MORTGAGE
STUFF (C-Loans.com Client Letter) Joke
Du Jour
An
old man was critically ill. Feeling that death was
near, he called his lawyer.
"I want to become a lawyer. How much is it for the
express degree you told
me about?" "It's
$50,000," the lawyer said. "But why? You'll be dead
soon. Why do you
want to become a lawyer?" "That's
my business! Get me the course!"
Four
days later, the old man got his law degree. His lawyer was

is Structured Finance?
Think
of structured finance as custom-made commercial loans.
The lender might go interest-only for two years and then
begin to amortize the deal over 25 years. The lender
may add an earn-out, where the
lender agrees to loan more money if the developer fills
his building. Maybe the lender thows a mezzanine loan
(sort of like a high LTV second mortgage) on top of the
first mortgage. It is these custom features that are
the hallmark of structured finance.
Frisbee
Joke
The
other day I was standing in the park wondering why Frisbees
get bigger and bigger the closer they get ... then it hit
me.
