The Situation

The properties supported a church and a nonprofit organization serving people experiencing food insecurity, homelessness, and housing instability in Minneapolis. After the secured debt defaulted, foreclosure proceedings commenced. The court appointed our team as receiver to take possession and assume control of the properties and, with court authorization, market and sell the assets.

How We Advised

Our team secured and managed both properties, preserved their physical condition, fulfilled operating obligations, and conducted a competitive, court-supervised sale process. The commercial property was successfully sold, and the transaction closed. The incumbent lender submitted a credit bid on the church property and subsequently leased it back to the church and the nonprofit organization. Following the completion of these transactions, our team was discharged as successor receiver.
