Individual TIC loans coming soon?

An article in the San Francisco Business Times (dated July 22nd) discusses some advances in the TIC loan market, and some of the efforts by tenant activists to stop lenders from making it any easier to get into a TIC.

This is something that has been coming for quite a while, and appears to be imminent. It just remains to be seen what, if anything, the Tenant's Union and/or the Board of Supervisors can do to prevent what seems inevitable.

The San Francisco Examiner also has an article dated July 13th on this topic.
