| Yesterday?s NAIOP breakfast attracted brokers in droves to hear Wrightwood Capital's Bruce Cohen explain challenges and benefits of TARP, TALF, and PPIP. He says those ?four-letter words? have replaced ESPN as most important in his vocab, but with $700B still in the CMBS market, there's no way lending issues will be resolved quickly. Wrightwood raises its own funds, including $250M for mezzanine debt in 2008, which it's used, so far, on one deal. | |
