Canopy’s senior management team has significant industry knowledge and a proven track record in land acquisition, finance, planning, construction, sales, marketing, procurement and operational expertise.

The growing breadth and diversity of Canopy Corporation’s interests and holdings allows it to offer investment opportunities to third party investors. Our strategy is to partner our expertise with sophisticated investors who understand the value of real estate investment. Our objective is to provide high return opportunities to both individual and institutional investors.

Investors will have an opportunity to invest in different projects and, in some cases, be entitled to rollover investments in one project to future projects. In condominium and resort projects investors may have the opportunity to convert their returns into the purchase of property within the project.

Background
Canopy’s investment focus is in residential and commercial development with a particular interest in prime waterfront and recreational projects. Currently, we are building a development portfolio in one of the emerging markets in the Province of Ontario, a growing region that stretches east from Oshawa to Kingston, with particular interest in the counties of Hastings, Prince Edward, Northumberland and Quinte West. Our knowledge and experience in this region provides us with a distinct advantage and we have major holdings in Quinte West and Prince Edward County. We are expanding our inventory of land in order to maintain a portfolio of approved plans of subdivision that can be brought on stream.

Investment Opportunities

Currently, there are two investment opportunities available for participation:

1) We are establishing a fund to acquire prime properties in the promising market of Prince Edward County and Quinte West. The growing interest in the recreational attraction of Prince Edward County – one of the country’s flourishing wine regions – is transforming into a strong housing market fueled by the boomer market. Housing starts are expected to grow steadily through to 2015.

 

2) The commercial component of the Village of Young Cove will be coming on stream in 2010 and it will include an inn and spa, banquet centre, wine boutique. A limited partnership will be established to allow investor to participate.

 

The investment structure and capital for each project is tailored to the nature of the project through limited partnerships, joint ventures, mezzanine financing, loan guarantees and equity participation.
