BOSTON, MA - The aggregate value of Commercial Real Estate (CRE) loans priced by DebtX that collateralize CMBS decreased to 79.8% as of March 31, 2011 from 79.9% as of February 28, 2011. Loan values were 75.9% as of March 31, 2010.
"Commercial real estate loan prices in March were largely unchanged from February and remained at approximately the same level throughout the first quarter of 2011," said DebtX CEO Kingsley Greenland. "The stabilizing prices suggest continuing modest improvement in the underlying fundamentals of the commercial real estate market."
In March, DebtX priced 54,765 CRE loans with a $653.7 billion aggregate principal balance. These loans, which collateralize 623 US CMBS trusts, each received a DXMark®, a price based on 10 years of data from billions of dollars in loan sales executed by DebtX, the largest marketplace for loan sales. Access to individual DXMark prices is available through the BLOOMBERG PROFESSIONAL® Service.
