Why MLI Select

More Leverage. Lower Rates. Better Returns.

CMHC MLI Select is a points-based program that rewards affordable housing, energy efficiency, and accessibility โ€” giving qualifying Ontario rental projects access to superior financing terms.

๐Ÿ“ˆ

Higher LTV โ€” Up to 85%

Access significantly more leverage than conventional financing. MLI Select allows up to 85% loan-to-value on qualifying rental properties, reducing equity required.

๐Ÿ“…

50-Year Amortization

Extend your amortization up to 50 years โ€” dramatically reducing monthly debt service and improving cash-on-cash returns across your portfolio.

๐Ÿ’ฐ

Below-Market Insured Rates

CMHC-insured mortgages carry the lowest rates available in Canada. MLI Select properties qualify for insured pricing well below conventional commercial rates.

โ™ป๏ธ

Energy Efficiency Bonuses

Properties achieving energy efficiency targets earn bonus MLI Select points โ€” unlocking higher LTV tiers and premium financing terms.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Affordable Housing Points

Dedicating a portion of units to affordable rents earns significant points under the MLI Select scoring model, improving your eligibility tier.
