Capital Market Borrowers Continue to Enjoy Low Rates


John Oharenko
Chicago, IL, Oct. 2, 2019 – According to The Real Estate Capital Institute, this year’s Fed’s second quarter-point rate cut was expected, as markets calmly reacted to the lower pricing. 

 Investors found the hike to yield mixed results.  Floating-rate debt clearly benefited, especially prime-based loans. 
 On the other hand, permanent debt, based upon the 10-year benchmark treasury, is only about 10 basis points lower.  In fact, this index, along with the 5-year treasury, is over 20 basis points higher than the beginning of last month.

 The Real Estate Capital Institute’s® executive director, John Oharenko, suggests, "As the five and ten-year treasury spreads narrow, inverted yield curve portend a recession is near. 

 However, the economy continues humming along for nearly a decade with no end in sight, at least in the immediate future.”

Borrowers continue to enjoy some of the lowest rates within the longest post-war economic boom on record.  Mortgage spreads remain unchanged, as the capital markets are flush with cash. 

 Lending discipline remains intact, as banks and other financial institutions maintain underwriting standards including, for example, 7.5% or greater debt yields and leverage ratios of 70% for senior debt.

 As floating-rate debt pricing continues benefiting from a stable and low-interest-rate environment, lenders incorporate mortgage language for replacing the LIBOR index over the next couple of years.  However, no clear index has emerged yet.

 All in all, permanent loans are starting in the lower 3%-range for conservatively leveraged loans based on 10-year terms.  

Otherwise, most loans are priced in the mid-to-higher-3% range.  Rates of 4% (or more) are reserved for structured debt with higher leverage, in tertiary markets, etc.

JLL closes $25.7 million sale of Publix-anchored center in Pensacola, FL


Brad Peterson
ORLANDO, FL JLL announced it has closed the $25.7 million sale of Santa Rosa Commons, a 138,850-square-foot, Publix-anchored retail center in the Pensacola-area community of Pace, Florida.

JLL marketed the property on behalf of the seller. Stirling Properties purchased the asset.

Santa Rosa Commons is located 10 miles from downtown Pensacola in one of northwest Florida’s fastest-growing areas. The property is anchored by Publix, the No. 1 grocer in Florida. 

The next closest Publix east of the property is more than 35 miles away, allowing Santa Rosa Commons to benefit from an extended trade area. 

Whitaker Leonhardt
Completed in 2008, Santa Rosa Commons is 95.5% leased to a variety of tenants, including T.J. Maxx, PetSmart, Shoe Carnival, Maurice’s, GameStop, Sally Beauty, Anytime Fitness, Chili’s, Wasabi House Restaurant and GNC. The center is shadow anchored by Target and The Home Depot.

The JLL Capital Markets team that represented the seller was led by Senior Managing Director Brad Peterson, Senior Director Whitaker Leonhardt, Director Michael Brewster and Associate Ryan Stoffer along with Senior Managing Director Coler Yoakam.

“Santa Rosa Commons is a high-performing retail destination in the Florida Panhandle anchored by a strong-performing Publix and complemented by the other large national tenants,” Peterson said. 

Michael Brewster 
“The Pensacola retail market continues to perform well relative to many other markets in the Southeast, primarily driven by Pensacola’s low unemployment rate; high barriers to entry because of the geography; and the continued growth of the military, healthcare and tourism industries.”

“We had a lot of interest in this asset because of these unique dynamics of the area, and this is an ideal acquisition for the buyer to continue to bolster their presence throughout the Gulf region,” Leonhardt added.
