We advise clients in financings and refinancings for property in all asset classes, including office, residential, retail, hotel, industrial, franchise, cooperative-owned and condominium properties, and at every finance stage, from loan origination and administration through refinancings, defaults, distressed loan workouts and loan payoff.
We have handled billions of dollars in financings, refinancings and troubled loan workouts for properties throughout the United States. From advising on the acquisition financing of 108 Leonard St., which was at the time the most expensive building ever sold by New York City, to the $2.2 billion refinance of Caesars Entertainment in Las Vegas, we have provided counsel on many of the most significant real estate projects in the nation.
