“Not surprisingly, 2020 took a toll on even commercial real estate’s beloved industrial market. The pandemic brought tighter lending standards with the average industrial loan falling 13 percent to $10.3 million. Investors were also forced to put up additional capital as the typical loan-to-value ratio fell 70 basis points to 66.4 percent. However, as economic activity picked up during the fourth quarter, so did industrial lending. Even as the overall commercial lending market collapsed by 18 percent year-over-year, the industrial sector led the way expanding by 15 percent (Wealth Management). With cap rates falling to historical lows in the first quarter, it’s clear that the lending momentum has continued into the new year.” -Adam Abushagur
