February 5, 2024

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guest on today’s show is Kevin Wills. Kevin is Sr. Vice President, Healthcare Business Banking with PNC Bank and I wanted to have Kevin on the show to discuss the state of lending, specifically in the healthcare space, from a nationwide perspective. In this episode, Kevin and talk about steps borrowers can take to put themselves in the best financial position prior to going through underwriting, how important projections and pro formas are in the underwriting process, how the banking landscape has changed as more and more banks have focused on healthcare lending, and a number of other topics.
