NEW YORK (PRWEB) April 07, 2021
Trepp, a leading provider of data, insights, and technology solutions to the structured finance, commercial real estate, and banking markets, has released a research report on the lodging hotel sector. The full report can be accessed here: https://info.trepp.com/hotel-report-april-2021-pr.
With a quarter of 2021 underway, it is time to re-examine the lodging sector before what looks to be the beginning of gradual re-openings and a return to tourism across the United States. This report provides an update on the lodging sector following Trepp’s research from November 2020.
"At this point in 2021, the economy looks to show signs of continued improvement," said Maximillian Nelson, Trepp research analyst. "The Federal Reserve, fresh off the heels of a $1.9 trillion relief bill, is committed to keeping interest rates low and maintaining an accommodative monetary policy which could, in turn, affect the lodging commercial real estate sector, which has been greatly impacted by the coronavirus pandemic."
Following the recent downward trend of the overall delinquency rate, in February the lodging sector also posted its largest drop in the delinquency reading since October 2020, dropping 272 basis points to 16.38%. For March, the overall rate fell even further, dropping 41 basis points to 15.95%.
The lodging special servicing rate also dropped slightly in March, to 24.25%. The rate is still the highest among the commonly tracked CRE-property subtypes, with the concentration being in the full-service, limited-service, and ‘other’ subtypes, with special servicing rates all reading over 20%.
Throughout 2020, Trepp also tracked the number of loans that had seen appraisal reductions. According to the TreppInsights Business Intelligence tool, over 440 loans had their value reduced since 2020 – amounting to over $1.3 billion in reductions as of February 2021.
