Program schedule:
Wednesday, March 30
Session 1: "Let's Get This Project Built - What's Market in Construction Lending Today?" - Construction finance requires an understanding of the project and the issues that concern the developer, as well as the lender's concerns and ways to mitigate the lender's risk. This panel will address construction loan checklists, zoning compliance, third-party construction agreements, mechanics' liens, the draw process and payment and completion guaranties.
Wednesday, April 13
Session 2: "It's All About the Money - Leases as Collateral" - This session will focus on leases from the lender's perspective. Because leases are the primary source of repayment for most commercial mortgage loans, the panel will discuss what's important to the lender and why.
Wednesday, May 18
Session 3: "Covenants in Mortgage Documents - More and More, Not Less" - Panelists in this session will discuss DSCR and LTV Ratios, transfer of equity interests in the borrowing entity, nonrecourse carve-outs, high volatility commercial real estate and HVCRE covenants and syndicated loans.
