This is according to the Mortgage Bankers Association\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mba.org\/news-and-research\/newsroom\/news\/2025\/04\/24\/total-commercial-real-estate-borrowing-and-lending-increased-16-percent-in-2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">2024 Commercial Real Estate\/Multifamily Finance Annual Origination Volume Summation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MBA\u2019s survey tracked $411 billion of loans closed by dedicated commercial mortgage bankers in 2024\u2014a 34 percent increase from the $306 billion reported in 2023. Activity from smaller and mid-sized depositories is estimated from other data sources to arrive at the $498 billion estimate for the total market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCommercial real estate lending rebounded to $498 billion in 2024, up 16 percent from the prior year and driven largely by multifamily activity and continued strength from dedicated mortgage banking firms, which closed $411 billion in loans,\u201d said Reggie Booker, MBA\u2019s Associate Vice President of Commercial Real Estate Research. \u201cWhile still below 2021\u2019s record originations activity, the market showed renewed momentum. With an estimated $957 billion in CRE mortgage maturities coming due this year, demand for refinancing and new capital will be key drivers of market activity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dedicated mortgage banking firms reported closing $411 billion of CRE loans in their own names and serving as intermediaries on $303 billion. Firms reported serving as investment sales brokers for $247 billion of deals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014Posted on May 27, 2025<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The total volume grew by 16 percent from the previous year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3703,"featured_media":1004758932,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21825,37753,21742,37749],"tags":[47726],"class_list":["post-1004758930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-finance","category-research-center-finance","category-latest","category-research-center-cpe","tag-mortgage-bankers-assocation"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
