    After doing some googling about that whole fiasco, it looks like the former Concrete Equities properties were taken over by Avenue Commercial and the bilked investors are finally getting some of their promised returns - 8 years later.
    DOES ANYONE NEED A GO-JUICE?

    Wtf. Why are you paying tax or getting a t5. Just like a bonus, dividends or interest you should only be getting a t slip when actual cash is paid and received....not accrued.

    I've also called the CRA asking about this as well, you have to included the accrued interest in the year it was earned regardless if it was paid to you or not.

    So say hypothetically you are never paid anything and the company disappears you have to still claim those past T5's as income?
    So 5 year bond, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013

    The last one should have been 2013.

    I just got another T5 in the mail for 2014!

    WTF is going on?! haha

    $800 investment income but I haven't seen a dime!

    Time to e-mail them!

    Maybe try talking to Global or another station that has a troubleshooter group. They would probably like a good local story like this and the company will hate the bad PR.

    LOL No need to lawyer up. I rather just not have to declare the 8% and just cross my fingers one day they pay out. haha

    You will continue to earn interest on the bond until such time as it has been paid out.
    Canada Revenue Agency rules state that a T5 must be issued to show accrued interest in each year it has occurred (even though it has not yet been paid to you).
    [/B]
    I'm just assuming? They keep the company going but don't pay out the bond (for whatever reason, recession, depression etc) I keep declaring for how many years? 5? 10? etc haha

    This is year 6 now.

    I guess that makes sense. Never really thought of it in that way.

    Well at least you're making $800 a year.

    Don't wait for the class action suit either, by then there will be nothing left. Lawyer up, sue for you money back and returns due, along with court costs, get a judgement in your favor, and then if they can't pay get the sheriff to help start seizing stuff like trucks, land or cars and auctioning them off.

    Even if they have nothing, at the very least you can can get the computer they wrote that sleazy mass update with, and then write it off as a loss instead of imaginary profits every year.

    What a fucking scam
    Couldn't agree more. They own land, you can get title to land or put a lien on it along with any vehicles or equipment they have. Lien on land = can't sell a house.

    This is why you don't invest with NE brown guys promising you millions in profits....fak.

    Was just by there this past weekend as I'm thinking of building again. I've ruled out wildflower because I just don't like the area myself, plus their prices are pretty high over there, I'm not sure why.

    However, people are building in there like crazy, I'm not sure how much or what part of it you're invested into, but it is moving forward in there more now than the last time I posted.

    The last 3-4 years have been booming in the Calgary Area. If they can't make money in that, I wouldn't be too hopeful. Yet I am sure the guys you gave your money to are still driving $100K+ cars around...someone made 137% ROI, just not the investors... lol

    The tone of that update reeks of insolvency. If they aren't showing their books, something is wrong.
