Receivership

What is a Receiver or Receivership?

A receiver is a court-appointed individual who is granted custodial responsibilities of a property that serves as the collateral for the loan in default. A receiver essentially assumes the responsibilities of the owning property manager and as the owner has authority over operations and management of the property in foreclosure. This authority is granted by the courts to properties in distress.

Why Hire a Receiver

For lenders, commercial loan defaults and protecting the distressed assets often are remedied by one of the following four; Deeds in lieu, Foreclosure, Workout/Note Sale, and Receiverships. Receiverships are becoming a more common solution for properties in default (or technical default on their loan). Receivers are often the most cost-effective and efficient way to handle property in distress and they can often recoup potential lost revenue and rental steam, prepare the property for sale, and use their market experience to list and sell the property.

Benefits of A Receiver

Commercial receivership Receivership for commercial real estate is more than just collecting rents throughout the sometimes lengthy foreclosure process. The Great Recession of 2007 did more than just shock the world; it forced countless owners to default on their loans, sending some investors into foreclosure and filing bankruptcy. The default and foreclosure process can take up to 6 months and even longer. The need for innovation and expediting the process is needed. Receivership can be the answer.

A good receiver understands the opportunity of taking on the responsibilities and expectations that go beyond just collecting rent. Maximizing profits, maintaining the property, filling vacancies, marketing to buyers, paying secured and unsecured creditor, and running the property as efficiently and liquidating assets, are all crucial components that require an experienced receiver.

When a loan goes into default, the lender tends to have prima facie case for the appointment of the receiver, but certain alternative circumstances exist. After the appointment by the court, a receiver has legal possession of the property but does not actually hold the title.

How Receivers Are Paid

Receivers are generally paid on a monthly and our hourly basis. Rates varying for the complexity and size of the project, but typically fall in the range of $200 to $500 per hour.
