SIMULATION SESSION 2: INTRODUCTION
Session Overview and Objectives This is your session! You are the only person responsible for the level of effort you put into your learning journey. In other words, what you gain from this opportunity will be equal to the effort you put into it. Please take every advantage of this opportunity to enhance your success as a real estate salesperson. The primary objective of this session is to: • Facilitate opportunities for you to demonstrate the knowledge and skills that are needed to be practice-ready as a REBBA-compliant real estate salesperson. In a simulation session, you are placed in a situation—highly procedural—that resembles onthe-job circumstances. Its purpose is to: • Facilitate practice and feedback in a safe classroom environment • Promote self-discovery • Illustrate real-world circumstances Simulation Session 2 – Commercial Real Estate is not: • A content review o The FRS/vFRS sessions are intended for this purpose • A teaching session where new content is introduced • A remediation session o A remediation day is required for any learner who fails the Simulation Session 2 assessment Remember that this simulation session focuses on some of the most important aspects of the real estate salesperson role in order to ensure that you get good exposure to some of the more crucial tasks you will encounter on the job.
Providing Peer Feedback As in Simulation Session 1, Simulation Session 2 – Commercial Real Estate includes a series of small group role plays. To recap, in each role play you will take a turn at playing the: 1. Salesperson (you, playing yourself) 2. Buyer or Seller (depending on the scenario) 3. Observer (passively listening to the other role players) After each role play, the observer will provide feedback to the salesperson. All feedback will be based on the activity performance checklist (see sample that follows) for that activity and intended in the spirit of making you aware of your own areas of skill strength and areas that could benefit from remediation. The simulation sessions are intended to allow for practice and feedback to be given in a safe, non-judgmental environment.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: INTRODUCTION Activity performance checklists set out the predetermined standards for behaviours required in the real estate scenarios you will be practising and allow one to accurately measure whether a practice performance meets those standards. They can also help you prepare for your Simulation Session 2 assessments by reinforcing your understanding of the activity topics. The session facilitator will review the function and use of performance checklists on the first day of the simulation. Criteria Points to Observe

