What did I miss?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, we\u2019re all feeling some optimism after the Fed rate cut on Sept. 18th. However, the reality is that market movements\u2014namely, the 10-year (and other) treasuries\u2014began earlier in anticipation of the rate cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When treasuries move, regardless of their maturity, they directly impact lending and refinancing options, especially on commercial loans. Home mortgage loan rates are also dropping quickly, but commercial loan rates are important to note because most lenders are stuck with high treasuries that limit loan proceeds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=1004732950&amp;action=edit\">Florida Industrial Still Hasn&#8217;t Run Out of Gas<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>To understand how this works, let\u2019s look at the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lender will examine an asset\u2019s risk profile and how likely it is that a borrower will pay off the lender at maturity. Lenders with elevated treasuries are limited in loan proceeds to ensure the borrower can pay them off when the loan matures. This is called a debt service coverage ratio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The DSCR divides the asset\u2019s net income by the amount of cash needed to pay the interest and principal on the debt. As interest rates go up, the denominator in this formula goes up. Unless we expect considerable increases in the net income (which would mean higher rents), the interest rate payments can skyrocket<a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkviewfinancial.com\/\">, <\/a>limiting the take-out loan upon maturity. This jump is what many real estate borrowers have experienced over the last two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, the treasuries begin to drop when the Fed signals a future rate cut (hopefully, there will be more to come). On reflection, the 10-year treasury was close to 5 percent in October 2023. That same index was below 3.75 percent in September 2024 (Note: at the time of this publication, rates may have started to creep up again\u2014a sign that anything can happen\u2014and quickly). The change from 5 percent to under 4 percent is a significant drop, and the above formula can quickly create more loan proceeds for borrowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-proof-positive\">Proof positive<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, more proceeds mean more dollars are being lent, and more money is circulating in capital markets. After stagnating for a long time\u2014about two years but what felt like longer in the real estate industry\u2014loan proceeds are finally increasing, rates are decreasing and loans are closing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, capital markets can move quickly with a rate drop and the expectation of more of them. Like my friend, many people in the commercial real estate industry have felt the well-received movement in the marketplace. While it didn\u2019t happen overnight, we are now seeing positive results come to fruition that began to simmer in anticipation of the Fed\u2019s latest announcement. I believe we are at the beginning of a new cycle, and that is something we can all celebrate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Paul Rahimian is CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkviewfinancial.com\/\">Parkview Financial<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s more to the improving lending conditions than just one rate cut, writes Parkview Financial&#8217;s Paul Rahimian.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1207,"featured_media":1004347088,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21684],"tags":[45671],"class_list":["post-1004732939","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-viewpoint","tag-parkview-financial"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What Happened to the Capital Markets?
