Gregg Gerken, Head of Commercial Real Estate for TD Bank

By Gregg Gerken, Head of Commercial Real Estate for TD Bank Even prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was a struggle to build or find affordable housing. But since the pandemic broke out, finding affordable housing may be even harder for those who now need it most. A Problem Made Worse by a Global Pandemic The lack of affordable housing was an urban, suburban and rural problem even before COVID-19. Rent-burdened families and seniors living on a budget reside in almost every small and large city in America. While the $600 per month unemployment payments, stimulus checks and extension of eviction moratoriums have helped, the bottom line is that those most affected by COVID-19 financially still have the longest road to recovery and need more assistance – especially affordable housing – to get back on their feet. The Tenant Versus Landlord Narrative Multifamily housing renters are trying hard to make rent, but some just can’t, and that hardship then tilts onto landlords who are trying to cover payroll, taxes, utilities, upkeep and mortgages. The looming crisis now is that millions of renters are behind on their rent with approximately $70 billion due in back payments that could create a wave …

Ralph Cram Net Lease Envoy

Ralph Cram, president and manager of Envoy Net Lease Partners LLC, is responsible for providing strategy, marketing and investment advice on all aspects of net lease property investments. He believes 2021 will be a banner year for net lease, and that Envoy is particularly well suited when it comes to providing “one-stop shopping” for developers. Finance Insight: How is Envoy is different from a “normal” commercial real estate finance provider? Cram: Envoy’s focus is construction and bridge loan lending on single-tenant, net-lease properties in most commercial real estate segments such as retail, restaurant, medical and industrial properties. What differentiates us from most lenders is that first and foremost, Envoy can lend up to 100 percent of the total project costs. A developer receives all the project’s capital from one source without having to take on outside investors and time-consuming joint-venture (JV) and related agreements. Envoy’s “one-stop shopping” allows developers to concentrate on what they do best and provides the entirety of financing and other capital considerations for a given project. Second, the only thing we do is lend on net-lease properties, so we are experts. We don’t do an apartment loan one day and a PPP loan the next. We don’t leave, enter and then re-exit the net-lease market and …
