Protecting Lender Interests
Commercial real estate lenders, whether dealing with office, residential, or industrial assets, have faced and will continue to face loan defaults. When a loan defaults, lenders typically have two options:
- Allow the existing borrower to continue managing the property.
- Appoint receivers and/or administrators through an enforcement process to sell the collateral and repay the loan.
Banks, despite having sophisticated underwriting teams, primarily focus on lending money, not asset management. While they excel in assessing credit risk and structuring loans, they typically lack the necessary skills required to navigate the challenges brought on by distressed borrowers (i.e. need for enhanced oversight), enforcement or managing receivers and administrators for maximizing asset value post-enforcement. This gap highlights the complexities lenders face in asset recovery and management.
