Did you know LEAGUE's offerings are eligible for your RRSP, TFSA, RESP and RRIF?

One of the most important points to keep in mind when accumulating Intergenerational WealthTM is ensuring your investments are as tax-efficient as possible.

This involves not only reducing the amount of income tax you must pay, but also deferring tax payments where you can, by using saving vehicles like Registered Retirement Savings Plans (RRSPs).

LEAGUE's traditional REIT units and the REIT's Income Priority (IP) units give you the best of both worlds. First, they've been carefully structured to be extremely tax-efficient. And secondly, they're eligible for your RRSP and other tax-deferred plans -- such as Registered Retirement Income Funds (RRIFs), Registered Education Savings Plans (RESPs) and Locked-in Retirement Accounts (LIRAs), as well as Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSAs).

Have you made your RRSP contribution yet?

The deadline for your 2011 RRSP contribution is February 29. If you have yet to make that contribution, or if you already have and are thinking about your 2012 contribution, have you considered the benefits of having LEAGUE investments within your RRSP? LEAGUE IGW REIT traditional or IP units can be part of any of the aforementioned tax-deferred plans. And with a +10% annual return since inception in 2007, the LEAGUE IGW REIT can be a important component of your retirement planning.

To learn more about how you can take maximum advantage of tax-deferred plans by placing LEAGUE investments inside them, speak with your Member Services Manager. In fact, now that a new year has begun, it's a good idea to have that discussion in the context of an annual portfolio "check-up" - just to make sure your LEAGUE investments continue to match your needs. For example, if you've just had a major life event like a marriage, birth of a child or an employment change, you may want to adjust your balance between growth and cash flow.

Remember, when you speak with one of our Member Services Managers there's no obligation and no cost. These experts just want to help you make the best decisions you can, given your unique needs and circumstances.
