  • Construction lenders with respect to ground-up or expansion projects utilizing single tiers of promissory notes and/or A/B/mezz loan structures
  • Bridge lenders with respect to transitional properties
  • Originating lenders or note purchasers with respect to syndicated mortgage loan transactions, including negotiation of note purchases and co-lender agreements
  • Senior lenders, mezzanine lenders, or preferred equity investors with respect to projects involving multiple-tiered ground leases, Delaware statutory trusts, condominiums, tenant-in-common and other legal structures
  • Lenders, servicers and borrowers with respect to loan modifications, workouts and forbearance arrangements

Search Tips:

You may use the wildcard symbol (*) as a root expander.  A search for "anti*" will find not only "anti", but also "anti-trust", "antique", etc.

Entering two terms together in a search field will behave as though an "OR" is being used.  For example, entering "Antique Motorcars" as a Client Name search will find results with either word in the Client Name.

Operators

AND and OR may be used in a search.  Note: they must be capitalized, e.g., "Project AND Finance." 

The + and - sign operators may be used.  The + sign indicates that the term immediately following is required, while the - sign indicates to omit results that contain that term. E.g., "+real -estate" says results must have "real" but not "estate".

To perform an exact phrase search, surround your search phrase with quotation marks.  For example, "Project Finance".

Searches are not case sensitive.
