Moving great real estate ideas from plans to reality requires creative and innovative financing delivered timely and responsibly to the needs of borrowers, lenders and investors. Goulston & Storrs’ Real Estate Finance Group plays a critical role in the structuring and delivery of these funds for its clients. Construction loans, conventional permanent mortgage loans, participating mortgages, mezzanine financing, tax-exempt and taxable credit-enhanced bond financings, private placement financings and government-assisted financings, to name a few, are transactions regularly managed by the Real Estate Finance Group. Many of these transactions include complicated multi-creditor issues and intricate arrangements with public agencies and authorities.
Developers and owners of real estate, affordable housing lenders, national banks, investment banks, Wall Street investment firms, major insurance companies, publicly-traded funds and regional savings banks throughout the US benefit from the extensive experience of our Real Estate Finance Practice. The firm serves as counsel to entities in their purchase and sale of loan pools and portfolios, as well as in the establishment of funds to make debt and equity investments.
Our group counsels clients on construction and permanent financing and refinancing of raw land, office buildings, industrial parks, hotels, strip shopping centers, regional malls, apartment complexes, office parks and residential and commercial condominiums and cooperatives. Additionally, we assist with securitized financings, mezzanine financings, loan syndications, bridge financing, convertible and participating debt transactions and sale leasebacks. |
