What are CMBS loans?
CMBS loans, also known as conduit loans, have emerged as one of the most popular forms of commercial real estate financing in recent years. CMBS stands for commercial mortgage-backed security, as these loans are later pooled with similar loans, and packaged into bonds that can be sold to investors on the secondary market. CMBS loans are known for their lenient credit requirements, and typically have fixed-rate terms of 5, 7, or 10 years. At CMBS Loans, we specialize in CMBS financing for all kinds of properties, and can get you some of the best rates on the market.

We arrange preferred equity & mezzanine loans behind CMBS senior debt
CMBS/Conduit senior loans don't generally allow for recorded junior or subordinate debt to sit behind them. Situations like this call for creative structures to help owners/operators raise working capital, replace existing subordinate debt, or recapture additional capital when selling the underlying collateral (the commercial property) via a loan assumption.

We understand conduit loans
Because our core business has been sourcing new CMBS debt for existing commercial properties, we have developed a deep understanding of the securitization process and the intricacies involved in how servicers and special servicers manage their portfolios. We also have experience managing prepayment considerations including defeasance and yield maintenance, and the commercial real estate property value complications that have come along 10 years after financing at the peak of our last cycle. It is important to understand that not all CMBS loans are created equal and that terms, spreads, prepayment penalties, leverage, and property valuation considerations vary by provider. As such, it is important to work with a market expert that has no conflict of interest.
Multiple property types are eligible for CMBS loans
Some intermediaries only help borrowers source conduit loans for traditional property types, such as office buildings and apartment buildings, but not us. We help our clients get loans for all kinds of properties, including industrial properties, warehouses, parking garages, marinas, retail properties, mixed use properties, mobile home parks, nursing homes, hospitals, student housing properties and more. Plus, we can also assist clients who want to get CMBS financing for portfolios of properties. CMBS portfolio loans are growing in popularity and a great way for larger businesses to refinance multiple properties while enjoying low interest rates and liberal cash-out restrictions.

No conflicts of interest
In today's market, most conduit lenders, and many larger brokerage and advisor services service their own loans. Many borrowers never consider the implications of this. Every 10 basis points your CMBS lender increases your spread by equates to a 1% bump to their bottom line and off yours. That means if a broker or lender charges you a 1% fee and earns an extra 30 bps in the spread by making a biased decision, they are potentially earning an additional 3% on your loan. The higher your rate is, the more the servicers, brokers, and lenders profit.
