Commercial real estate lending has been getting tighter through 2023. And according to CBRE, commercial mortgage lending continued to slow last quarter. Its CBRE Lending Momentum Index, which measures the rate at which it originates or brokers commercial loan closings, was down in the second quarter by 5.4% from Q1 and 52.2% down from the same period in 2022.
