What Goes Into An Underwriting?

The Rainmaker approach is truly a comprehensive assessment with 66 exhibits collected on every project that cover every aspect of the development, construction, operations and regulatory matters.  Collateral, credit and capacity underwriting reviews are conducted using CREFC underwriting standards in addition to a complete default risk analysis on term, maturity and technical default risk profiles.  Our typical underwriting report on a new construction project will easily exceed 500 pages and catalogue all transaction documents, plans and specifications.
