Our Edge

The "MLI Select" Advantage

By utilizing the CMHC MLI Select program, we secure 95% LTV financing with 50-year amortizations on our projects — allowing partner capital to go further.

Maximum Leverage

95% LTV financing means partner capital can support larger projects with lower debt-service costs during construction and stabilization.

Lower Interest Rates

CMHC-insured financing comes with preferential rates compared to conventional construction loans, improving project economics from day one.

Social Responsibility

MLI Select rewards projects that deliver energy efficiency, accessibility, and affordability — aligning project economics with positive community impact.

Building for Impact

Canada is facing a housing crisis. Our development arm specializes in projects that provide stable, long-term housing for families and individuals.

"We don't just consult on financing — we live it. Every project we present to our partners is one that we are personally invested in."

FAQ

Development Partnership FAQ

Common questions about real estate development partnerships with LendCity.

Partnership Details

Development partnerships typically require a higher capital commitment than private lending, starting at $100,000. The exact amount depends on the scope of the project.

Most development projects run 2-5 years from land acquisition through construction to stabilization. As an equity partner, your capital is committed for the project duration, though distributions may begin during the operating phase.

We do not publish projected returns on the website. Partnership economics, timelines, and structures depend on each project. Book a private strategy call with Scott to review the current pipeline and discuss terms that apply to you.

CMHC MLI Select is a government-backed program that provides up to 95% LTV financing with 50-year amortizations for qualifying multi-family developments. This dramatically reduces the equity required and improves cash flow, allowing partner capital to go further.
