Bill Bymel, Founder and CEO of First Lien Capital, distressed debt investor, special situations advisor, host of the Debt Doctor Podcast, and author focused on the secondary mortgage market joins Louis Fernandes of The AI Edge Podcast to discuss what’s really happening with the current mortgage crisis.<\/p>\n

Bill pulls back the curtain on what most investors, operators, and even the media are missing:
\n\u2022 Why low default rates may be hiding the real stress in the market
\n\u2022 How \u201cextend and pretend\u201d became the system\u2019s way of delaying pain
\n\u2022 Why lenders avoid foreclosure even when loans are clearly broken
\n\u2022 What actually causes loans to fail in commercial real estate
\n\u2022 How borrowers can create better outcomes before it\u2019s too late
\n\u2022 Where AI can help in servicing, loss mitigation, and decision-making
