Helix Financial is capable of providing a wide variety of financial service solutions for its clients.

Set forth below are highlights of recent assignments we have completed:

Portfolio Loan Sizing for a Major CMBS Originator:
On short notice, Helix Financial assembled a team to analyze 28 hotel properties and create a “roll-up” cash flow and sizing model so that this client could quickly respond to the property owner’s financing request. Helix Financial completed the project within one business day, which helped our client to lock up this financing assignment before their competitors were even able to fully analyze the financing request.
 
Full Program Support for a Major Commercial Bank:
Helix Financial provides an entire infrastructure solution to the new CMBS lending program for a large commercial bank. Services include the Rockport Database System, loan pre-screening and sizing, pricing models, collateral mark-to-market, hedging analytics and strategic advisory.
 
Cash Flow Underwriting for a Leading Subordinate Bond Buyer:
As a routine due diligence provider for this client, Helix Financial completed loan file reviews, full cash flow re-underwriting and site inspections to assist in the acquisition of single-B and unrated loans. Helix Financial reviewed and underwrote cash flows in connection with over 100 assets within a three week period.
 
CDO Balance Sheet Management Tool for a Leading REIT:
Helix Financial worked directly with senior management of a mortgage and property REIT to develop a Microsoft SQL and VB coded system that allows this client to estimate subordination levels, generate collateral cash flows and calculate profitability of a CDO bond distribution.
 
Investment Department of a Major Investment Bank:
Helix Financial prepares monthly and quarterly investment surveillance reports for multiple CMBS transactions as part of a report that is nationally published. Helix Financial re-underwrites asset cash flows, incorporates changes in deal structures and rating actions and comments on general performance of the transactions.
