When we talk real estate investment, especially Commercial and Industrial real estate investment, there are a lot of factors at play when determining value. There is interest rate, and tied in with that there is rate of inflation. There is capital appreciation one can expect over time and of course there is net rent, or return on investment. And in some ways ‘cap’ rate ties it together.

When considering starting a business and incorporating there are several advantages. Owning a business in a simple partnership or sole proprietorship is important for branding and advertising. It is a requirement under the Ontario Business Corporations Act that business owners register their business names if they are advertising to the public. While a partnership or sole proprietorship can be a quick way to get your business off the ground, there are several reasons why incorporation might be the better approach. An incorporated business can exist indefinitely even after the original owner and incorporator have passed. This is because corporations are their own legal entity and do not rely on the person who created it to survive. As owners decease, the corporation can carry on its functions through its appointed Directors and Officers. This opens avenues for estate planning such as dual wills for corporate assets and shares.

Two years ago. Spring of 2020. We got together at Club Roma to celebrate the sales successes of 2019 by the men and women of RE/MAX Garden City Realty. It was a gala event.

As it turned out, just one week later public gatherings were reduced in size to the point that a celebration of this type would not have been possible.
