Season 5, Episode 5: In this episode of Season 5, Jack and Alex sit down with Bill Sexton, CEO of Trimont, the largest independent commercial real estate loan servicer in the US. With Trimont now touching roughly 11% of all CRE debt nationwide, Bill offers a rare look into the mechanics behind servicing, workouts, and credit decision-making at scale.

Bill walks through how servicing actually works, why distress is emerging unevenly across multifamily, office, and lodging, and what the data is signaling beneath the headlines. The conversation also digs into extensions, refinancing risk, and how lenders are navigating the back half of this cycle.
