Trepp: CMBS Special Servicing Rate Sees Slight Decline in October After Hitting 2020 Peak

 

Following the 2020 year-to-date peak in Trepp's CMBS special servicing rate seen in September, the number has since inched down. The CMBS Special Servicing rate reduced 20 basis points in October, coming in at 10.28%, compared to 10.48% in September. This change can be attributed in part to loans that have been granted forbearances and are now being transferred out of special servicing and returned to the master servicer.

AAHOA Update on California

Proposition 15

 

Join us on Friday as our AAHOA Government Affairs Team and Lynn Mohrfeld, President & CEO of CHLA, give AAHOA Members an update on Proposition 15, which was defeated at the polls. Prop 15 would have amended the California State Constitution to require commercial and industrial properties, except those zoned as commercial agriculture, to be taxed based on their market value rather than their purchase price.
