Want to get a comprehensive look at CRE lending and appraisals in a two-day program? Here it is. The first day will cover key analytical concepts in evaluating real estate cash flow and related non-financial factors or risks. It also explores where to find information from existing sources, such as tax returns, and what additional information may be needed, such as customer rent rolls. We’ll demonstrate stress-testing of your cash flow results, plus how to use a capitalization (cap) rate along with those results to make an important estimate of current value. As a final step, we’ll cover key issues with commercial lease structures.

The second day is devoted to reviewing and interpreting property appraisal. Fundamental principles and features of commercial appraisals are covered, as well as the primary analytical techniques such as net operating income (NOI) for basic, income-producing properties. This class will also provide an overview of the 2010 Interagency Appraisal and Evaluation Guidelines and the 2018 Frequently Asked Questions on the Appraisal Regulations and the Interagency Appraisal and Evaluation Guidelines, with tips for integrating the Guidelines and FAQs into your existing policies, plus other practical issues that banks face, including a brief look at high volatility CRE (HVCRE).

Commercial Real Estate Seminar OnDemand with Live Streaming has been submitted to ABA Professional Certifications for CE credit review and is pending approval. Once we receive notification of the credit approval, we will notify attendees.
