7 2008 – 2009 Job Loss For both Canada and US, the largest job losses have occurred since September 2008. Canada’s biggest loss was duirng the period of December 2008 to January 2009: 129,000 jobs. December 2008 saw a big loss of full-time jobs but was offset with a gain in part-time jobs. In December 2008, Alberta and Quebec had the biggest losses of full-time jobs. The US had increasing unemployment throughout the period. *Source: US Labor force Organization & Human Resources Development Canada Jobs Lost Unemployment Rate Change (Jan. 2008 – Mar. 2009) UE Rate Canada 295,0001.50%7.7% USA 4,100,0002.80%8.1%

8 Trends

9 Canadian Key Interest Rate The average duration of a crisis is 2.5 years. IT crisis did not greatly affect consumer spending. In January 2008, interest rate was 4.5%. Since then, there have been 6 drops to the interest rate. Current key interest rate: 0.5% WW II Ends IT Crisis S&L Crisis *Source: Bank of Canada

10 CAN GDP Growth vs. Key Interest Rate In the ’80s and ’90s interest rates reacted late to the change in GDP growth. Negative GDP growth lasted 1 year in major crisis. Slowing of growth was seen 2 years before reaching negative numbers, but improved within 1 year. IT Crisis S&L Crisis Free Trade with US. *Source: Bank of Canada: Trading Economics

11 Canadian Trade Both imports and exports behave similary. They diminish during a crisis, obtaining negative changes just for 1 year and picking up normal growth after the 2nd year. % Change * Source: Stats Canada IT Crisis S&L Crisis

13 Unemployment Rate Crisis lasted 2 years. During the S&L crisis, unemployment in Canada took 1 year longer than the US to recover. IT crisis was harder for US.

15 Greater Montreal Office Vacancy Projection Vacancy rate is strongly influenced by construction. Correlation between unemployment and vacancy rate is: Every 1% change in unemployment represents 2% in vacancy. So for Government forecast of 2009 with unemployment at 7.5% vacancy at end of year would be 8.6%. At the end of a 2 year crisis, vacancy rate would be 9.6%, with a spread of 2% depending on UE rate.

16 Downtown Values As Montreal is mainly a Downtown office market same correlation was used, assuming no new supply until 2013. Negative values in new supply are due to office buildings that have been converted into Hotels or Residential. YearNew Supply (sq. ft.)

19 Downtown with highest rental rates: New York, Calgary, Toronto. Suburbs with highest rental rates: Calgary, Los Angeles, Toronto. Montreal is in a good position because it has a healthy vacancy rate. * Source: Colliers N.A.

20 Vacancy rates have gone down in cities coming from high vacancy rates and diminishing construction. All cities have experienced a decrease in absorption. US cities have experienced a decrease in absorption since 2007 whereas Canadian cities just in the last 2 quarters. * Source: Colliers N.A.

21 Summary There are correlations between GDP growth, stock prices, unemployment rate and RE. Previous crisises had an average duration of 2 years. Bottom should be hit at end of 2009 or into mid-2010 with a slow recovery. Montreal and Canada are in a better position than the US, so fall should not be as hard. Change in absorption is felt immediately. Vacancy rate for 2009 should be between 7.6% to 8.6%. NER for Class A Building: $13.00 to $15.00.
