We wouldn't be all that surprised if a new post-crisis low for the delinquency rate came before the end of the summer.
New York, New York (PRWEB) May 03, 2018
Trepp, LLC, a leading provider of information, analytics, and technology to the structured finance, commercial real estate, and banking markets, has released its April 2018 US CMBS Delinquency Report. The full report can be found here: http://info.trepp.com/april-2018-cmbs-delinquency-report-press-release.
Following a brief timeout in March, the Trepp CMBS Delinquency Rate continued on its downward trajectory in April. The overall delinquency rate for US commercial real estate loans in CMBS dropped 19 basis points to 4.36% last month. The rate increased slightly in March after it had dropped in each of the previous eight months. Currently, the delinquency reading is only 21 basis points higher than its post-financial crisis low of 4.15% from February 2016.
“The delinquency rate continues to fall as expected,” said Trepp Senior Managing Director, Manus Clancy, “with distressed legacy loans being resolved away at a brisk pace and newly originated loans being added to the mix. We wouldn't be all that surprised if a new post-crisis low for the delinquency rate came before the end of the summer.”
The CMBS 2.0+ delinquency rate was 0.55% in April, meaning it was unchanged from the previous month. The percentage of seriously delinquent 2.0+ loans climbed 12 basis points higher to 0.51%. The delinquency reading for the CMBS 1.0 universe was 47.41% in April, down 43 basis points from March. The percentage of 1.0 loans that are seriously delinquent also fell, as that rate slid 36 basis points to 47.26%.
Delinquency readings for all five major property types improved in April, with the industrial sector posting the largest month-over-month drop. The industrial delinquency rate plunged 78 basis points to 4.53% last month. Hotel delinquencies also dropped notably, as that segment’s reading fell 37 basis points to 2.98%. The office delinquency rate shed 23 basis points to 5.57% in April.
