How major real estate deals get financed

With Mayer Brown

Apply to attend

Join us on the afternoon of Wednesday 28 October for a virtual student event with international law firm Mayer Brown exploring the world of real estate finance.

From office buildings and residential developments to major infrastructure projects, financing is central to bringing real estate deals to life. Mayer Brown’s lawyers advise lenders and borrowers on complex transactions across a broad range of commercial and residential assets.

Senior associate Annabel Ersser, associate Joshua Patterson and solicitor apprentice Isabel Heffner will unpack how major real estate financings come together, the role lawyers play at each stage and how wider economic and market conditions can influence the way transactions are financed.

The panel will also share insights from their different career stages, offering a sense of what working in real estate finance is really like and how they each built their careers in this area. 

Following the presentation and Q&A, there will be virtual networking with the speakers, Mayer Brown trainees and members of the firm’s graduate recruitment team.

Apply to attend above. You will be asked to submit two questions for the firm.
