Servicing & Special Servicing

With looming loan maturities, a higher interest rate environment, and a downward pressure on valuations across asset classes, servicers and special servicers require dynamic counsel to effectively address borrower demands and achieve competitive resolutions.

HOW WE HELP

Seyfarth’s Servicing & Special Servicing team represents a wide variety of loan servicers—including commercial mortgage backed securities (CMBS), Freddie Mac and collateralized loan obligations (CLO) securitizations for special servicers, master servicers, and sub-servicers. We also assist servicers and mezzanine servicers with servicing arrangements for Fannie Mae, life company, warehouse lending, and other finance facilities. Our priority—seamlessly addressing issues that impact our clients across securitization, tax, securities, regulation, asset management, loan modifications, new loan origination, workouts, foreclosures, insolvency, and litigation.

Notably, we dedicate a significant amount of time to assisting clients in reviewing, managing, negotiating, and documenting borrower requests related to warehouse loans, portfolio loans, CMBS, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac’s Multifamily Securitization (K Series) program, while ensuring compliance with all applicable servicing standards and tax rules.

A testament to our high regard in the marketplace, we represent many of the largest commercial real estate servicers and special servicers in the US, including several among the top 10.
