Partner as an LP on Canadian Multi-Family Housing.

Direct AnswerLimited-partner equity in multi-family and social-housing projects — typically from $100,000, with a 2–5 year hold. We review GP, financing (including CMHC MLI Select where it applies), and partnership terms on a private pipeline call. No published yields.

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.

  • № 01

    Maximum Leverage

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

  • № 02

    Lower Interest Rates

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

  • № 03

    Social Responsibility

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

  • № 04

    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."

FAQQ & A

Development Partnership FAQ

LP equity, timelines, CMHC leverage, eligibility, and LendCity™'s role — without published returns.

Your role, risk, and LendCity™

These conversations are for limited partners: you contribute equity and are not day-to-day management. The GP sources the site, builds, and operates. Ask, in writing, who has skin in the game and who funds overruns.
Usually no. Development equity is typically non-registered capital. Registered funds are a better match for secured private mortgages. We sort that on the call rather than forcing equity into a plan that cannot hold it.
Often yes, depending on structure and securities law (including NI 45-106). Requirements are opportunity-specific. If an offering must go through a registered dealer, that is the channel — LendCity™ is a mortgage brokerage, not a dealer.

Your role, risk, and LendCity™ (Continued)

That is a real risk. An LP should see the construction budget, contingency, interest reserve, and what happens if the project slips. We walk through those questions on the review. Do not commit from a slide with a round IRR on it.
Partnership or offering documents, sources and uses, budget and contingency, environmental, GP track record, and an indication of construction / takeout financing. The overview PDF lists the pack. Nothing on this website is that pack for a live deal.
No. This is not an offer to invest. LendCity™ Mortgages is a licensed mortgage brokerage. We discuss financing and introduce partnership conversations. Where a securities offering is required, it is made only through properly licensed channels.

Partnership Details

Development partnerships typically start at $100,000. The exact amount is project-specific. Private mortgage lending starts lower (~$25,000) if equity is not the right first step.
Most run 2–5 years from land through construction to stabilization. LP capital is committed for the project. Distributions, if any, follow the partnership agreement — not a website schedule.

Partnership Details (Continued)

We do not publish projected returns. Economics, hold, and waterfall depend on the project. Book a pipeline review to discuss what is current and whether it is even a fit.
MLI Select can finance qualifying multi-family at high LTV with long amortizations, which can reduce how much equity the partnership must raise. It does not remove construction, cost, or lease-up risk. High leverage cuts both ways.
