Commercial Mortgage Modification Negotiations

You might have been in the commercial development business for years and years. You might have done everything by the book, conservatively. You weren’t speculating or taking huge risks like the other guys. But the general overbearing market slump has affected your property’s bottom line, and for the past few months you haven’t been able to make loan payments. The development’s underwater, and you’re considering a prudent commercial loan mod. A prudent loan workout isn’t an easy feat to accomplish. Getting some banks to even consider it will take some brute force will. But ultimately, if your property’s a viable business—and the bank feels it is—a prudent commercial loan mod will be mutually beneficial.

The commercial loan modification will invariably entail an audit of the property’s books and pertinent business documents: business plans, tenant lease agreements, floor plans, accounting records, etc. The commercial loan renegotiation will be tough, and will likely take a toll on your confidence in the venture, but you should realize that the bank does not want to see you default and does not want to foreclose. The bank would much rather have you see a loan—any loan, the original loan, a modified loan—through to maturity. The bank has as incentives a number of government programs that help prod lenders toward remediation rather than complacently letting the borrower default. Take a stand for the interests of your venture and business. Don’t let the bank get the upper hand during the commercial loan renegotiation. Just as purchase prices of commercial property’s set the tone for the pro forma, the terms that you fight for will set the tone for the property for years and years to come.

“The mid-1970s was England’s darkest, dreariest hour. The UK was sliding deeper into unemployment, reeling from strike after strike, power cuts, the three-day work week, and IRA bombs. It was time for a new order and in London’s restless streets a handful of snotty young men, feisty females, and first generation Jamaican musicians created the UK’s punky revolution. They made it up as they went along and it touched every corner of the Disunited Kingdom. For a few glorious years the UK was the center of the cultural universe.” —Vivien Goldman When punk first rocked, the rough and rugged style on the streets was a world away from the super-slick music videos and corporate stylists that were to follow. And photographer Janette Beckman was on the front line of that hyper-energized time, capturing “the look” of the musicians and kids who were loudly defining an era. Collected for the first time in Made in the UK, Beckman’s powerful portraits celebrate the music and the attitude of Punk, Mod, Skinhead, 2 Tone, and Rockabilly culture in the UK. Made in the UK: The Music of Attitude, 1977–1983 documents a time when British music pushed every boundary. Beckman began her career working for Melody Maker, one of London’s premier weekly music papers. She soon had extraordinary access to the musicians topping the UK charts—icons of an era when music had an agenda—including The Clash, The Sex Pistols, The Jam, The Undertones, The Specials, The Beat, The Police, The Ramones, The Rockats, The Raincoats (Kurt Cobain’s inspiration), Billy Idol, and Echo and the Bunnymen. Among these groups, this generation still had the radical idea that each and every punk, skin, mod, rude boy, and ted was just as important as the bands. Janette Beckman’s gritty aesthetic placed her on good footing among the kids on the street—and the portraits she made prove

 ''We are the Mods'': A Transnational History of a Youth Subculture


''We are the Mods'': A Transnational History of a Youth Subculture


$32.95


The Mod youth culture began in the postwar era as a way for young people to reconfigure modernity after the chaos of World War II. Through archival research, oral history interviews, and participant observation, this book traces Mod's geographic origins from dimly lit clubs of London's Soho, to contemporary, country-specific expressions today. By specifically examining the U.S., Germany, and Japan, alongside the U.K., _We are the Mods_ shows how this subculture played out in countries that both lost and won the War. Each chapter, which unfolds chronologically, begins with a contemporary portrait of the Mod scene in a particular country, followed by an overview stretching back to the nineteenth-century and a section that describes Mod's initial impact there during the 1960s. This examination of the adoption and adaptation of Mod style across geographic space also maps its various interpretations over time: from the early 1960s to the present. In sum, this study emphasizes Mod's transnationalism, which is evident in the culture's fashion, music, iconography, and gender aesthetics.
