A split market: Commercial real estate lending trends from Q1 2026

About this episode
From a 24% quarter-over-quarter rebound in lender quotes to the diverging paths of floating and fixed rate borrowers, the episode offers a data-driven read from Andrew Pabon, Director of Debt Advisory at Altus Group, on where the debt market stands today. Andrew and the CRE Exchange team also dig into the maturity wall, multifamily delinquencies hitting new highs, the lender mix leaning toward debt funds, and what the private credit stress story might mean for private credit in commercial real estate going forward.
