Defeasance Expertise Waterstone Defeasance specializes in defeasance for CMBS, Freddie Mac, and other securitized debt with a track record dating back to 2004 and over $20B in original loan balances defeased, signaling a mature service provider for complex debt structures.

Borrower Advocacy The firm represents borrowers exclusively, not servicers or big banks, and assigns a dedicated Defeasance Coordinator to each transaction, offering white-glove service and objective pricing advocacy to secure best available terms.

End-to-End Coordination Waterstone coordinates with all parties involved in defeasance—servicer, counsel, verification, brokers, custodians, rating agencies, title company, and successor borrower—facilitating timely closings and reducing deal friction for lenders and borrowers.

Growth Signals Recent activity shows the firm investing in real estate assets (e.g., a $6.4M office property) and maintaining a revenue range indicative of growing advisory demand within non-residential leasing and securitized debt markets.

Sales Targeting With a lean team and nationwide coverage, potential cross-sell opportunities exist with diversified players in securitized debt markets, including CMBS servicers, lenders, and borrowers seeking independent defeasance solutions and accelerated closing timelines.
