    Rent to own tax questioh

    Hi, For clarification reasons, is this way of phrasing your question, asking the same thing? "How does the additional money paid per month by the Tenant above the regular monthly rental income get treated for income tax purposes - as income or as a deposit?" Todd

    Simultaneous Close Vs using and or assigns

    Great questions and responses! The value of the answers you received is worth many $$ of legal advice, replaced many years of experience and quite a few transactions. Just completing a few of the above, I agree with the comments. Not to be redundant, but, "if you don`t have a reserve chute...

    Question about the responsibility of the person actually paying the rent.

    I believe your only possible action is against the person on the lease, regardless of who was paying the rent, etc. It`s my understanding that the payment of rent was an agreement between the tenant and Chimo and Chimo would not be party to the lease agreement if they are not named on it.

    Who pays GST on a commercial building....the vendor or purchaser?

    Hi again Rob, I posted the treatment of the GST on the purchase on another thread. To answer your question about the GST on the commercial rents - yes, you are required to collect GST on the base rent and all the triple net charges and remit same to CRA on your GST returns. You can also...

    Help! What`s Causing Gray Striping on Exterior Walls?

    I believe the striping is caused by the cold migrating from the outside to the inside. If you check the width of the exterior walls, my guess is that they are only as 3-4 inches thick, meaning that the framing was done with 2*4s not 2*6s resulting in poor insulation and the metal studs act as a...
