Bluebird Self Storage

officially opens new locations in Toronto, Whitby & Burlington Company enjoys ongoing success in a recessionresistant industry Bluebird Self-Storage has officially opened three new stores in Ontario including Toronto, Whitby and Burlington, ON Since 1983, the team that founded Bluebird Self Storage® in Canada has developed and managed almost 100 institutional Class ‘A’ storage facilities across North America. The company has been the preferred developer and vendor to the self-storage industries developing real estate investment trusts (REITS) in the United States and Canada. Adopting the name ‘Bluebird Self Storage’ to encompass Canadian operations, the company is expected

Dalibor Radulovic Sales Representative dalibor1@rogers.com

to double the size of its current 11 store chain within the next 6 months.

“Self-storage is a recession-resistant industry and has become a prized asset by the real estate investment world,” Bluebird principal Reade DeCurtins said. “We’ve expanded our Canadian operations into Montréal, Calgary and Edmonton and are slated open in Vancouver first quarter of 2021. We are Canada’s most progressive self-storage concept and we’re making a push to be the most recognized.

“Bluebird Self Storage facilities’ modern design features a tower

logo that’s architecturally based on a birdhouse. Progressive design elements enhance architectural features that tie in with the neighbourhoods in which they operate,“ he added.

According to DeCurtins, “Bluebird is the culmination of our decades of experience in this industry in the U.S. and Canada. We’ve created an engaging brand and design aesthetic that sets us apart from our competition. The off-putting industrial buildings and creepy locations that have previously defined the industry are not what today’s educated selfstorage customers are looking for.

Bluebird identifies high-profile retail real estate for new locations. Our focus is then developing the most

Re-igniting your financial goals Money is a key stressor for most Canadians. They know it’s a problem but are reluctant or unable to break their bad financial habits. “The fact is, financial ignorance is not bliss,” says Gregory Brown, former associate manager with the Desjardins Financial Security Independent Network in Surrey, British Columbia.

Why do you think people avoid financial planning?

Many Canadians believe the Canada Pension Plan and Medicare will be able to support them during retirement. But these safety nets will become depleted as the number of retirees continues to increase over the next 20 years.

We’re told to save for retirement, but most people are unable to picture

what retirement looks like. If you can’t picture it, how can you prepare for it? So, you just don’t and avoid it altogether.

How do you overcome the fear?

First of all, take ownership for your past financial behaviours and your future financial goals. Be honest with yourself and know that anything is

FOR SALE 5.2 Acres Approved Commercial Land

possible with a plan. Next, write down your short- and long-term personal and financial priorities. Your financial goals will support your personal goals, so the two should be aligned.

Once we have our plan, what’s next?

It’s important to make time for regular financial discussions with your partner and some key family members. It’s also a good idea to work with a financial advisor who can facilitate the conversation and provide professional and unbiased objectivity. It’s never too late to make financial adjustments even if they appear out of control.

It just means that you have to get organized, ask for help and start making informed choices. CI News Canada

An Instrumental Approach to Building Your Credit 9 Easy Steps

BY PRO FUNDS MORTGAGES You find the perfect property, put in an offer, and learn that it has been conditionally accepted. Things are looking up! Next, you go to your mortgage broker for financing. Unfortunately, they report that you’ve been declined by the bank because your credit score wasn’t high enough. Now you’ve got a problem. You ask yourself: “How could something as simple as a credit score, prevent me from attaining my investment goals?”

Trust us, you wouldn’t be the first person to ask that question.

That’s why, as a Mortgage Brokerage, we like to educate our clients on the importance of maintaining a healthy credit score before you start the search for your dream property.

1. Pay your bills on time.

Get set up for deal-making success. Whether you are a first-time buyer or an experienced investor, your credit rating plays a major role in whether or not your deal is approved by the bank. Thankfully, there are a few instrumental steps you can start taking now, to ensure that you are building and maintaining that desirable credit score lenders are looking for. That way you’ll be set up for success when it comes time to sign on the dotted line. Here we outline nine ways that you can boost your credit score.

For lenders, an abundance of credit queries on your credit report signifies one thing: too many hard inquiries. A hard inquiry is what appears every time a credit company pulls your score.

Too many inquiries can raise a red flag, since it may look like you’ve overextended yourself credit-wise or are being declined on multiple credit requests. This could be the case if you are rate shopping for a new mortgage for example.

Additional Takeaway Visit ProFunds.ca/Articles for more!

Promptly paying your bills demonstrates to lenders that you are credit worthy. By paying all bills on time (including but not limited to credit cards, phone bills, car loans, student loans, rent, and utilities), you are creating a profile which positively impacts your credit score. Late or missed (delinquent) payments will negatively impact your ability to qualify for future credit vehicles. These delinquent payments can stay on your credit report for up to seven years and can be difficult to resolve.

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.

Get advice from a commercial real estate lawyer when negotiating a lease to seek exclusions for assets that you want to take with you when you leave.

Remember: If necessary, you can always apply for a leasehold improvement loan, a short-term loan (often amortized over five or six years) that you can use to pay for renovations to a leased space. You can sometimes negotiate a principal holiday for the first six to 12 months of the loan. Depending on the value of the improvement, a bank may accept the improvement as collateral for the loan, which could result in a lower interest rate than that for an unsecured loan. 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.
