As an investor, it’s easy to get overwhelmed with the wealth of information that you’re required to sift through to make a good financial decision. It’s always wise to employ the services of a good broker, and Andrew Westling is here to explain why his firm is one of the best in the business! Andrew is a Director of Capital Markets at Walker & Dunlop, one of the largest commercial real estate finance and advisory services firms in the United States, and he is responsible for new loan originations and closings for multi-family and commercial properties nationwide. Andrew explains why having a broker is an absolute necessity in today’s market climate before detailing why many investors are apprehensive about pulling the trigger on new deals. We also discuss the effects of the Federal Reserve keeping its rates low, how Andrew weighs real estate investments against other safe options, why Walker & Dunlop is the safest bet for you, and everything you need to know about market fluctuations, lender variations, and asset class assessments in today’s lending climate.
