While liquid markets offer flexibility, they also invite volatility and short-term noise. This article explores how illiquid investments — especially private Canadian real estate — can deliver greater stability, discipline, and after-tax performance for long-term investors.

In a market shaped by volatility and shifting fundamentals, long-term investing remains a powerful strategy. Discover how CanFirst is identifying opportunity amid uncertainty—and positioning for strength through disciplined conviction.

In this first edition of the CanFirst Roundtable series, our team explores how trade policy, tariffs, and supply chain uncertainty are reshaping Canada’s commercial real estate landscape—and why decisive investors may gain the upper hand in a volatile market.

Tariffs have long been a cornerstone of economic policy, shaping trade dynamics and industries alike. For the commercial real estate sector, their ripple effects are significant, influencing costs, economic stability, and investment strategies. From the protectionist policies of the 19th century to modern trade agreements like NAFTA and USMCA, tariffs have evolved but remain a powerful force in today’s global economy.

At the Toronto Real Estate Forum, industry leaders underscored the enduring relevance of tariffs, with David Frum highlighting their impact under recent protectionist policies. For Canadian investors, understanding how tariffs drive construction costs and affect trade flows is critical. As CanFirst Capital Management notes, these challenges also present opportunities — from strategic acquisitions to capitalizing on limited new supply. Tariffs are more than a trade tool; they are a lens through which to navigate and thrive in the complexities of the real estate market.

Explore how commercial real estate investments offer stability and resilience during uncertain market shifts. Learn key strategies for navigating change and building long-term confidence in your portfolio.
