Defeasance and Interest Rate Hedging Services
Preferred Partner PRogram
Defeasance That Keeps Deals Moving
When a sale or refinance requires defeasance, borrowers need an accurate view of the cost and a clear path to closing. We coordinate the parties and work directly with the servicer and its counsel to meet the requirements of the loan. Our proprietary technology, live trading data, and direct trader relationships help borrowers understand their costs and secure competitive pricing on replacement securities. Our team has handled complex defeasances under tight closing timelines, including multi-property deals, and knows how to keep the process on track.
Hedging Strategies for Interest Rate Risk
Our team helps borrowers evaluate existing hedges and structure solutions for new debt based on what they need to accomplish and the risk they’re looking to manage. We model and price transactions in-house using live market data, giving clients access to the same information and tools used by the banks and lenders they transact with. Our services include:
- Interest rate cap auctions on bridge and construction debt
- Interest rate swap negotiations on term debt
- Hedging refinance risk on a forward basis
- Ongoing monitoring of derivative positions
- Interest rate swap terminations
From initial analysis through execution, our team works on the borrower’s behalf to secure competitive pricing and terms.
