The Asset

  • Address: Scarborough, Ontario
  • Size: 95,000 sq. ft. flex industrial
  • Land: N/A — leasehold
  • Price: $29M (lease value)

Critical last-mile distribution space in a submarket with very limited alternatives.

The Challenge

A long-term tenant faced a landlord-driven redevelopment threat alongside lease expiry. The space was critical to their last-mile distribution operation and relocation would be costly.

The Solution

Michael negotiated a protected renewal clause tied to a demolition notice provision, securing 5 years of certainty while achieving below-market rent in exchange for waiving relocation rights.
