This statement is both wrong and irresponsible. Commercial real estate financing (nationwide) was my career before I retired.

Please tell me the name of one banker that refused to work with a borrower and cite the amount of this "alleged" bonus. What is the name of the commercial property in the Detroit area that was written off? A few facts please.

During my career I worked out plenty of loans when I thought the borrower was not at fault. But if I thought the borrower was part of the problem, such as pocketing rent money instead of fixing the place up to make it nice for the tenants then I took the remedies available under the loan documents.

Remember this thread is about the Packard Plant and what Fernando Palazuelo is doing with it.
