Canadian Commercial Real Estate: Theory, Practice, Strategy Textbook

Canadian Commercial Real Estate: Theory, Practice, Strategy is a comprehensive resource that outlines legal structures, institutions, and business practices that are unique to Canada. Various facets of the commercial property industry—including market valuations, debt market data, Torrens systems, accounting and tax implications, agreement of purchase, zoning and land use regulations, sustainability, leasing, and portfolio management—are contextualized through end-of-chapter review questions, suggested readings, and a glossary of key terms.

This textbook draws upon author S. Michael Brooks’s expertise as a commercial real estate lawyer and professor in Ryerson University’s real estate program. Each chapter offers detailed, expert coverage of a specific topic, distilled from Michael’s 35 years of experience in the industry and the collective knowledge of a team of contributors.
