Welcome!

Private credit is facing a new level of scrutiny, and real estate lenders are watching capital markets conditions more closely than ever. This panel will examine liquidity, warehouse lines, investor appetite, spreads, and how today’s private credit environment is shaping lending strategy. Hear from capital providers and market leaders on what they are seeing now, where capital is tightening, and where opportunity still exists.

An amazing opportunity to network and build valuable connections with sponsors, guests, brokers, and network with new contacts.

This event is for all attendees.

This lender-focused demo will show how LiveDeal gives capital providers direct access to active, vetted loan opportunities. Attendees will learn how to sign up, customize platform preferences based on their credit box, and flag opportunities they want to pursue. With hundreds of active financing requests on the platform, LiveDeal helps lenders expand qualified deal flow, access opportunities beyond their existing network, and move deals forward through direct support from a dedicated LoanGeek advisor. 

Lenders are adjusting product strategy in real time as borrower demand shifts across asset classes, loan types, and market conditions. This panel will explore where capital is being deployed today, which products are gaining traction, and how lenders are adapting to meet the needs of real estate investors. The discussion will also bring in an institutional perspective on how capital providers are evaluating demand, credit quality, and market opportunity across the private lending space, while highlighting what is working, what is slowing down, and where the next lending opportunities are emerging.

This interactive broker workshop is built around the real questions, deal scenarios, and business challenges brokers are facing right now. Led by experienced, high-producing brokers in the private lending industry, the session will provide practical feedback on deal structuring, packaging, lender fit, borrower communication, and more.

Join us for a delicious catered lunch.

Lunch is for all attendees.

Technology is no longer a side conversation in lending operations. This panel will focus on how lenders are using automation, AI, and smarter workflow tools to improve speed, reduce fallout, and create a better borrower and broker experience. From intake and underwriting to fraud detection and document flow, the conversation will center on where technology is actually driving results.

Give brokers and investors direct, no-middleman access to lenders across the full spectrum of programs—DSCR, fix-and-flip, ground-up construction, land, large commercial, cannabis, foreclosure/auction, and more. The focus is educational: what each lender actually funds, where their products fit in today’s market, and exactly how to submit a clean file. Every table represents a distinct niche or product set, so attendees leave knowing who to call, what to send, and how to move live deals forward.

This panel brings lenders into a real-time discussion about what they are seeing across today’s deal flow, borrower behavior, and investor activity. Panelists will share how borrower sentiment is shifting, what types of deals are coming across their desks, where loan quality is improving or deteriorating, and what red flags are becoming more common. The conversation will focus on practical market observations from the front lines, including borrower liquidity, valuation gaps, exit strategy concerns, broker submission quality, and how lenders are adjusting their credit box in response to current market conditions.

An amazing networking opportunity where you can close out the day with an opportunity to meet and have a drink with sponsors, guests, brokers, and network with new contacts.

This event is for all attendees.
