Course Overview:
The commercial property market has of course flourished over the last few decades and even after the recent credit crunch continues to be attractive to investors. As in many markets, the availability of debt finance is key to enabling investors to maximise returns.Yet lenders need to be more careful than ever to ensure that all risks are properly covered, and well-drafted legal documents are vital.
This Real Estate Finance course focuses on the loan and security documents for real estate finance.
It starts with an examination of the main property-related provisions of the Loan Market Association (LMA) model forms of property investment facility agreement and facility agreement for property development projects. That will be followed by a review of key provisions of the security documents. Finally it will explain the restrictions imposed to subordinate the equity funding.
This is a more advanced, document-focused course. An introductory course for those with little or no familiarity with real estate finance, ‘Introduction to Real Estate Finance legal aspects’, is also available.
