Real Estate Investing In Canada

Diverse Investments

LEAGUE has a diverse array of investment opportunities that are intended to appreciate in value and provide tax-efficient income. Our ultimate aim is to produce and maintain Intergenerational Wealth for the families of our Member-Partners.

To ensure the stability of any investment, all members of the group should share the same investment expectations. It stands to reason, therefore, that syndications should be structured differently for those with different investment goals.

For instance, an investor who is looking for immediate high cash flow from a portfolio of established properties should not be in the same group as one who prefers to invest in the construction of a new project that will produce no cash flow at the start, but will offer a higher probability of capital appreciation later on. One investment cannot satisfy both investors.

To meet the requirements of both these investors, different syndication structures have been established.

Overview

LEAGUE currently is managing some $920 million in real estate assets, and is responsible for the financing of what are estimated to become $2 billion in assets on behalf of the families of more than 2,500 Member-Partners. The IGW REIT features an impressive track record of stable distributions: Since its inception in 2004, it never has missed a single one of its monthly payments.

In addition to the IGW REIT’s pool of properties, LEAGUE manages a number of single-property limited partnerships, including its flagship development in Victoria’s western communities, Colwood City Centre LP, a new urban hub on Vancouver Island.

Another groundbreaking project is Eagle Landing Retail Centre LP in Chilliwack, BC, a joint venture with the Squiala First Nation that may become the largest shopping and entertainment complex in British Columbia.

LEAGUE also recently broke new ground in a different area when it acquired an indirect interest in Charter Real Estate Investment Trust, a public REIT that has 10 retail properties in Ontario and Quebec. Additionally, through an affiliate company, an affiliate of LEAGUE has also entered into an asset management agreement with Charter.