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 1 Office Buyer Storyline Conclusion After reviewing all the documentation and verifying financials, the buyer adjusts some of the financials to arrive at a more accurate analysis of the property. The salesperson drafts an amendment to the agreement with the new price (because of the adjusted calculations and cap rate), which is sent to the seller. After the seller agrees and signs the amendment, the salesperson sends the notice(s) of fulfillment to remove the conditions and the offer becomes firm and binding. If a condition is not fulfilled but the buyer still wants to proceed with the transation, a waiver would be used instead of a notice of fulfillment.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 1 Day 1 Action Planning Action Planning Introduction Take out your Action Planning Workbook. Building a career in real estate requires you to be adept at many skills. Some skills will come naturally, while others will require practice and refinement throughout your career. Action Planning is a tool to help you develop a concrete strategy for improving your skills and reaching your professional goals. Throughout the Simulation Session, you will be adding to your Action Planning Workbook to ultimately create some tangible action steps to perform after the simulation. Three steps to Action Planning 1. Reflect – The Reflect portion of planning starts during each practice activity as you receive feedback from others and then do the self-reflection activity. Then, at the end of each day, you will take a few minutes to look over the self-reflection notes you have made throughout the day and gather information to include in your Action Planning Workbook. Each day, you will choose two areas you performed well and two areas for improvement and enter them in your Action Planning Workbook. 2. Create the Plan – You will perform the Create the Plan portion on the last day of the Simulation Session. First, you will priority rank your areas for improvement and select the top two areas from the entire simulation you want to focus on for improvement. Then, you will determine your goals for each of those areas. Lastly, you will identify action steps to help you meet each of your goals. Please note that improvement planning is most effective when focused on 2 – 3 key items at a time. 3. Take Action – The Take Action portion of your plan will be performed after you leave the simulation session. Review the self-reflection notes that you took during the day in your workbook and identify areas where you think you performed well and areas where you think you could improve. Select up to two areas where you performed well and two areas for improvement and enter those into the corresponding columns of your Action Planning Workbook.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 2 Explaining Clauses to a Retail Buyer Role Play Introduction The purpose of this role play is to give you an opportunity to practise explaining clauses to the buyer. This role play is divided into two parts. We will complete the first part of this role play before lunch and continue with the second part after lunch. Scenario Background Information You have drafted the offer with all the relevant clauses that promote and protect the best interests of the buyer. Now you are ready to meet with the buyer and begin explaining the clauses to them. The Buyer may terminate this Agreement through written notice delivered to the Seller personally or in accordance with any other provisions for the delivery of notice in this Agreement of Purchase and Sale or any Schedule thereto not later than 5:00 p.m. on the 5th day of December, 20xx, if the Buyer is not satisfied with the results of the Buyer’s inspection of the real property, the Leases (or Offers to Lease if no Leases are available), and improvement. Upon receipt of the above notice, this Agreement shall be null and void and the deposit shall be returned to the Buyer in full without deduction. If no such notice is received within the above time limit, then this term of contract shall be deemed waived by the Buyer and this Agreement shall remain valid and binding whether or not the Buyer is satisfied with the results of the inspection as stated herein.
The Seller agrees to: a) Supply the Buyer not later than 5:00 p.m. on the 12th day of November, 20xx, with all Leases and/or Offers to Lease which are in force at the time of acceptance of this Offer and a set of “as built” building plans for the development of the site (if such are in its possession); b) Allow the Buyer, its agents and employees, to inspect the land and improvements at mutually convenient time or times; and c) Authorize all governmental and other authorities having jurisdiction over the real property to release to the Buyer all information such authorities have on file respecting the property. Should the Buyer hire agents, the cost and responsibility of such work shall be for the account of the Buyer. The Buyer covenants and agrees to restore the property forthwith after inspection to its pre-existing physical condition prior to the time of the first such inspection.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 2 Retail Buyer Storyline Bridge After you draft the offer, you meet with buyer and you explain all the details of the pre-printed and selected clauses to confirm that they fully understand all explanations before they sign the offer. After all explanations, the buyer proceeds to sign the offer. The offer is then submitted to the seller who accepts it. Once the offer is accepted, the seller provides the required documentation (e.g., financial statements, leases, contracts, etc.) Now, you need to discuss the components that would affect the value (e.g., market value appraisal) of the property with the buyer. This is done in order for the buyer to make an informed decision regarding his perceived value of the property.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 2 Determining the Value of a Retail Property When reviewing the financials for a buyer of a retail property it will be your duty as a salesperson to properly interpret and calculate the financials concerning the property. For this group discussion, using the scenario background information and financial details provided, you will individually calculate the financials that are required to determine the value of the retail property and then discuss your answers as a group. What financials would you need to determine the value of a retail property? ______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Key points to remember before you proceed further: • • • •
When you are doing per sq. ft calculations, it will be an annualized number TMI stands for taxes, maintenance, and insurance, which are expenses that the landlord will recover as additional rent and is not considered income (nor expenses) for the building. We are looking for a potential rental income calculation. Therefore, include any vacant units while doing calculations. You may refer to the formulae sheet below if needed during this activity
Term Cash Flow (Before Taxes) Net operating income NOI (Net Operating Income) Overall capitalization rate Potential rental income Value Cost Approach
Formula Net operating income – Annual debt service Gross operating income – Operating Expenses Rate (capitalization rate) x Value of property Net operating income ÷ Value of property Number of units x Annual rent per unit NOI (net operating income) ÷ Rate (capitalization rate) Land value + Soft costs + Hard costs

