The professionals at The Norseman Group understand the importance of having a proven, pre-defined underwriting process and maintaining active communication among all participating parties during a transaction under engagement - borrowers, senior lenders, brokers, outside legal counsel, experts, title company representatives, insurers, and other participants.  Norseman has invested heavily in its form loan documentation and has developed a library of alternative provisions to accommodate the specifics of any particular deal.  Norseman has pre-negotiated intercreditor and cash management agreements with several preeminent financial institutions and wherever possible, uses forms that comply with CSMA and Rating Agency guidelines.

Immediately upon any financing engagement, the Norseman Underwriting Team develops a working group contact listing, a deal structure chart, and closing checklist.  Throughout the underwriting process, the client can be assured of frequent deal status reporting and access to their Norseman Banker and assigned closing team leader.
