Our Engagement & Investment Process

Close

1. Commitment

This initial step formally builds our relationship and helps us understand each other. The buyer agency agreement is forwarded to you, wherein the structure of our association is explained. This document is an official commitment to each other and further explains the investment process in a detailed manner.

Close

2. Team Structure

Before delving into the more complex processes, a team must be built to ensure that we are well-prepared to deal with any situation. This includes lawyers, accountants, appraisers, lenders and other professionals as required. In case you do not have people in mind, we can provide a list of qualified professionals.

Close

3. The Search

The team will go through great lengths to ensure that you find the perfect property that aligns with your investment objectives. This includes various resources including our own list of off-market opportunities and new or expired listings on the MLS.

Close

4. Strategize

It is critical to obtain the required information to assess various aspects of the deal. If the basis of the investment foundation seems strong and is compatible with your goals, we will then develop a unique financial and market analysis along with a strategy for offer submission.

Close

5. Offer Submission

The team will guide you on the business terms and submit a conditional Agreement of Purchase & Sale. This is a good practice as it enables you to walk out of the deal in case of any unforeseen situations during the due diligence period.

Close

6. Negotiation Phase

Ongoing communication and negotiations to ensure that both parties are satisfied with the deal, especially regarding the terms of pricing and timeline.

Close

7. Due Diligence

After coming to an agreement on the terms and conditions, a refundable deposit is submitted. While this entire process can take about two-three months or sometimes longer, we spend all this time ensuring that no key detail is missed and if every aspect is properly stated. This step is particularly important to recognize by eliminating risks and understanding key values which may not seem obvious.

Close

8. Sale Completion

Once the due diligence process is finished and all the required conditions have been waived, the sale process is now completed. Further assistant would be provided to help you lay the foundation by developing a good team that can manage your property thereafter.

Close

9. Lifelong Partnership

Even after the completion of the transaction, we continue to be a part of your real estate journey. Our team will walk with you into the next phase which involves ownership, asset management, financing, lease turnovers and any other hurdles you may encounter.

Leasing Services

It can be quite challenging and exhausting when you begin your endeavor of leasing a commercial space. While obtaining a good deal on the rental rate is an important aspect, there are other pertinent parameters that are just as crucial to consider. Commercial lease contracts are particularly complicated because they cover several terms and conditions while concurrently defining the relationship between the Tenant and the Landlord. This particular document will have long-term effects and the ideal lease ensures that both parties enjoy satisfactory benefits. Therefore, regardless of what your role is in the agreement, it is wise to consult with an experienced and certified broker.

It is very important to understand our clients requirements in order to customize a solution that is ideal for their needs. We will always keep your best interest top of mind and assist you throughout the leasing process, making sure that you have comprehensive knowledge about the lease terms and conditions.

Offer and Lease Review

Let us assist and guide you with reviewing and negotiating a lease agreement, offer to lease, letter of intent, lease amendment, assignment or sublease agreements.

Please select below which service you wish to explore further.

  • Offer to lease Review

    Offers to Lease are usually a legally binding contract unless otherwise stated. If this agreement is breached, it can result in arbitration or litigation, depending on the method of dispute resolution specified within the offer. Considering that this document serves as the basis for the Lease Agreement, we always recommend including provisions for having a professional review of the terms of the Offer to Lease.

  • Lease agreement review

    A lease agreement is a legally binding contract between a Landlord and a Tenant pursuant to which the Tenant obtains possession of the leased premises in exchange for the rent provided to the Landlord. The Lease document is a lengthy and complex contract which requires the expertise of an experienced commercial broker. Oversight of the important terms of the Lease Agreement can result in major legal and financial repercussions for your business both now and in the future.

  • Options to renew/extend

    Negotiating lease terms is a very important business decision, whether you are a Landlord or a Tenant. If a lease renewal is coming up, you’ll have to consider both business opportunities and possible new challenges.

    Our team can help you review and discuss the lease agreement renewal process and secure the best possible terms. When considering renewing a commercial lease, be sure to consider key factors such as the lease term, additional options to renew, business terms, and any leasehold improvements.

  • Assignments/Sublease Agreements

    A Tenant is legally obliged to pay for the rent until the lease expiration. If the Tenant plans on moving out before the contract expiration, there is usually an option to sublet or assign the unit, wherein the responsibility of paying the rent for the remaining lease period is transferred to the new Tenant. Let us help you with assignment or sublease of your leased premises.

  • Lease abstract

    We will provide you with a lease summary analysis abstracted from the lengthy Lease Agreement in a format that is easily understood. This prevents the time-consuming process of reviewing the entire provisions of the agreement while comparing the lease terms among multiple leases or properties. Specific terms typically include a description of the leased premises, price per square foot, term of the lease, security deposit, execution date, commencement/expiry date, financial reporting obligations, parties to the lease, permitted use, assignability, etc.

