Commercial Real Estate Debt Restructuring

By Steve Huntley and Mark Richardson
August 23, 2013

For real estate bankruptcy law practices, there is significant opportunity in distressed real estate. Actually, the opportunity is enormous: At the end of 2012, U.S. commercial real estate debt was estimated to have reached $3.6 trillion. Approximately 10% of the total will mature each year for the next five years. Most of the $350 billion in debt coming due annually to 2017 originated in the early part of the decade. And much of that debt will not be able to be refinanced, causing a maturity default. To restructure loans experiencing maturity defaults effectively, the business, finance, and legal sectors must collaborate in a field that is as much art as it is science.
