MLCFC 2007-5: $48MM in losses write down Class D

It looks as if the Fort Henry Mall, a loan just under $40MM in this deal, was liquidated at a loss of ... $40MM.  A couple of other smaller loans contributed another $8MM in losses.  For those who follow this blog (and I realize that you are few but interested in this market sector), I repeat what I have previously stated.  MLCFC = P.O.S.!

(see last month's post on this deal where another $55MM transfers to special servicing)

CSMC 2006-C4: Babcock & Brown again?

The big news today in case you are marooned on a desert island is that
Stuy Town sold for $5.4B, which should be enough to make senior 
bondholders whole with respect to principal and unpaid interest.  I 
think it's a pretty good deal all around (except if you were a mezz 
lender) in that Blackstone's cost is half the average market rate per 
apartment, and the rights of the non-market rate tenants are protected
for a number of years.

In the meantime, CS continued its love affair with bad multifamily 
lending.  Where are you,Andy Stone?  (answer: Petra Capital Mgmt)

BACM 2005-5: such an innocent deal, until 38% transferred to special servicing!

This from S&P:

The Wateridge Office Park loan ($83mn, 34% of pool, CA office), largest in the BACM 2005-C5 transaction, was transferred to the special servicer due to maturity default. The loan was previously on the watchlist due to low occupancy. Currently the property is at 80% occupancy, with a DSCR of 0.78x, which has increased compared to 0.43x last year, but remains well below the underwritten level due to a decrease in base rent & increase in real estate taxes and General & Administrative expenses.


The Orchard Plaza ($10mn, 4% of pool, MI retail), the fourth largest in the transaction, was also transferred to the special due to maturity default. The loan was previously on the watchlist due to low DSCR. Currently the property has a DSCR of 0.71x, which was little changed compared to last year. The decline in DSCR from the underwritten level was due to a 22% decrease in base rent and a 65% increase in expenses.

Yeehah!  I wonder if any of the three analytics providers will bother to update their data in advance of next month's reporting.  Probably not.

Here's the watchlist comment:

Subject property is a 165,575 sf mix-use retail property located in Wilmington, DE built in 1997. UW NCF DSCR was 1.31x with 96.10% occupancy.

6/12/2015 As of June 1, 2015, the property was 40% occupancy. Per Borrower's contact, the property is being marketed through Acadia's internal leasing group and listed the vacancies with local representation equipped for office and non-conforming, non-retail uses.  Borrower is considering not only single users but also smaller format tenants in the 14,000 - 25,000 square foot range which would require the space to be divided. Borrower blasts this to over 7,000 contacts internally and externally.  They do email marketing to a focused local list of brokers as well as to a wider group of national tenants as well as marketing during International Council of Shopping Center (ICSC) events.

6/5/2015 1Q 2015 NCF DSCR = 1.25x at 86% occupancy. Reached out to Borrower for updates on the vacancies. Tenant Access Group should have vacated at lease expiration and if it hasn't been leased up, the properties occupancy may have declinded to 40%. Also, requested from the Borrower to update their rent roll as it still includes the Halloween Store that no longer occupies the premises.

3/5/2015 YE 2014 NCF DSCR = 1.41x at 86% occupancy. Borrower's contact indicates the Halloween store remains vacant and the tenant Access Group that expires in May will not be renewing. They are actively marketing both spaces, but not prospects at this time. Will keep us updated if there are movements.

12/4/2014 3Q 2014 NCF DSCR = 1.40x at 98% occupancy. Largest tenant Access Group occupies 76,458 sf (46% NRA)  to expire 5/31/2015. Reached out to Borrower's contact for leasing updates along with tenant, Halloween City who was only seasonal. What are the marketing plans for the vacancies. Awaiting for response.

Fitch sends out a weekly comment about the state of the CMBS market which includes any special servicing transfers of loans over $20MM.  However, in their rush to get out the door on Fridays, they send it in the morning.  This transfer to special servicing was reported as usual in the afternoon.  One more reason to love Fitch!

In fact, because payment date for this deal is the 17th, no one would have seen the watchlist before yesterday (today is 6/18).  So, investors effectively had one day to decide whether to act on this.  This is why we love Fitch!

Biker Gang Shootout exposure

The Waco shootout occurred at Twin Peaks*, which is part of the complex that includes the Central Texas Marketplace, but is not actually part of the collateral as far as we can tell.

Central Texas Marketplace secures a $45.4mm loan in WBCMT 2007-C31. The loan has a 1.93x DSCR and was appraised for $78mm in 2003.Occupants include Belk, Kohl's, Sports Authority.

There is smaller loan, also named Central Texas Marketplace that is in an outparcel in the same complex, but on the opposite side from the shooting. It is collateral for a $2mm loan in GCCFC 2006-GG7, valued at $2.65mm in 2006, and a 2014 1.34x DSCR. Occupants include Squires, David's Bridal.

*Twin Peaks is a breastaurant that is in an outparcel that is not part of the collateral.

MLCFC 2006-4: A bad deal gets some good news

Park LaBrea apartments in L.A. paid off with $18MM of yield maintenance, giving someone at Freddie Mac a good day.  Shortfalls were replenished down to class G.  Still, there were $60MM in losses on two other crap loans, which fully wrote down class H.  Still not an AJ I would recommend to Grandma!

Another winner from the folks that brought you ... every other post-2006 BACM deal.  This is a 10 year I/O with 22 months left to go that recently lost a tenant,  According to the data, the Sponsor on the loan is none other than "None".

The loan matures in a year and a half.  The watchlist comment says nothing about why a non-monetary default is imminent.  Obviously, a mall built in 1957 is likely not attracting tier 1 tenants. Anyone feel like doing some research, or is it going to have to be me?

Silly loan corner - Sierra Vista Mall

There hasn't been a lot of activity in CMBS collateral these last couple of months, but it is of note that Sierra Vista Mall in COMM 2006-C8 became REO in March.  What makes this loan special is that it was written for $77,777,777.  Did the folks at Deutsche Bank convince the borrower that he would get lucky?   Apparently, the special servicer does not share the same sense of humor as the originator judging by their terse commentary:

 03/04/2015 - This is a single property loan which has become REO.

Profiles in Garbage: LBUBS 2007-C6

If you are a serious CMBS investor, it should have long ago dawned on you that there are 
certain deals/shelves that just flat out suck.  LBUBS is one of them, MLCFC is another, 
CSMC ranks right up there.  To be fair, there are other deals such as MSC 2008-T29 which 
would make you look like a genius if you bought them early on.

Here is today's proof of the pudding.
