Buying Distressed Loans: Finding Opportunity Where Others See Risk with Michael Moreno, Partner at Safe Harbor Capital Partners. We discuss: • How Safe Harbor acquires non-performing loans from banks and works to transform them into performing assets, creating value for both investors and borrowers. • How today's distressed debt market compares to the Global Financial Crisis—and why this cycle looks fundamentally different. • One of the most important underwriting metrics when evaluating a loan acquisition: the relationship between the purchase price of the loan and the underlying property's value. • Why double-digit year-over-year increases in loan defaults are creating new investment opportunities and what they signal for commercial real estate going forward.
