    [00:00 - 06:55] Don't Get in Trouble in Real Estate

    • The real estate industry is still strong, and deals are promising, but pay attention to your expenses

    • Lenders hold the purse strings, so treat them with respect

    • As long as you don't run out of time or money in a deal, you won’t have any problems

    • Leveraging long-term debt options have less risk

     

    [06:56 - 08:53] The Types of Debt in Commercial Real Estate Investing

    • Agency debt is the safest type of debt, with a fixed rate and non-recourse loan for five to twelve years

    • Recourse fixed-rate debt is slightly higher on leverage, with four to ten-year loans and collateralization of other assets

    • Bridge debt is designed for projects not ready for long-term debt, with two to three-year loans and one or two one-year extensions

     

    [08:54 - 19:33] The Danger Zone: Missed Covenants, Lender Funding, and Rate Caps

    • The biggest thing about bridge debt is that you're not in control of your money; the lenders are

    • You have to budget your cash tightly when using bridge debt

    • Lenders can get nervous if don’t comply with their covenants and refuse to fund your draws

    • This will lead to a cash problem; you’ll have time but you'll run out of money

    • Rate caps are time-sensitive and require some planning

    • Exit is everything and lenders are worried if they will be able to get repaid

    • Watch out for the unknown unknowns; floating rate loans have different rules than fixed-rate loans and can be more unpredictable

     

    [19:34 - 21:15] Go into Deals with Eyes Wide Open

    • Bridge debt can be a great tool if used correctly

    • Understand  the terms and conditions of the loan and assess your ability to meet the requirements



    Quotes:

     

    “Your lender is your biggest investor and they have the most teeth in the deal.”  - Chad Sutton

     

    “You only get in trouble in real estate if two things happen: if you run out of time on your deal or you run out of money on your deal.” - Chad Sutton

     

    “Most fixed-rate loans and recourse fixed-rate loans, pretty predictable. The rules are mostly the same. But with variable rate loans, these are usually debt funds and the rules are all different. And so your unknown unknowns, what you don't know can hurt you here.”  - Chad Sutton
