The CMBS delinquency rate for U.S. commercial real estate loans in CMBS declined a fraction in July, to 6.04%, barely extending a 14-month month-over-month decline, according to Trepp. Loan resolutions totaled just over $600 million, one of the lowest monthly totals in recent years. Removing these resolved loans resulted in 11 basis points (bp) of downward movement in the delinquency rate. Loans that cured reduced delinquencies by 13 bp, but this was more than offset by loans that were newly delinquent. New delinquencies added about 23 bp to the delinquency rate.
