Higher Interest Rates: What are Borrowers Thinking About?
With nearly $2.1 trillion of commercial and multifamily loans maturing through 2027, borrowers are navigating a “higher for longer” interest rate environment that is reshaping refinancing, extension, and disposition strategies. This program will explore how borrowers are approaching looming maturities, weighing whether to retain or exit assets, and deciding where to allocate new capital. Panelists will frame borrower decision trees, compare shifts across capital sources and underwriting, and translate forward rate curves into practical borrower actions—from refinancing and loan modifications to cap purchases, paydowns, and asset sales. Attendees will gain insight into how today’s elevated rate regime is influencing borrower behavior across property types and markets, and what that means for lenders, investors, and the broader CRE finance ecosystem.
