perspective. Additional Takeaway Visit ProFunds.ca/Articles for more!

6. Diversify your credit. Many people use only one credit card and pay it religiously. As prudent as this might seem, many of these same people are surprised to find their credit rating isn’t as high as they thought.

Why? Maintaining a mixed portfolio of credit types—credit cards, line of credit, car loans, even utility & cable bills, etc.— may improve your credit score. When it comes to assessing loan suitability, lenders like to see an array of credit products. If your credit report is too “thin”, (limited to one or minimal credit products), lenders may see that as a risk given limited overall history. Additional Takeaway Visit ProFunds.ca/Articles for more!

7. Know your limit and spend within it. Many people negatively impact their credit rating by unknowingly over-utilizing their available credit. As a general rule of thumb, keep your spending within 70-75% of your maximum credit allowance, including interest. When you max out a credit card or keep a line of credit close to its limit, lenders start getting concerned about your credit utilization. Not to mention the fact that you risk going over your limit once interest charges commence. Some tips to keep balances from getting too high are: • Pay more than the monthly minimum to decrease balances. • Request a card limit increase, without increasing your spending. Additional Takeaway Visit ProFunds.ca/Articles for more!

8. Be cautious when co-signing. It is important to exercise caution when agreeing to become a guarantor/co-signor on a mortgage or other debt instrument. You cannot control another person’s spending or payment habits. Delinquencies resulting from a co-applicant can have a detrimental effect on your credit score. Additional Takeaway Visit ProFunds.ca/Articles for more!

9. Increase the length of your credit history. Finally, we come to one of the key components of any good credit score—your history. The longer you can maintain a credit account, the better it is for your score. Due diligence over time is exactly the sort of trait lenders are looking for when reviewing your report. The longer you own any particular credit card or keep a line of credit open, the better it is for your score. The key here is keeping those credit vehicles clean. Additional Takeaway Visit ProFunds.ca/Articles for more! Follow all the steps above and you’re well on your way to a solid credit score and getting approved for a mortgage. Great work! Now, start making those dreams a reality.
