Session Description:
Lenders face a fundamental problem in life: the math, from the onset, favors the borrower. This is nowhere better displayed than in real estate transactions, where most debt is non-recourse and secured at the property level. Much legal work in a real estate transaction can be viewed as an effort to make up for and possibly invert the inherent disadvantages of the lender. This session aims to provide an intuitive, practical understanding of the role of option theory in structuring and valuing the positions of borrowers and lenders.
