Could you clarify what about it seems interesting to you in terms of types of deals, for example ? Could help put together a better answer then.

As someone in Special Situations, this is all about distressed deals. My current day to day is handling things like the following:

  • partially built Class A office skyscraper in an area with very bad office fundamentals
  • 1200 acres of unentitled land with no source of water
  • mixed-use development where they have been unable to lease up the retail portion resulting in negative cash flow

 Just to clarify the word Special Situations sounds cool to some people, but most people would find the day to day super boring. Im usually dealing with attorneys for 90% of the time.

This comment is accurate. 

Also in terms of what happens its a weird negotiation table, and a little bit less modeling tbh. Seems like people in those groups were involved in some type of deal gone wrong and moved over with their deal or have a heavy legal/language backround that help figure out what can and can't happen going forward.

This is less modeling and more someone reading docs and finding a solution that is legal/profitable

 

Man, you do some cool stuff, mind naming some firms that have SS groups?
