I'm talking about guys like PIMCO, not guys like Sam Zell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrStool Posted February 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 The guys who grew up in the real estate business buying and selling and developing property knew the deal. Even Trump. He just stole what he wanted up front from the so called professionals. The guys who ran OPM, with the MBAs from third rate Big 12 business schools, were all fucking idiots. Slick, glib, could justify anything they input into their DCFs stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Investment advisers who have to talk to their clients on the phone and meet them face to face from time to time are different than those clowns. You guys are the real deal, and I appreciate what you do. Especially if you are here. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrStool Posted February 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 These money managers who ran around buying single family homes when rates were zero were the worst. Greedy, venal mofos. They knew that these were terrible investments. They absolutely had to know. Of they had their heads so far up their asses, they didn't even know that they were digging in shit. What a disgrace.

sandy beach Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 The CMBS market is drying up. I believe volume is down 85% year-over-year from 29.4Billion to just $4.3 Billion. More defaults are coming in commercial real estate. No deals are getting done and existing deals can't flow without ZIRP and the Fed put. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrStool Posted February 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 It was so obvious. The only question is what took so long. The banks kept kicking the can and playing games to avoid recognizing the losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some lenders are making loans for residential real estate at a loss just to keep their market share. No worries - I'm sure they'll make it up in the volume!
