Q: Hello

My question and answer was:


Question:
I have USA stocks in joint margin account with Canadian Broker . When calculating if cost amount of total value Foreign Property exceeds $100,000 CAD I will use highest total value of Book Cost of all US securities. My question is: do you have to include in calculation of Total Amount any cash siting in my US account? Andrew

Answer:

If cash is held in a foreign jurisdiction (i.e. at a US bank) it needs to be included. If it is held at a Canadian company then it does not need to be reported.

I want to differently and more specifically formulate my question again:

Q: Could you explain to me STARLIGHT Investments and their multiple subsets. In Nov 2019, I was interested in the Continuum Reit IPO, but Starlight took over the Reit before the IPO for 1.72B, no small deed !! Where did the funds come from for such a young company, debt only? Are the many Starlight Multi-Family units Closed-end Funds? Limited PartnerShips? Do they have an « expiration » date ? Thanks.
