Repeatable processes built on a foundation of core principles.
With many stocks, bonds, and GICs offering a minuscule return on investment, mortgage-based investments are a viable option for investors seeking an improved fixed return.
Frontenac provides an income-producing vehicle that is well-diversified with real asset security. By investing in Frontenac, you gain access to a pool of over 550 mortgages in the stable residential real estate market of Ontario.
With expertise and experience, we aim to provide a 5% to 7% return that’s not directly correlated with interest rate or equity volatility.
A historically constant net asset value (NAV) of $30 over the past 35 years has enabled us to generate this return while preserving capital.
