Delving into the Agency CMBS Market

4/12/2022

 
While surging house prices continue to be the focus of market participants, the rental market is increasingly attracting the attention of policymakers, both because of the impact on inflation[1] and the importance of this market for the economic wellbeing of lower-income households[2]. In both cases, there is a widespread consensus regarding the need for new supply to ameliorate these problems. There are many factors that come into play regarding the construction of new rental units, including the availability of private and public sources of credit.
​
As part of its quarterly release of the "Financial Accounts of the United States"[3], the Federal Reserve publishes data that allows us to break down the trend in total multifamily lending into major categories of credit risk holders:

Tracking the Disposition of GSE Loans in Forbearance: Borrower Assistant Plan Transitioning

3/15/2022

 
In a recent post, we mentioned that the 24-month timeline for the purchase of delinquent loans out of pools implied that this activity would not pick up until April 2020[1]. However, some leading indicator of loan disposition was available through the release of trial modification data in the Borrower Assistance Plan (BAP) field released in the monthly Agency disclosures. Once loans have completed three months of successful payments in this plan, they are eligible to be purchased out for the commencement of a permanent modification, and eventual resecuritization.
​
A loan in trial modification plan (trial mod) can transit into the following state the next month:
  1. Mortgagor payoff: this is an unlikely outcome, as loans in trial mod are troubled loans.
  2. Repurchase: Being repurchased out of the pool --- this typically should not happen after giving the loan 3 months in the trial.
  3. Forbearance: also unlikely, most loans in trial mod should have used forbearance plan already.
  4. Trial Period Plan: loans in trial mod for just 1 or 2 months should stay in trial mod for a least another month.
  5. No Plan: trial mod terminated however did not result in a repurchase immediately.
  6. Other or N/A: status not available.

The number of loans in these programs continues to grow, standing at 37,957 in February 2022, with a balance of about $8.3 billion, up from 9,911 and $2.1 billion in March 2021. The evolution of the disposition of loans is shown in the following chart:

Property Inspection Waiver Usage Declines

3/9/2022

 
​We’ve noticed that the prevalence of appraisal waivers for purchase mortgages within the eligible population peaked in Q4 last year, and recently has gone into steep decline. Our working thesis as to what is behind this trend is that lenders are getting concerned about the rapid pace of home price increases and want the additional security associated with an on-site appraisal. If this is indeed the case, we should see a greater decline in this share for larger mortgages than for smaller ones. So we break up the universe by GSE, and by loans above and below 2021’s conforming loan limit of $548,250:
