🚨 Office CMBS Crashes Past 2008 Lows
Delinquencies hit 11.8% as lenders freeze deals and loans trade at 30-40 cents on the dollar
The office CMBS delinquency rate just hit 11.8%, worse than the 2008 crisis, because borrowers can’t keep up with payments and lenders have stopped writing new deals.
One major office REIT already collapsed into Chapter 11 after missing its debt payments, and creditors are now seizing properties to sell them off in court.
Passive Cash-Flowing Properties
Buy shares of investment properties, earn rental income & appreciation for anywhere from $100 to $20k — let Arrived take care of the rest.
More properties are headed for default in the coming months as the credit crunch tightens.
That means fire-sale opportunities are starting to pile up for anyone ready to bid early.
The window to lock in deals before competition returns is open right now.
