Hidden land assets lift cash strapped firms in Canada
A Toronto real estate consultant found forgotten parcels across southern Ontario for a client, including a 90 acre tract north of Toronto used since 1960 for future industry but later carved into a green belt. The firm borrowed 25 000 per acre, then sold at book value rising to 41.5 million. Inflation accounting spurs firms to reexamine holdings and unlock real estate value. Pan American World Airways plans to sell its 49 storey New York building for 400 million and lease back space.
