 ”A Peak of $372 Billion of loans maturing in 2013″

As a wave of real estate debt matures in the coming years, those with the strongest balance sheets will be best positioned to take advantage of troubled porperties hitting the market.

Record levels of maturing debt will create challenges for commercial real estate.  This year, $363 billion of loans-direct mortgages, mortgages tied to commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) and loans from life insurance companies-are expected to come due, up from $346 billion in 2011, according to research firm Trepp.  That compares with $223 billion in 2007, and an expected peak of $372 billion of loans maturing in 2013.
