Project Deutschland: Unpeeling the Onion of a Distressed Real Estate Portfolio
By: Nori Gerardo Lietz and Ricardo Andrade
Abstract
James Tallest analyzed the opportunity to invest in a distressed portfolio of high quality properties in Germany by acquiring one or more non-performing loans from Deutschland Bank. While he considers the many aspects of the deal that is about to unfold, he must decide which securities to acquire, the price he should offer to each of them, and whether to retain the former owner of the portfolio as property manager.
