Documenting a complex loan without the right support can be a logistical nightmare. Recently, a California-based Lender encountered this challenge with a portfolio bridge loan.
This blog post dives into how GoDocs helped them navigate this complex situation and streamline their loan closing process.
The Problem
A major Lender in California was working with a loan that involved a portfolio bridge loan which consisted of 15 mortgages. All mortgages in this package would be cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized. This approach would ensure that the Lender was properly protected if any of the mortgages were to default or have collateral issues. The remaining 14 mortgages would be in place to protect the Lender’s position and mitigate risk exposure.
Historically, complex transactions like this inundated the Lender with paperwork, leading to inefficiencies and frustrations. The General Counsel at the Lender characterized these transactions as “very chaotic from a document side.”
The Solution
Seeking to enhance their complex loan documentation process, the Lender partnered with GoDocs to transform their loan document preparation. GoDocs automated all the necessary documents for this intricate transaction, ensuring appropriate cross-referencing to mitigate risks effectively. The user-friendly, cloud-based platform facilitated the assembly of documents clause-by-clause, tailored to transaction terms, thus ensuring alignment with the lender’s requirements.
