Several assignments a year are completed for arbitration and for civil litigation purposes. The most common arbitration isssue is the determination of market rent for the renewal term of a lease. Other issues involve the estimate of land value pursuant to the renewal terms of a land lease, the rental value of parking, and the determination of the interest rate to be applied to market value in order to estimate market rent. Civil litigation issues have ranged from the value of undeveloped land for the split-up of a partnership, market rent of apartment units to determine provincial rent subsidies, and valuation of properties in power-of-sale and matrimonial proceedings.
