FAQ Regarding Bond Street Capital

Who is Bond Street Capital?

Bond Street Capital is a commercial real estate lender with its production center in New York and administrative headquarters in Los Angeles. The principals of Bond Street are Barry Reiner and Joseph Forman. Bond Street originates loans through 65 professionals operating out of 34 Branch Offices.

Where are Bond Street Branch Offices located?

Bond Street has Branch Offices located in most major cities and provides loans throughout the United States and Canada.

What differentiates Bond Street from other lenders?

Bond Street is built from the ground up upon the principle that borrowers are best served working with loan officers located near the property or borrower and with the home office located at the heart of the capital markets. The Branch Offices are staffed with loan professionals who have specific local market knowledge. This knowledge can be invaluable to the success of the transaction. When you mix these two elements with Bond Street's state of the art technology and diversified loan programs, the end result is tremendous loan execution capabilities.

What does Bond Street mean when it says that it is a "commercial loan origination platform"?

Bond Street originates loans not only for its own account but for a variety of institutional investors as well. Investors have long faced the dilemma of how to obtain quality loans on a cost effective basis. The alternatives of purchasing loans in the secondary market or opening branch offices can be very unattractive to an institutional real estate lender. Bond Street offers the alternative of nationwide loan origination through its proprietary Branch Office system on an "order basis." That is, an investor can define exactly the kinds of loan assets it wants to acquire and the terms it wants to acquire them on. The investor can specify loan sizes, locations, product types, etc.

What benefit does the Bond Street "platform" provide for the Borrower?

Most lenders only offer a single type of loan product. One of our goals is to offer a loan program suitable for every borrower. Our objective is to offer not only the standard loan products but unique programs as well. Since our "platform" provides an effective way for investors to acquire quality loans funded by Bond Street, we are able to offer the widest variety of loan programs of almost any lender in the market.

What other advantages does Bond Street offer over other lenders?

Bond Street's growing Branch Office system insures the borrower that a Bond Street professional, with local market knowledge, is there to assist in the management, processing and closing of your loan. Understanding local market conditions and having a loan professional available when needed insures the borrower of the best possible loan execution. When this professional has the support of the lending team located in New York with direct access to the capital markets, you have an unbeatable combination. Borrowers get the benefit of loan programs and professional deal management unmatched by any other lender.

Is Bond Street competitive?

Of course! Bond Street's nationwide loan origination capability and state of the art technology enables it to compete on most transactions with any other lender in the country.

What are the backgrounds of the principals?

Mr. Reiner is the former managing director of First Union Capital Markets group. The First Union CMBS group originated over $11 billion in commercial and multi-family financing and was ranked #1 nationally in 1999 and 2000 under Reiner's direction. Mr. Forman is also a former banker who has functioned since 1989 as the CEO of the RainMaker Financial Companies and it's affiliated entities. As a grass roots loan originator, Mr. Forman formed RainMaker Financial Affiliates to provide financial institutions with the means to source quality loans from independent commercial mortgage originators. RainMaker Financial Affiliates has grown from six mortgage brokers and one lender to a mortgage broker network with over 1,400 members originating loans for over 25 client lenders.
