Risk within CRE lending portfolios may be higher than the banking industry realizes. According to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), the value of outstanding CRE loans totals roughly $4.7T, approximately $2T of which is expected to mature by the end of 2026. Office space comprises a large portion of loans nearing maturity, but multifamily housing also accounts for a major percentage — an area where building owners face their own set of challenges in certain parts of the country. With cities such as San Francisco and New York City implementing regulations that limit rent hikes on certain types of apartment buildings just prior to the pandemic — regulation put in place amidst record-low interest rates — many of these owners have been struggling to make loan payments for the past few years.

How much of the post-COVID-19 work-from-home policy changes are hurting the very same assets that community financial institutions hold? Is your financial institution well prepared in the event of a CRE value correction?

💡 Weekend Insights from Highland Financial Services: 1. Fixed Rates Slashed 🏡📉 A further 10 lenders have reduced their fixed rate mortgages by an average of 0.23% according to Canstar. Major lenders such as Bankwest, ING, and Macquarie now offer fixed rates below 6.00% for owner-occupiers paying principal and interest. Notably, Macquarie Bank made the most competitive changes, dropping its 2- and 3-year fixed rates to 5.59% p.a. for borrowers with a 30% deposit—the lowest 2-year term available in the market. 2. Investor Lending Continues to Rise 📈💼 Investor lending growth is outpacing owner-occupier lending, according to new ABS figures. National home loan commitments (excluding refinancing) grew by 3.9% in July 2024 to reach $30.6 billion. Over the past year, mortgage lending has surged by 26.5%, driven by rising home prices. Of this, $11.7 billion was for investor loans—near record highs. Investor loans grew by 5.4% over the month, marking a 35.4% increase compared to July 2023. 3. Housing Inflation to Moderate 🏘️💸 The housing component of inflation, which makes up around 22% of overall inflation, has been a key driver of price growth in recent years. However, the outlook for housing inflation is improving. Strong growth in the costs of building homes and rising rents have contributed to overall inflation, but signs point to a gradual moderation in these pressures. Stay informed and let us know how these changes are impacting your financial strategies. We're here to help navigate the shifting market landscape. #FinanceUpdate #MortgageRates #InvestorLending #HousingMarket #InflationOutlook

NYCB Seeks Solutions to Mortgage Risk Amid Real Estate Pressures - New York Community Bank (NYCB) Bancorp is proactively seeking investor capital for a large portfolio of residential mortgages under its Flagstar Bank unit, amid increasing financial pressures on the regional lender. The move highlights NYCB's efforts to navigate the challenging real estate market and maintain liquidity. - The bank is exploring a synthetic securitization deal involving a portfolio of about $5 billion in home loans, a strategy aimed at offloading exposure to these loans by transferring the risk to buyers. This approach reflects the bank's innovative measures to manage credit risk amidst a landscape of rising interest rates. - Additionally, NYCB is considering the sale of a $1 billion portfolio of recreational-vehicle and marine loans. These discussions are still in early stages and subject to change, indicating the bank's comprehensive strategy to reassess and potentially divest certain assets. - These initiatives come in the wake of a surprise loss reported by NYCB, tied to deteriorating credit quality and a dividend cut that significantly impacted the bank's share price. The bank's loan-loss provision saw a dramatic increase in the fourth quarter, signaling the depth of the challenges it faces. - NYCB's executive chairman, Alessandro DiNello, emphasized the bank's commitment to building capital, including the possibility of selling loans and reducing its commercial real estate concentration. This statement underscores the bank's determination to stabilize its financial position. - The bank's shares continued to suffer, hitting a 27-year low, despite reassurances about deposit increases. This reflects ongoing investor concerns about NYCB's exposure to commercial real estate and the broader implications of its recent acquisition of parts of the failed Signature Bank. - The US market is gradually seeing the introduction of synthetic securitizations as banks seek innovative ways to manage capital constraints. NYCB's consideration of this and other asset sales represents a strategic response to the current economic environment. - The lender's recent downgrade to junk status by Moody’s Investors Service further complicates its situation. Moody’s highlighted "multifaceted" financial risks and governance challenges, indicating potential further downgrades if conditions worsen. This rating adjustment adds another layer of urgency to NYCB's efforts to address its financial and operational challenges. #NYCB #realestatemarket #financialstrategy #mortgage #bankingsector #creditrisk #securitization #commercialrealestate #marketanalysis

Yesterday (Mar 21st) the Competition Bureau published it’s submission in response to the Department of Finance public consultation on strengthening competition in the financial sector. In that submission it made two key recommendations to lower switching costs for consumers and meaningfully advance competition. 1) Encouraged the Department of Finance to swiftly adopt a consumer-driven banking framework that will boost competition and innovation, by challenging established providers and enabling new service providers 2) They urged policymakers to reconsider the application of the stress test at mortgage renewal for uninsured borrowers, to allow them to switch lenders and benefit from competition. Currently only ‘insured’ mortgages are allowed to switch lenders at maturity without having to re-qualify using the Stress test. Allowing ‘all’ mortgages to forgo the Stress test when switching lenders is something the Mortgage industry has been championing for over 6yrs… Let’s hope the Competition Bureau has enough pull to make this happen
