Phase Four Run-Up: When Congress Finally Asked 'How Bad Is This?'

This is post 5 in my series on The Commercial Real Estate Tsunami: A Survival Guide for Lenders, Owners, Buyers, and Brokers by Tony Wood, with a foreword by Matthew Anderson (ISBN: 978-0-470-63637-4, published by John Wiley & Sons, 2010).