  • Tenant and Landlord dispute

    Tenancy and landlord disputes may arise during the lease period, and while most of the causes are minor, it’s important to know what measures to take to ensure a mutual resolution between both parties can be reached. Whenever a dispute arises, it is essential to hire an experienced team so that your position is properly explained to all stakeholders.

Professional Consultation

Consult with us to assist you further with any of the following additional services:

Land Entitlement Services

Helping our clients capitalize on the potential of their land by repurposing, developing, leasing, or assisting with zoning or official plan amendments.

We have served clients in various municipalities in the Greater Toronto Area and worked closely with planners, engineers, and other professional consultants. The success of a project is typically influenced by parameters involving development buildable density, zoning/official plan by-laws, land use, floor space index and other local characteristics. Manifesting the land development process from concept into reality involves several tasks to be performed and resources to be leveraged which can be quite overwhelming. Moreover, the information and resources that are required may be difficult to cultivate.

An experienced broker on your side can help to conduct impartial research, formulate marketing and financial analysis, facilitate the selection, and secure the appropriate product to serve the local market demands. Our team is always willing to further assist clients in finding potential equity partners, construction financiers, general contractors, and other professionals as required.

Asset Management

The objective is to maximize the property value and investment returns for our clients. It is important to conduct an overall audit of your assets to identify opportunities by reducing expenditures when possible, determining capital improvements, securing solid sources of revenue, and mitigating liability and risk, among other things.

The initial process begins with understanding the needs of our clients, then the planning, the acquisition phase, the operation and maintenance phase, the refurbishment and enhancement phase, and, finally, the disposition of the asset. Let us help you with high-level decision-making such as leasing, capital improvements, budgeting, and occasionally, financing for your real estate portfolio.

  • Leasing: Select tenants, set rent prices and reimbursement structures, and negotiate the fine points of each lease including but not limited to free rent, scheduled escalations, annual vs periodic increases, tenant improvement allowances, and more.
  • Capital Improvements: Assist with creating a budget and oversee major capital improvements, working closely with general contractors to make sure projects are completed on time and on budget.
  • Budgeting: Work closely with the property managers to set budgets for each individual property, forecasting income and expenses for the upcoming year.

Real Estate Management Phases

Broker Opinion of Value

A broker opinion of value (BOV), is an assessment of a commercial property’s value by a commercial real estate broker and is typically requested by a property owner to determine market value. A BOV is similar to an appraisal in the sense that they both result in a value estimate for the property, but there are key differences. Major factors to determine a BOV consists of the following parameters:

  • Property Type: What is the type of property that is being valued, and is the value consistent with similar properties of the same type on a per-square-foot or per-unit basis?
  • Property Condition: Is the condition of the property being valued similarly to the condition of the comparable properties used as a basis for value? If not, were the appropriate adjustments made?
  • Market Conditions: What are the assumptions behind how market conditions impact value?
  • Sale Prices of Similar Properties: What are the sales prices of comparable properties on a per-unit and per-square-foot basis? How do they relate to the property being valued?

Commercial Business Solutions

There are several factors that need to be considered before purchasing or leasing a commercial property. Our team provides guidance to business owners by assisting with site selection, negotiations, planning, and design/build services.

It’s always advisable to consult with a professional to gain a better understanding of the market, current rates, and your contractual obligations before signing any documents. Securing favorable business terms and provisions requires extensive research, careful planning, and a strong negotiation strategy. The process of narrowing down site selections and reviewing options can be overwhelming, as it is generally lengthy, and the offer, lease, or purchase contracts are often structured to favor the landlord or seller, given that they are typically drafted by their legal counsel.

Overlooking hidden clauses and terms can be detrimental, so it’s crucial to identify these in advance to protect your interests.

Buy with Bitcoin

We are a tech driven brokerage firm and acknowledge cryptocurrency as an asset and payment method due to its decentralization, high level of security, and resistance to government and financial institution control. The payment system is peer-to-peer wherein users can transact directly without relying on third party intermediaries such as banks. These transactions are verified by network nodes and recorded on a public distributed ledger called the blockchain which uses bitcoin as its unit of account. We also use the blockchain infrastructure to share sensitive documents and to provide our clients with an additional layer of added security and privacy.

If you choose to pay for a lease or purchase transaction with your bitcoin, we will issue you an invoice equivalent to the agreed upon terms of the purchase or lease contract in Canadian currency, you can then proceed with the payment using your chosen type of cryptocurrency. There will be a fifteen (15) minute rate lock freeze to receive the Crypto payment which is equivalent to the terms of amount indicated on the contract. The funds will then be converted back to Canadian fiat at that locked market rate and wire transferred by our merchant services provider to our brokerage trust account within the next business day. Upon receipt of the funds in our trust account, we will release the funds as per the terms of the agreement to either the Seller’s lawyer or their real estate brokerage trust account.
