Both parties have extensive backgrounds (over thirty-five years of individual experience) in commercial appraisal and real estate lending. Jack Prill was employed by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States for eight years, and headed the appraisal staff for the local office. Woody Lievers was employed by TCF, fsb, as a commercial real estate loan officer. Both were employed as mortgage bankers with Rothschild Financial Corporation, Mr. Lievers for a period of fifteen years in the production, appraisal and administration of real estate investments.
