We are pleased to introduce the latest episode of Navigating Mortgage M&A, a collaborative effort between Mayer Brown and Mortgage Advisory Partners. In this episode, Closing Preparation and Communications, hosts Lauren Pryor and Brian Hale are pleased to welcome Mike Baynes, an accomplished entrepreneur and co-founding partner of Lower.com.

In this episode, we discuss cultural elements to consider when identifying a potential closing team, emphasizing the importance of collaboration to determine the inner circle best positioned to bring the companies together. As emotions heighten nearing the closing, we stress the importance of managing employee expectations and concerns to conducting pulse checks and identifying early wins that reflect the bright future of the company.
