commercial mortgage in Ajax prices off the Government of Canada 5-year benchmark bond yield plus a 190 bps commercial mortgage spread, landing at 5.05% indicative. Conventional term debt on stabilized income-producing commercial property.

Coverage binds before leverage here. At a mid-band 5.6% cap rate the asset throws off roughly $190,400 of NOI, which supports $2,160,542 at the 1.25x floor — about $219,458 below the 70% LTV ceiling. Underwrite to the coverage number and treat the LTV cap as a secondary test, or bring the gap in equity.

ActQuestions

What rate should I expect on commercial mortgage in Ajax?

5.05% indicative — the Government of Canada 5-year benchmark bond yield plus a 190 bps commercial mortgage spread. Individual quotes move with covenant strength, asset quality, and sponsor track record, and Ajax's deep lender market widens or narrows that dispersion.

How large a loan does a typical Ajax deal support?

On the $3,400,000 average transaction, a 70% advance is $2,380,000. Coverage separately caps the loan at $2,160,542 using $190,400 of NOI against a 1.25x floor, so the binding number is $2,160,542.

Does coverage or leverage bind first on this product in Ajax?

Coverage. The 5.6% cap rate leaves the DSCR test binding roughly $219,458 below the 70% LTV ceiling, so extra appraised value will not buy extra proceeds.

What is the annual debt service at that loan amount?

$167,792 per year — $13,983 monthly on a 25-year amortization at 5.05%, against a 5-year term.

How much rate headroom is there before the deal breaks coverage?

Roughly 0.00%. Holding the loan and NOI constant, coverage reaches the 1.25x floor at about 4.10% — the number that matters at renewal.

How many lenders write this product in Ajax?

Capitalor tracks 11 active lenders and brokers in Ajax, a Lender Density Score of 100 against 2,900 commercial buildings — a deep market.

Is this pricing a quote?

No. It is an index benchmark published for comparison, not an offer of credit. Capitalor does not originate, broker, or place debt.
