The commercial real estate industry is fast-paced and ever-changing, making it a priority for lenders to understand their risk prior to closing. Banks and private lenders are required to perform certain levels of due diligence research on parties involved in a real estate transaction before providing funds.
Since there can be both U.S. and foreign borrowers, it’s important to remain vigilant of criminal activity, such as money laundering or fraud, as well as have a thorough understanding of their financial stability, including any public record filings or derogatory credit history.
