Private Mortgage Capital · Toronto & the GTA

Institutional scale. Entrepreneurial speed.

The scale of our appetite to fund residential mortgages knows no limit. When traditional financing reaches its limits, opportunities shouldn’t — so we fund first mortgages up to $30 million, backed by a world-class capital source. Underwritten in-house, never shopped, and answered with the responsiveness of an entrepreneur.

Part of the Peerage family

The backing of an institution. The instincts of an entrepreneur.

Peerage Mortgage Capital is part of Peerage Capital — a diversified North American investment firm with businesses spanning real estate, wealth management and alternative financing.

Not every borrower fits inside a bank’s lending box. We exist to provide practical, relationship-first solutions — entrepreneurial decisions made by the people who fund them, with the stability and permanence of a much larger ecosystem behind every commitment.

01
Real Estate

Among North America’s leading residential real estate groups.

02
Wealth Management

Advisory and asset management for families and institutions.

03
Alternative Financing

Private capital solutions — including Peerage Mortgage Capital.

Why Peerage

Common-sense lending, decided by the people who fund it.

Private mortgages can be overwhelming. Our job is to make them easy to understand, transparent, and fair — for your client and for you.

01
Direct lender

No middlemen. You deal directly with the decision-makers on every file.

02
Underwritten in-house

Every deal is reviewed by our own team of experts and never shopped out.

03
Low lender fees

Cutting out the middle keeps fees down and turnaround times fast.

04
Flexible terms

Every deal is unique. We structure solutions, not one-size-fits-all boxes.

Why Peerage vs the alternatives

A different model from banks and traditional private lenders.

Close on the new home before the old one sells.

About Peerage Mortgage Capital

Our obsession is the customer.

We give brokers, agents and borrowers the best service and solutions we can offer — and we make private lending easy to understand, transparent and fair.

Why we exist

Private lending has a reputation for being opaque, slow and transactional. We built Peerage Mortgage Capital to be the opposite — a direct lender that treats brokers as partners, gives straight answers fast, and prices fairly because we underwrite every deal ourselves.

Backed by Peerage Capital Group, we bring institutional strength and a long-term view to a corner of the market that too often lacks both. That backing lets us say yes to the complex, move at the speed a deal demands, and stand behind our commitments — deal after deal.

A direct lender

We're a direct lender, which means deals are underwritten in-house and never “shopped.” That keeps lender fees low and turnaround times fast — and it means you always deal directly with the people who say yes.

Common sense

Every deal is unique. As common-sense lenders, we have many different options to help our customers find positive solutions and outcomes — rather than forcing every file into the same box.

Built to move

Quotes within two hours. Commitment letters within ninety minutes. Funding in 36–48 hours when a deal demands it. Speed isn't a slogan — it's how our process is built.

What we believe
Trust

Earned every day, through straight answers and commitments we keep.

Judgment

We read the whole story, not just a score, and lend with common sense.

Speed

Time kills deals. Our process is built to move faster than the market.

Partnership

Your client stays yours. We’re here to make you look good.

Part of Peerage Capital Group

A family of premier companies built on trust, judgment and the long view — partnering with leading entrepreneurs across real estate, wealth and beyond.

Miles S. Nadal
Miles S. Nadal
Founder & Executive Chairman · Peerage Capital Group

I started my first business in 1980, when I was 22. There have been a tremendous number of technological and other changes since that time, but one early lesson has been repeatedly reinforced over 40-plus years: you are only as strong and as successful as the people around you.

My faith in the power of human capital has only grown stronger over time. That is why it is foundational to Peerage Capital. All of us are deeply committed to the partnership model. We partner with entrepreneurs who have built successful businesses and experienced teams, and we pull together the customized resources that will optimize their performance and their growth. It may not always be the easiest way to proceed, but it is the best way we know to build – and to scale – long-term resilience in any enterprise.

Fundamentally, at the root of these relationships are mutual trust and respect. All of us at Peerage endeavour to earn both of those things every day — and we are privileged to have that opportunity.
