WEBINAR DETAILS
Commercial and residential real estate loan problems appear to be on the rise. There are several alternatives to consider when dealing with troubled commercial and residential real estate loans, including workouts, forbearance, deeds in lieu, short sales, and foreclosures.

This webinar will explain all aspects, risks, and proper steps for each alternative so you can properly evaluate which is best for each situation. It will also explain the legal and compliance rules that apply to commercial and residential real estate foreclosures, including the special rules when dealing with residential property.