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 2 Activity Instructions – Part 1 1. Read the Scenario Background Information and other details provided in the cash flow worksheet. 2. Determine the Potential Rental Income, Effective Rental Income, Gross Operating Income and the Net Operating Income of the targeted property using the property's financials. 3. Determine the value of the plaza using the NOI calculated in the previous step and the given Capitalization (Cap) Rate. 4. Once everyone in your group has determined the value of the plaza, discuss your calculations as a group. What value did each of you determine, and how did you get this answer? 5. You have 20 minutes to complete Part 1 of the activity. Scenario Background Information – Part 1 After showing your buyer client two potential retail plazas, they decide to make an offer on the six-unit plaza that has one vacant unit. Once the offer is prepared and all the terms and conditions are explained, including the pre-printed ones and the ones on Schedule A, the buyer initials and signs the appropriate areas. The salesperson then delivers the Agreement of Purchase and Sale to the listing salesperson. The seller accepts the agreement with no changes. The buyer receives and reviews all of the appropriate documentation, which includes the following information: Units 1 & 2 are 1,200 sq. ft. each and are paying a base rent of $21.00/sq. ft. with an additional $5.50/sq. ft. for TMI. Units 3, 4 & 5 are 1,000 sq. ft. each and are paying $17.50/sq. ft. with an additional $5.35/sq. ft. for TMI. The vacant unit, which is also 1,000 sq. ft., would have a potential rental the same as units 3, 4 & 5. There is no other income attached to the plaza. The seller feels that a Cap Rate of 6% would be an attractive rate of return to an investor. In this location, the vacancy rates for plazas is 2%. The seller has a non-recoverable expense of $9,500/yr.

Determine the value of the property using the NOI calculated in Part 1 and the buyer's desired Cap Rate. 3. Once everyone in your group has determined the value of the property, discuss your calculations as a group. What value did each of you determine and how did you get this answer? 4. You have 10 minutes to complete this part of the activity. Scenario Background Information – Part 2 Having reviewed all the information, and being satisfied with it, the buyer feels that since a retail plaza is a higher risk than other types of commercial properties, they would want an 8% Cap Rate. Based on the buyer’s desired Cap Rate of 8%, what would be the value of the plaza?

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 2 Retail Buyer Storyline Conclusion After reviewing all the documentation and verifying financials, the buyer adjusts some of the financials to arrive at a more accurate analysis of the property. The buyer wants to proceed with the transaction but would like a price reduction based on the analysis. The salesperson prepares an amendment to the agreement with the new price and an irrevocable of 9:00 p.m. on the 4th day of December, 20xx, and the buyer signs it. The salesperson submits the amendment to the listing salesperson. The seller declines the amendment with the new price. The buyer decides that they would still like to move forward at the original price. The salesperson explains to the buyer that there is no further action needed on the buyer’s part and that the agreement remains valid and binding.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 2 A prospective buyer contacts the commercial brokerage and is forwarded to you, as you work in the industrial division. They would like to relocate their warehousing for their restaurant supply distribution business. They’re currently leasing and are looking to expand after outgrowing their current location and are looking to purchase an industrial property. You, as the salesperson, meet with the buyer, determine their needs and desired type of property, find potential properties, narrow them down, and select one. Scenario Background Information: The buyer wants to expand and purchase a larger industrial property with multiple loading docks, clear height of 30 ft., 20,000 square feet of space, at least 10% office space, ample parking, a fenced perimeter, and a heated warehouse, with the requirement of a transformer to increase voltage, and an adequate sprinkler system. In addition to all these requirements, the buyer would also like to have a separate building for the storage of containers/cylinders of Puron gas. For the main property the buyer is looking at, a Phase 1 environmental assessment was done five years ago and there was no evidence that a Phase 2 assessment was required. The business next door at the time was an automotive repair shop (which relocated four years ago).

