Michael R. Linton, Managing Broker of Linton Global Solutions (FL License BK703722), has published The Bank REO Disposition Playbook: A Guide for Bank Asset Managers: Value It, Decide It, Sell It, and Document It. The full-color paperback is now available on Amazon.
The book is written for bank asset managers, REO managers, and special assets officers. It opens with a premise that frames every chapter:
“Every bank-owned property is a small company with tenants instead of customers. It has earnings, a value, a capital cost and a clock.”
What's inside
- The REO lifecycle, stage by stage, with who owns each decision
- Four valuation tools (appraisal, evaluation, broker opinion, income approach) and when each fits
- A one-page comparison of listing, auction, bulk or note sale, and lease-up, on net proceeds and time
- Running the sale like an M&A process
- Florida specifics: insurance, flood, documentary stamps, and condominium rules
- A worked Florida example, a cost-of-waiting table, and a tear-out checklist
- Building the decision record that examiners and boards expect
An advisor who thinks like a banker
On the back cover, Linton sets the standard for anyone a bank hires to sell its REO:
“Choose an advisor who can underwrite the deal, show recent comparable sales, explain the capital stack and run a competitive process: an advisor who thinks like a banker.” Michael R. Linton
Availability
The Bank REO Disposition Playbook (ISBN 9798160818788) is a 24-page, full-color, 8.5 × 11 paperback, available now on Amazon.
