Real estate is one of those topics that doesn’t always get the PD attention like new tax rules, CRA audits, and current developments. However, it is pervasive in everyone’s lives and daily practice. As such, the topic is an important one, particularly given there has been so much residential development throughout the country and with continued low interest rates, continues to attract a lot of investment capital. So our focus is not just on some tax aspects, but also, what’s going on in the financing spectrum. I’ve also been reading some real estate tax court materials recently as I think about our upcoming presentation. A couple “reminder” areas in particular were, one, what’s a current expense vs. a capital cost and the second related to the replacement property rules. I’ll write back on this later as I think there were some good reminder points. Real estate financing. Hear some real examples of current financing for development and income producing properties by one of the most experienced lenders in the country. If they can’t solve your need, they likely know who to direct you to. The CEO of the company, Scott Cameron will be presenting.