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 2 Identify Clauses for Agreement of Purchase and Sale for Industrial Properties In this activity, based on the buyer’s requirements in the given scenario, you will identify issues that you would like to consider when drafting an agreement of purchase and sale. Scenario Background Information The buyer will be the user of the property and needs the property for a specific purpose. The choice of available properties is fairly limited. You locate a property that meets most of the buyer's requirements but has no separate building for storage. You show the property to the buyer. They like the property even though it does not have a separate building for storage that they are looking for. The buyer wants to proceed, however, as one of their conditions, they want to determine and satisfy themselves of the ability to add a separate building for storage on the property. You begin the offer plan by identifying issues and selecting clauses and looking more deeply at the Agreement of Purchase and Sale for the industrial property. Salesperson: The salesperson’s objectives are: • •
Identify issues that may require the inclusion of clauses in the agreement of purchase and sale for an industrial property Determine why these issues may require the inclusion of clauses
Activity Instructions 1. Independently read the information in your Participant Workbook. 2. Individually, generate a list of the issues that would need to be considered when drafting an agreement of purchase and sale for an industrial property. 3. Once everyone in your group has identified the issues, discuss your choices as a group. Which issues did you come up with, and why? 4. Come to a consensus on which issues should be reflected in Schedule A in an agreement of purchase and sale and write them on your group’s whiteboard/flip chart. 5. You will have 15 minutes to complete this activity.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 3 Industrial Buyer Storyline Bridge Moving ahead, the offer has been drafted and you have explained all the clauses to the buyer and the buyer is happy with all the terms and conditions. They then ask you to submit the offer to the seller. After some negotiations, the offer is conditionally accepted by the seller. The seller provides all required documentation, such as financial statements, leases, and service contracts. Once the offer is accepted, you verify all the financial information to ensure that nothing’s missing and then proceed to do your due diligence and confirm the value of the property. Remember that this is common in commercial real estate transactions—you might need to make amendments after conditional acceptance of the offer. You decide that you’re going to use the Cost Approach to determine the value of the property, as typically, a salesperson would have a difficult time finding comparable properties for industrial transactions.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 3 Determining Value Using the Cost Approach for Industrial Properties Scenario Background Information Remember that your buyer has outgrown their current location and is seeking to expand their warehousing and distribution of restaurant equipment. Now, with your help, they have located a three-acre industrial property with a building that has a gross floor area of 20,000 sq. ft. They feel this property would meet their current needs and would allow for future expansion of their business. They ask you for an opinion of the value of the property. You do the research and gather the following information: The industrial land values are estimated to be $4.95/sq. ft. The hard and soft costs are $68/sq. ft. and $14/sq. ft., respectively. (1 acre = 43,560 sq. ft.)

SIMULATION SESSION 2: DAY 3 Industrial Buyer Storyline Conclusion Let’s wrap up with the industrial buyer. As it turns out, the buyer’s condition for separate storage cannot be satisfied due to zoning restrictions. Since the buyer still wants to proceed with the transaction with a price reduction, you prepare an amendment with a new price, which the buyer signs, and the seller agrees and signs the amendment. The buyer then waives the condition on the outdoor storage and completes a notice of fulfillment for all other conditions and the agreement becomes firm and binding.

Disclaimer Throughout the program, you have learned about organized real estate, which includes membership in a local real estate board, the Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA) should the local real estate board choose to join, and the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA). These associations provide services to brokerages and salespersons who choose to have membership. If you become a member, you will have access to standard forms and clauses created by OREA. However, not all brokerages and salespersons choose to be members of organized real estate and are not required to use these forms. As they are commonly used in trading, specific forms and clauses will be used throughout the program for illustrative purposes.

SIMULATION SESSION 2: INTRODUCTION Day 4 Action Planning Part 1: Day 4 Action Planning Review the self-reflection notes that you took during the day in your workbook and identify areas where you thought you performed well and areas where you thought you could improve. Select up to two areas where you performed well and two areas for improvement and enter those into the corresponding columns of your Action Planning Workbook. Part 2: Create an Action Plan Follow these steps to create your action plan: • Prioritize Areas for Improvement: Review your areas for improvement from Day 1 through 4 and rank them. Choose 1 for the highest priority. • Select the top two areas for improvement you’d like to work on over the next three to six months (the ones you ranked as 1 and 2). • Define Goals: For each of your priority areas for improvement, create a specific goal related to how you can improve your skills or knowledge to address the area. Enter these goals in the Goal column of your Action Planning Workbook. • Identify Action Planning Steps: Identify 2 – 3 tangible steps you can take to put each of your goals into action within the next 3 – 6 months. Enter these in the Action Plan Steps column of your Action Planning Workbook. Consider the following: o What specific action you will do, and by when? Look at a combination of simple tasks and more complex tasks. The more success you have with the simple ones, the more likely you are to stick to your plan! o Recognize opportunities and challenges. What can help you get there? Who can help you get there? What will get in your way? What can you do now to minimize the impact of obstacles? Looking Ahead Going forward is the time to persevere and put your plan into action, do the things that you said you would, and get them done in the time you said it would take. Get out of your comfort zone and keep going! This is an ongoing process and, as you start to reap the benefits, it is one that you will want to continue.
