Answer to Question 1

The answers will vary but should include a discussion about the tension between the duty of confidentiality and the requirement to disclose the existence of hazardous materials. The most thorough response will recite the circumstances under which the lawyer is not bound by the duty but instead is obliged to share otherwise confidential information.

Answer to Question 2

Construction financing represents the funds provided to cover the out of pocket costs of construction and are usually released by the lender based on the percentage of the completion of the project. Permanent financing comes from lenders who do not want the risk inherent in financing a construction project that may never be completed. Permanent lenders will only finance the completed project, but will agree to pay off the construction lender upon completion.
