Lendmax Capital Mortgage Investment Corporation’s Investment Strategy:

Lendmax Capital Mortgage investment Corporation has one main focus, to use its decades of experience in real estate and mortgage lending to help investors achieve a strong and consistent yield. We do so with a fusion of our extensive broker partner network and integrated proprietary technology that delivers a streamlined service to partners and borrowers alike.

Our investment approach is simple, we implemented Ontario wide funding to diversify our mortgage portfolio. There are great opportunities across the province and pockets where housing demand continues to stay strong. We also equally split our risk between first and second positions but we are diligently cap our risks with the market situation in mind. Post covid and thanks to inflation the housing market has been unpredictable, yet LMC has seen its’ best year since inception finishing off with a gross annual yield of 10.96% in FY2022. In just over 18 months of operations LMC has found a niche that aims at safer returns form lower loan-to-value investments with an solid exit strategy that continues to offer liquidity to perform even better. As LMC continues to grow, we invite investors to review our offering and talk to Investment Specialists to guide you better on how you can diversify your holdings through us.

The year 2020 – Months of preparation to get setup as a Mortgage Investment Corporation came with extensive due diligence and careful consideration of building the right team to lead and guide our investment objectives. We completed all our paperwork and were on our way to becoming a mortgage investment corporation in the new year!

The year 2021- As we filed our offering with OSC, we were almost immediately greeted with Covid shutdowns and a very unpredictable market. We continued our humble operations to grow the fund while acquiring investments under our friends and family exception. As a first year for the mortgage investment corporation, we equipped ourselves with the ability to accept registred investments and partnered up with Community Trust and Western Pacific Trust Company.  Our first closing in August of 2023 let us start our lending operations and fund our very first deal, since then we haven’t looked back.

The year 2022- With full fledged operations we focused on creating infratructure, a scalable technology while investing in every sound mortgage investment opportunity as we built a book of business and connected with our broker partners to find the perfect place for our product offering. We quickly became the challenger lender offering 1st and 2nd mortgages to quick close and short term mortgage needs. With minimal investment intake we finished the FY2022 with a strong  gross earning of 10.96% annual yield and where other MIC’s continue to offer a return hovering around 6-7% after decade worth of operations, we humbly paid out 7.82% Annual Net Return to all our investors. Our 2023 annual earnings are expected to land us a net divident payable at approximately 10% so look forward to our Offering Document Update in March, 2024.

So, if you are looking for an investment opportunity that targets growth, safe and consistent returns, be sure to compare our fresh take to a lean business model on path to becoming a big name in Canadian Mortgage Lending & Investments.

LMC MIC is a mortgage investment corporation operating under section 130.1 of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Act”) where investors categorized under non-qualified, qualified and accredited can opt to invest and purchase shares of the company that generates a revenue from lending against properties. The investment intake process is managed under an exemption within private markets under the regulation of OSC (Ontario Securities Commission) and each investment is vetted by an EMD (Exempt Market Dealer). The mortgage funding management is facilitated by Lendmax Inc. that operates under the regulation of FSRAO (Financial Services Regulatory Authority Ontario) to ensure accurate mortgage payment, arrears and funding administration.

What are the benefits of MIC investing?

1. Canadian Residential Real Estate strength derives from our community holding a priority over payments towards a shelter in high regard. This allows a MIC to invest into the real estate where over decades we have seen a consistent incline and appreciation of property values. As a MIC shares sold to investors raise capital to lend mortgages to borrowers under a strict criteria of qualification that offers a pre-meditated return on the loan advanced. This is an amazing solution to increasing cashflow to your portfolio.
2. RRSP / RESP / TFSA / LIRA Eligibility to invest in a MIC compares to other products that may be invested under these vehicles. Registered accounts of these nature are a great way to reduce or remove tax liabilities in growth of your principal amount. Holding and managing your self-directed RRSP or RRIF accounts is easy.
3. Competitive Returns: Put your money to use by yielding above 7% in consistent and stable dividends, using the MIC investment model, you are investing in a brick & mortar opportunity that has been carefully vetted by the MIC management as a promising return.
4. Professional Management: An experienced team that manages your money by utilizing their expertise in mortgage lending, real estate, property acquisitions and financing can help you generate safer returns on your investment.
5. Diversification: Today’s market volatility demands a modest approach in hedging risks elsewhere, by investing in a MIC, a stable and consistent return you can reduce your exposure to the market and losses.

Although real estate investing is considered one of the safest investments, risks still exist in mortgage lending. All property investments are subject to elements of risk. Property value is affected by general economic conditions, local real estate markets, the attractiveness of the property to tenants, competition from other available properties and other factors. While independent appraisals are required before the corporation may make any mortgage investment, the appraised values provided therein, even where reported on an “as is” basis, are not necessarily always reflective of the market value of the underlying property, which may fluctuate. The MICs’ income and funds available for distribution to security holders would be adversely affected if a significant number of borrowers were unable to pay their obligations. Upon default by a borrower, LMC MIC may experience delays in enforcing its’ rights as lender and could incur costs in protecting its investment. To mitigate these risks, the experienced team of Underwriters at LMC MIC carefully review every application to reduce the possibility of non-performing loans. Furthermore, strict loan to value guidelines and a proactive approach to collections ensure enough equity is available to recover outstanding loan balances in case of foreclosure.

LMC MIC has a 12 month redemption period which commences from the month end of initial subscription. After the redemption period expires, an investor can withdraw their funds simply by advising us in writing so that a redemption notice received will be effective within 15 days of the end of the quarter following the quarter in which the redemption request is received. We also have a compassionate early redemption and death of shareholder policy which allows a surviving spouse to have the investment redeemed earlier than the normal maturity date. Please refer to Offering Memorandum for further detail.

For income tax purposes, the returns that our investors receive are treated as interest, not as dividends.

Investing using your registered accounts is easy, with our Partnerships with Plan Administrators like Olympia Trust and Western Pacific, we can assist with account opening and help facilitate your fund transfer requests.

Our investors can choose to take advantage of our automatic dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP) and gain the benefit of compounding their return. Alternatively our investors can receive their monthly dividends by direct deposit to a specified account.

No. Our underlying security is the Canadian real estate property against which we have mortgage charges and, in most cases, the personal guarantees of the owners of the property.

LMC MIC focuses on residential properties in urban and suburban areas in Ontario that are highly marketable. LMC MIC’s clients are mostly self-employed, new immigrants and borrowers with soft, poor or no credit. We mitigate the risk with our proprietary underwriting model.

The residential mortgage market surpassed $1.3 trillion dollars in 2016. It has been growing at an annual growth rate of 7% compounded every year for the last 10 years. The Banks and Trust Companies focus on the 80% of the market. Due to tighter restrictions by the regulators the Banks and Trust Companies have restricted their lending practices. This has created a larger opportunity for LMC.
