Testimonials

“Shlomo's years of experience in the CMBS field has helped many borrowers/guarantors facing exposure to recourse liability navigate though this minefield resulting in loan modifications and discounted payoffs (when that option was available) that staved off foreclosures/ receiverships and the resulting loss of equity for investors. He is definitely the expert”
