Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What do lenders look at first?
Typically the asset's cash flow, the sponsor's experience and liquidity, and the business plan - then loan-to-value, debt service coverage, and debt yield.
How long does a placement take?
Timelines vary by asset, lender type, and complexity. We outline a realistic schedule once we have reviewed the package.
Can you place construction or bridge loans?
Yes. We work with construction, bridge, and transitional lenders appropriate to the project's stage and sponsor.
Do you help with recourse and structure?
We help clients compare recourse, prepayment, reserves, and other terms - not just rate and proceeds.
