    DONALD TRUMP & LARRY KUDLOW ACCLAIM A BRILLIANT NEW BOOK ABOUT OUR ONGOING REAL ESTATE REVOLUTION

    It's ground-breaking. It's brilliant. It is the one essential book to come out of the one of the worst real estate recessions in American history. It is Commercial Real Estate Restructuring Revolution: Strategies, Tranche Warfare, and Prospects for Recovery by nationally prominent real estate attorney Stephen Meister, and it has just been published by John Wiley & Sons. The book not only analyzes the causes of the recent real estate meltdown (for both housing and commercial real estate), but it also presents a highly readable and cogent view of the future of real estate. Mr. Meister writes with verve, clarity, and a profound understanding born out of his representation of some of the richest, most prestigious and well-known real estate developers and investors in the United States.

    Here's what the two of most well-known experts are saying about Stephen Meister's book:
    Donald Trump, president and chairman of the Trump Organization, has exclaimed that "Stephen Meister has written an insightful and comprehensive book that explains what happened during the financial crisis and offers possible solutions to what we're facing now. CRERR is a fast, concise read, and it's recommended reading - no matter what your business may be."
    And Larry Kudlow, host of CNBC's the Kudlow Report and former member of President Reagan's council of economic advisors, enthused that "Stephen Meister has a profound understanding of the world of real estate. Anyone who doesn't read his book will be operating without the benefit of Meister's penetrating insights. His book casts a bright light into many of the dark corners of our real estate economy and untangles complex governmental issues. Now he has put his vast knowledge into a readable, cogent, and exciting book. I strongly recommend it."

    Stephen Meister's books explains it all, past, present and future: Following on the heels of the housing crash, the bursting of the commercial real estate (CRE) bubble, and the ensuing tsunami of CRE foreclosures, there are risks and opportunities which likely won't be repeated in our lifetimes. And, unfortunately, it's coming sooner than most people realize. According to a Congressional Oversight Panel Report, $1.4 trillion of CRE debt is coming due between now and 2014. What's more, half of CRE projects are underwater. This is not only more bad news for struggling banks-CRE loans are the second largest loan type after home mortgages-but is also devastating for an already fragile U.S. economy.

    In Commercial Real Estate Restructuring Revolution, Mr. Meister details how we got into this mess, what to expect and when, how to prepare for the coming crash, what government can do and what it shouldn't, and what can be done in the future to avoid future real estate bubbles.

    In Commercial Real Estate Restructuring Revolution, Stephen Meister examines with a jeweler's eye the following important issues:
    • The policies and actions that created the housing crisis
    • The history of the commercial real estate capital markets
    • The causes of the impending CRE crisis, including the sub-prime mortgage meltdown, debt structures, lender-borrow collusion, and bankruptcy abuses
    • How consumer purchasing power drives the CRE markets
    • Why the multi-family CRE sector presents both risks and benefits not found in other CRE asset classes
    • Why rent controls laws are misguided and damaging
    • Why the Obama administration's efforts to combat the housing crisis have not only failed but actually compounded the crisis
    • How banks, in an attempt to pay back their TARP loans so they can get out from under the government's thumb, are currently hiding losses in CRE
    • Real reforms that can be implemented today to prevent tomorrow's bubbles

    Commercial Real Estate Structuring Revolution is like no other book about real estate. For anyone who invests in residential or commercial properties, this book is essential reading. Prior to its much anticipated publication, a select group of sophisticated real estate investors, economists, and lawyers, who have read the manuscript exclaimed that Mr. Meister has written what should be considered the definitive real estate bible.
