Multifamily Lending Mid-Year Market Landscape
- Agency lending is starting to hit its stride, with volumes starting to increase on a monthly basis
- Third-party capital is broadly available, but flexibility, structure, and certainty are being explicitly priced
- Investment sales activity is concentrated in higher-quality assets as buyers remain disciplined
The key theme of the Commercial Real Estate (CRE) lending space to start the year was the abundance of liquidity. The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) raised the Agencies’ caps to $88B. Debt funds were abundant with multifamily-specific capital to lend, and life companies had fresh allocations. To start the year, the Agencies were competitive but disciplined; neither Fannie Mae nor Freddie Mac was in chase mode despite strong year-to-date volume.
