owner-occupied financing in Quebec City prices off the Government of Canada 5-year benchmark bond yield plus a 210 bps owner-occupied financing spread, landing at 5.25% indicative. Debt underwritten on business cash flow rather than third-party rent. On the $3,400,000 average Quebec City transaction, a 75% advance is $2,550,000, carrying $206,196 of annual debt service on a 20-year amortization and a 5-year term.
Coverage binds before leverage here. At a mid-band 6.0% cap rate the asset throws off roughly $204,000 of NOI, which supports $2,018,271 at the 1.25x floor — about $531,729 below the 75% LTV ceiling. Underwrite to the coverage number and treat the LTV cap as a secondary test, or bring the gap in equity.
Quebec City scores 100 on the Capitalor Lender Density Score — a deep market, with 36 tracked lenders and brokers against 13,900 commercial buildings. Expect competitive tension on well-covenanted paper: quote at least three lenders before accepting a spread.

ActQuestions
What rate should I expect on owner-occupied financing in Quebec City?
5.25% indicative — the Government of Canada 5-year benchmark bond yield plus a 210 bps owner-occupied financing spread. Individual quotes move with covenant strength, asset quality, and sponsor track record, and Quebec City's deep lender market widens or narrows that dispersion.
How large a loan does a typical Quebec City deal support?
On the $3,400,000 average transaction, a 75% advance is $2,550,000. Coverage separately caps the loan at $2,018,271 using $204,000 of NOI against a 1.25x floor, so the binding number is $2,018,271.
Does coverage or leverage bind first on this product in Quebec City?
Coverage. The 6.0% cap rate leaves the DSCR test binding roughly $531,729 below the 75% LTV ceiling, so extra appraised value will not buy extra proceeds.
What is the annual debt service at that loan amount?
$206,196 per year — $17,183 monthly on a 20-year amortization at 5.25%, 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 2.57% — the number that matters at renewal.
How many lenders write this product in Quebec City?
Capitalor tracks 36 active lenders and brokers in Quebec City, a Lender Density Score of 100 against 13,900 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.
