George Smith Partners, in conjunction with a leading global investment bank, offers Interest Rate Protection Programs for commercial developers and homebuilders.

Programs are designed to protect against rising interest rates during construction and/or protect the developer against rate risk on the future permanent financing, whether they plan to continue to own the property or sell at completion. Programs are also available to provide homebuilders with benefits equal or superior to forward commitments and/or rate locks without the downsides.
