The economy is poised for significant change this year, and the Multi-Family market is no exception. According to Yardi Matrix, a staggering $150 billion in loans on 6,800 properties will mature by the end of 2025. Moreover, 58,000 MF loans, representing over $525 billion of the nearly half of the $1.1 trillion MF loan market, will mature by the end of 2029. 

This Keynote Session will dissect the complexities of multifamily financing in this dynamic landscape. A distinguished panel of industry experts, including representatives from diverse debt sources -- such as portfolio lenders, agency lenders, CMBS, bridge lenders, and private credit -- will provide invaluable insights into the current debt capital landscape. Moderated by a seasoned expert, panelists will address:

• Financing Options: A comprehensive overview of the financing options available.
• Market Dynamics: An insider's perspective on the key factors influencing debt availability, interest rates, loan terms, and underwriting criteria in the evolving MF market.
• Best Practices: Proven strategies for securing optimal financing solutions while navigating the emerging economic environment.
• Credit Criteria: Analysis of the specific credit criteria lenders are scrutinizing on all loans now, but especially for owners with struggling properties.

This session is an absolute Must-Attend for Multi-Family Owner/Operators aiming to make 2025 a successful year.

The MF sector is forecast to be at the start of a three-year cycle of increasing Multi-Family distress.  According to CMBS special servicer Locke Lord, Multi-Family distressed property already jumped from 2.6% to 11% in 2024.  And higher interest rates will make refinancing more difficult for the 58,533 MF property loans that will mature between 2025 and 2029.  Overleveraged investors who lack the resources to pay down the principal or the expertise to negotiate a loan modification will default.   

Are loan modifications real?  What does it take to make it happen?  Join this panel of Owner/Operators, Restructuring Experts and Distressed Property Specialists as they discuss distressed MF debt.
