DebtX: Commercial Real Estate Loan Prices Stable

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Prices for Commercial Real Estate (CRE) whole loans securing the US CMBS universe rose modestly in January, while impaired performing and non-performing loans sold through DebtX declined slightly, according to DebtX, the largest marketplace for loans.

"CRE loan pricing was mostly flat in January," said DebtX Managing Director Will Mercer. "The modest increase in loan prices securing the CMBS universe was primarily due to improving loan-to-value ratios, despite the upward shift in the yield curve."
