Trepp February Payoff Report: Percentage of Loans Paying at Maturity Remains Above 60%



NEW YORK, NY -- According to the Trepp January Payoff Report, the percentage of loans paying off on their balloon date has exceeded 60% for the fifth time in the last six months.

 In February, 61.8% of loans reaching their balloon date paid off--a decrease of about five percentage points from the January reading.

The February rate of 61.8% is well above the 12-month moving average of 49.2%. (This number sums the averages of each month and divides by 12, there was no balance weighting across the months.)

Six months ago, we noted that the payoff rate could move to the upside for the remainder of 2012. We mentioned that loans reaching their maturity date would likely be more heavily populated with loans from earlier vintages, and that assets from that time frame were made with lower leverage and more reasonable valuations.

The result should be better payoff numbers. Data from the past six months has confirmed this trend.
