construction financing in Rimouski prices off the Government of Canada 5-year benchmark bond yield plus a 375 bps construction financing spread, landing at 6.90% indicative. Draw-based debt funding hard and soft costs through to occupancy.

Leverage binds before coverage here. The wide 7.4% cap rate produces roughly $96,200 of NOI, enough for $1,144,563 at a 1.00x floor — about $299,563 above what the 65% LTV cap will advance. The deal is sized by value, so the appraisal, not the rent roll, is the document to get right first.

ActQuestions
What rate should I expect on construction financing in Rimouski?
6.90% indicative — the Government of Canada 5-year benchmark bond yield plus a 375 bps construction financing spread. Individual quotes move with covenant strength, asset quality, and sponsor track record, and Rimouski's deep lender market widens or narrows that dispersion.
How large a loan does a typical Rimouski deal support?
On the $1,300,000 average transaction, a 65% advance is $845,000. Coverage separately caps the loan at $1,144,563 using $96,200 of NOI against a 1.00x floor, so the binding number is $845,000.
Does coverage or leverage bind first on this product in Rimouski?
Leverage. NOI supports about $1,144,563, more than the 65% LTV cap will advance, so proceeds are set by the appraisal rather than the rent roll.
Why is the coverage floor only 1.00x?
Insurance or structural credit support lets construction financing clear at a lower coverage floor than conventional term debt. It buys proceeds, not safety: at 6.90% the deal still breaks coverage near 10.56%.
What is the annual debt service at that loan amount?
$71,022 per year — $5,919 monthly on a 0-year amortization at 6.90%, against a 2-year term.
How much rate headroom is there before the deal breaks coverage?
Roughly 3.66%. Holding the loan and NOI constant, coverage reaches the 1.00x floor at about 10.56% — the number that matters at renewal.
How many lenders write this product in Rimouski?
