The landscape of commercial real estate financing has changed dramatically with the Bank of Canada raising rates 8 times in the last 12 months.  How is this impacting the market for borrowers?  What are lender's looking for in deals?  What are the different types of financing available?  How much time is needed to work through the financing process?  

This episode, we're thrilled to be joined by Libby Keyser, Senior Vice President at MillarForan, who shares a wealth of information with us.
