Commercial Lending Accelerates<\/h2>\n

Commercial lending activity thoroughly recovered in 2021. Total originations in the third quarter registered a 119 percent uptick compared to the same time the year before, a Mortgage Bankers Association report shows. This isn\u2019t unexpected, given large upswings in deal velocity across nearly all commercial real estate sectors. CommercialEdge data shows that, between January and November 2021, office and industrial investment transactions increased by a respective 31 percent and 46.3 percent compared to the year before.<\/p>\n

CBRE landed the top spot in this year\u2019s Top 20 Commercial Mortgage Banking and Brokerage Firms ranking, based on a combination of factors that included more than $78 billion in loan originations from October 2021 through September 2022, the highest in terms of volume, and 16 percent growth compared to the same time frame last year. <\/span><\/p>\n

Second-place KeyBank and third-place Newmark came close to tying on volume, with Newmark achieving an impressive 53 percent increase year-over-year. Among the top 10, Cushman & Wakefield turned in the greatest growth, at 59 percent, placing sixth behind the higher-volume Walker & Dunlop and Berkadia.<\/p>\n

Nearly all participating lenders indicated double-digit origination growth between the two 12-month periods, averaging 42.4 percent across all respondents. The firm with the highest overall increase was Greysteel, which reported a massive, 192-percent jump in lending volume. The outlook for the coming year appears overwhelmingly positive, with nearly 95 percent of respondents indicating growth in originations.<\/p>\n

Methodology<\/h2>\n

The Top 20 Commercial Mortgage Banking and Brokerage Firms ranking of 2022 utilized self-reported data for all firms. Our ranking is calculated using a weighted formula based on a variety of factors, including total origination volume, coverage offered, growth in transaction volume and loan positioning, among others. The ranking represents what we feel is a logical balance between firm growth and market share, as well as sector diversity or specialization. Ranking factors are not limited to the data on this page.<\/p>\n
