Small Business Bill, Accounting Change Could Pack Wallop
September 27, 2010 -- GlobeSt.com
Howard Peskoe explains why pending legislation, designed to spur lending to small businesses, probably will not tend to cause those businesses to buy commercial property, rather than lease. But the bill, in combination with proposed changes to the accounting rule FASB 13, might do so, he says, because the changes would require businesses to include lease payments as debt on their balance sheets, possibly leading some to buy instead of lease.

The Industry Could Get Boost from SBA Proposals
February 10, 2010 -- GlobeSt.com
The Obama Administration's plan to urge community banks to lend to small businesses might benefit the commercial real estate industry, but only indirectly, Howard Peskoe says. SBA loans to entrepreneurs help businesses get started and expand, and that increased economic activity leads to additional sale or leasing of office, warehouse and retail space, he says. But he does not anticipate that the Administration's initiative will increase the number of direct loans from community banks to real estate developers and investors.

Howard casts doubt, however, whether the plan will work or represent a boon to real estate lending.
