Services
At Countrywide Capital Asset Management, we focus on providing quality financial advisory services to our clients. Our deep knowledge of real estate and finance combined with highly disciplined research to deliver results driven by a client-centric focus
First, we can help you define your objectives, and then can design a customized portfolio strategy to achieve them. Through intensive reporting and constant analysis, Countrywide Capital Asset Management ensures that these objectives are met.
Countrywide Capital Asset Management has currently managed and disposed of over $1 billion in assets for a diverse clientele comprised primarily of private individuals, as well for some institutional investors.
As part of this work, Countrywide Capital Asset Management is an expert in restructuring of debt for its clients, having modified over $175 million in such loans as of year-end 2010.
Our asset management team is led by seasoned property and research professionals that use state-of-the-art technology and proven processes that insure consistency and reliability. We provide a wide range of industry-specific services and tasks designed to maximize returns through effective planning, consistent reporting and continual follow-up.
Assessment of a property starts with conducting or reviewing site visits, which includes assessing the condition of the property, evaluating the onsite staff and marketing program, and thoroughly reviewing tenant files. We develop business plans addressing performance issues, and then recommend courses of action to achieve the desired results.
Our commitment to research and its practical application to decision-making are critical to the success of every investment portfolio we manage. The best research is irrelevant if the analysis it produces isn’t used in day-to-day decision-making. Countrywide Capital Asset Management can provide and effectively translate specific economic analysis into the kind of insight necessary to maximize investment performance.
Countrywide Capital is an expert in working with lenders and owners of distressed properties to find solutions to challenging situations. CCG acquired Americas Loss Mitigation Solutions Corp in 2009, a leader in the loss mitigation industry. Since the acquisition the company has handled workouts totaling over $175 million, and in the past two years, has helped clients in numerous Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases. These efforts have involved working with a wide range of financial institutions, from CMBS lenders and national lending institutions to local banks.
Our company has built deep relationships in the financial industry based on the knowledge that we can help figure out how to make deals work for everyone involved. In this difficult environment, this certainly isn’t easy, and requires a combination of market knowledge, patience and persistence.
A loan restructuring can certainly be a preferable alternative to bankruptcy, and our goal is to turn a negative situation into one that offers a more promising outlook for both the lender and the property owner
