The Handbook of Real Estate Lending

In The Handbook of Real Estate Lending, mortgage banking expert Kathleen Sindell, Ph.D., provides a must-have real estate loan management reference book and introduces the Lending Solutions Decision Support Program. This program assists you in organizing and consolidating mortgage loan information, allowing you to effectively track current loans while accurately analyzing each real estate loan's strengths and weaknesses before you commit your bank's assets. Readers who review and implement this program will be able to calculate a numerical risk score for each loan in the portfolio that can be compared to your optimal baseline; complete meaningful monthly problem loan reports, each with a blueprint of the most effective, complete action plan possible; make unbiased and error-free loan assessments based on a new knowledge acquisition process; create comprehensive analyses of each loan's strengths and weaknesses; prepare graphs that show each loan's performance trends; forecast potential loan performance and quantitatively relate your judgments of future loan trends; and deliver pro-active, instead of re-active, action plans that demonstrate why your recommendation is the best one possible.
