EDIT: A big chunk of Trump's debt might be up for sale.

Ladder Capital Corp (LADR.N), a real estate investment trust which has bankrolled much of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's property development, is exploring the possibility of a sale, according to people familiar with the matter.

The move comes as Ladder grapples with new regulations making selling on mortgages more difficult. Founded in 2008, it has been one of the key lenders that Trump has turned to after his relations with major Wall Street banks soured following some of his business bankruptcies in the 1990s.

Hm, wonder if any foreign state banks might be interested.

Also talks a bit about changes in regulations, with Trump putting people in to change or dismantle regulations around lending that's another area where he's in a position to directly influence regulations that could benefit him.
