NEW YORK, Dec. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Trepp, a leading provider of information, analytics, and technology to the structured finance, commercial real estate, and banking markets has released a report to examine the impact of COVID-19 on the Manhattan retail commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) market in collaboration with CompStak, the nationwide provider of commercial real estate lease comps, sales comps, and property information.

"Signs of increased distress have been reflected in CMBS loans backed by Manhattan retail through rising delinquencies, reduced occupancy rates, and lower appraised value assignments, making this a segment that warrants close monitoring," said Catherine Liu, report co-author and Trepp Associate Manager of Research.
Overall, retail properties in Manhattan serve as collateral for 130 CMBS loans with an outstanding balance of $5.0 billion – this accounts for roughly 3.8% of the entire retail CMBS universe and nearly 40% of the CMBS retail exposure for the state of New York by balance.
Distress rates for retail CMBS loans secured by Manhattan retail have climbed notably since the start of the coronavirus pandemic in March. Delinquency and special servicing rates for Manhattan retail climbed to an all-time high of 16.78% and 17.55% in August, respectively, up from 2.38% and 8.41% in February, as compared to historical peak levels of 3.71% and 4.39% prior to this year.
