Most people forget their dreams when they wake up.

Asaf Touchmair and Barak Rosen of Canada-Israel just go out and
fulfill them, turning visions into soaring skyscrapers or sprawling
estates. Here's how this dynamic duo conquered the summit
of Israel's global real estate investment firms.

By Daniel Francis

lobal real estate must be
a hectic business, since
getting the two partners
of Canada-Israel to sit down
together for an interview is like
trying to find matching socks
in the dark. Eventually, I found
myself joining them atop the
"W Tower" - one of their latest
luxurious developments overlooking
Tel Aviv. At 5 in the afternoon
the views all around are amazing,
encompassing Tel-Aviv and the
sea. "We've always been like
this, on the go", says Barak, "we
take a dream and run with it,
watching each other's back while
always looking forward". Asaf gets
off the phone and joins the
conversation. "I guess you could say
that our success derives from the
fact that we are different from other
real estate development companies".
As if reading his partner's mind,
Barak adds, "We are actually a
unique combination of global
entrepreneurs and a real estate
investment house, a sort of global
real estate fund. We put a lot
of effort in being in the right
place at the right time, learning
to identify potential and how
to seize it". Barak Rosen and Asaf Touchmair on the 35th floor of the 'W Tower',
one of their latest dreams under construction

After spending some time with
the two partners, it is clear that
the Canada-Israel group has a
unique business model. Their
extensive network of local offices
and global partners, combined
with their involvement in the
market, helps them to identify real
estate locations with significant
improvement potential. Next, they
turn the property into a complete
vision, incorporating their creative
ideas and unique methods.
Once the vision is developed, it is
brought to life by detailed planning
and packaging of the overall
project. At this stage they bring in
investors - actually a first exit - thus
reducing the financial risk. The
next phase is initiating financing,
and ultimately, managing the
project with a "hands-on" approach
until completion. This unique
approach of development, along

We 'read the signals' and know

that Canada-Israel's impressive
global portfolio is more than just a
collection of buildings. It portrays
a remarkable spread of assets, from
prestigious residential projects to
notable commercial holdings and
thousands of hectares of prime land
in strategic locations. But a closer
inspection reveals the partners'
distinct fingerprint and vision
- creating new lifestyle concepts.
"We stay constantly in touch with
our overseas partners, looking for
deals, searching for fresh ideas", says
Asaf. "Our whole attitude to real
estate is more far-reaching, and it
comes from who we are".

Asaf gives me a glimpse of the
blueprints of one of their projects.
"Take for example our venture

y next meeting with
the partners takes place
at a restaurant in Tel -
Aviv. I make use of this occasion
to try to understand what makes
Canada-Israel so successful. We
discuss their latest project in
Russia, a 25,000-unit development
in St. Petersburg, as well as the
global real estate scene.
Through our discussion, I begin
to comprehend the three
distinctive types of companies in
this business. First, there are the
"old school" companies run by
considered outdated. The second
kind is companies run by financial
wizards. These companies are mostly
successful, but to them a building
is like any other commodity and
all that the management sees are
facts and figures. Canada-Israel is
categorized as the third type, the
"new-age" real estate companies
- those that are lifestyle-oriented,
and which create new residential
concepts and new ways of living.
Anyone can build
a building.
We build dreams
"We look beyond the piece of
property, beyond the blueprints. We
envision the complete picture, what
07#
life will be like". Asaf takes on
the expression of a true visionary.
"When I look at a piece of land,
I don't just see the building
that will be constructed on it; I
see the total concept - the family
that will live there, the children
that will play in the park. I see
where they will go to school and
where they will shop, I envision
the landscape surrounding them
and all the paths throughout the
community. Instead of bricks and
glass and asphalt, I visualize a
complete lifestyle".
We look
beyond the piece
of property, beyond
the blueprints.
We envision
the complete
picture
"I think our outlook is influenced
by our experience", says Asaf.
"There's nothing like growing
up in the business to fully
understand it. Looking into a
person's eyes, listening to him or
her and watching buyers inspecting
an asset, is a lot different than
sitting behind a desk and doing
the math. Today we operate on
a global level, but that early
experience is what enables us
to achieve higher levels of
expertise and constantly improve
our business results. That is why
we are different, and we constantly
instill this way of thinking
to our management and employees".
Barak raises his wineglass in a
toast. "Anyone can build a building.
We build dreams".

We wake up
each day as if we're just
starting out.
It keeps us hungry

After following the two partners
for some time, I realized that the
true basis for their success is in
their inter-personal relations - with
each other, as well as with their
clientele, partners, investors and
employees. They built Canada-Israel
into a strong global company with
investors accompanying them from
the beginning, believing in them
and enabling the company to grow
almost without financial leverage.

This enables Canada-Israel to see

the whole picture right from the
beginning, enhancing its ability
to seize potential and turn it into
a successful reality.

Knowing Asaf Touchmair and

Barak Rosen, their "Midas Touch"
will continue for many years to come.

The W Tower, designed by Yashar

It is situated near the prestigious

On the first boulevard paved in Tel Aviv nearly 100 years ago,
Canada-Israel is planning a uniquely designed modern
building which will blend in with the city center and the urban
history around it.

he project on 17 Rothschild
Boulevard is yet another
fine example of Canada-
Israel's tendency for seeking
out the most unique prospects,
which combine high potential
for development and value. The
asset is located right across the
street from the home of Tel Aviv's
first mayor, Meir Dizengoff. The
development will be a combination
of the existing historic building
intended for restoration and an ultra
-modern tower atop. The location in
the heart of Tel Aviv's city center,
is bustling with activity by day,
offering trendy outings by night.
Many luxurious residential buildings
have been put up along this
fashionable boulevard during the
last few years, and Canada-Israel's
venture - designed by Yashar Architects
- adds to this trend. Canada-Israel
is developing an 18-floor building
on the site complemented by an
indoor swimming pool and spa.
The building will accommodate
special lofts and luxurious residential
apartments resplendent with 10-
foot ceilings and offering comfort
down to the finest details. This
project emphasizes the group's
commitment to history and urban
renewal while offering high-quality
lifestyle in the heart of Tel Aviv's
