The M&A market has peaked, but will the lending market soon follow? Find out from the experts.
Have you noticed that it is getting just a little bit harder to obtain financing for your acquisition or new development? We have heard that it is getting more difficult to get to the closing table for acquisitions, and we have wondered if the lending market has been one of the reasons. Financing has been abundant and cheap for several years, with many alternatives. But after a six-year bull market, and people talking about a real estate bubble propped up by historically low interest rates, some lenders may be getting a little pickier about who and what they finance, and how they structure the loan.
Are you feeling the pinch, just a little? Are you wondering how long the financing market will stay buoyant? Do you want to know what lenders think about the market today, and whether now is the time to borrow? If so, please join me next week as I moderate a panel of lenders to go over these topics and much more, including bridge financing, acquisition and development financing options, and sale leaseback financing. See you on October 27.
