CoStar Online features Jeffrey Rogers in MarketWatch Newsletter

by Mark Heschmeyer

Mark Heschmeyer of CoStar Online's MarketWatch e-newsletter interviews Jeffrey Rogers, COO and president of Integra Realty Resources on the decline of banks lending money to commercial real estate developers. "In a recession and in the midst of a banking crisis, lending standards tighten significantly," Rogers said. "Nothing becomes more important than cash. There is still a lot of uncertainty in the capital markets and no one has the appetite for risk. Those with the cash will come out on top."
