This white paper examines:

  • The connection between rapidly escalating interest rates and the CRE market slowdown, including context from the last period of severe distress.
  • Size of total debt in the NYC market with breakdowns by vintage and asset type; the impact of coming maturities.
  • Banks shifting towards more conservative underwriting, and the impact to borrowers today and going forward.
  • Consequences of the rent stabilization law of 2019.
  • Declining office values, and the particularly precarious position of Class B&C Office.
  • The continued rise of property taxes, and past-due taxes as a leading indicator of distress.
  • A practical example of how an individual property owner is affected by falling values, rising interest and cap rates, and stricter lending standards.
