Tapestry Glenview Apartments
290 units, Multifamily, Northbrook, IL [View Details]
This $57.5 million floating-rate loan, secured by Tapestry Glenview Apartments in Northbrook, IL, became 30 days delinquent in April 2022. The loan does not have a history of delinquency; however, occupancy levels have been suboptimal in recent years. Pre-pandemic occupancy at the property was 74% as of year-end 2019 but improved to 87% in 2020. The last reported occupancy for the property was 82% as of July 2021. Despite inconsistent occupancy, net cash flow at the property has been sufficient to cover debt service, even with interest rates rising during the past few months. There was no history of COVID-related forbearance being granted for the loan and the loan did not appear on the most recent master servicer’s watchlist. The delinquency is worth monitoring but a timely cure is a probable outcome. Other considerations for the loan include its near-term maturity, which is scheduled for September 1, 2024. Prior to the loan’s four-month open period, a prepayment penalty of 1% would be required to retire the debt. For the full valuation report and loan-level details, click here.

500 Station Boulevard
417 units, Multifamily, Aurora, IL [View Details]
Mortgage debt secured by 500 Station Apartments, a 417-unit property in Aurora, IL, appears to have been refinanced after April 2022 servicer data indicated a potential delay in repayment at the loan’s maturity date.

Additionally, the borrower had two, one-year extension options after the initial April 22, 2022 maturity date. The loan was marked delinquent in April but appears to have paid off in full according to servicer data from May 2022. The borrower’s business plan was to lease up vacant units at market rents while reducing operational inefficiencies.

24 units, Multifamily, Chicago, IL [View Details]
This $7.9 million loan, which is over 60 days delinquent, is secured by a 24-unit mid-rise apartment building in the West Loop submarket of Chicago. Servicer commentary indicates the borrower has been unresponsive and has not reported updated financials since March 2020.

Drexel Apartments
33 units, Multifamily, Chicago, IL [View Details]
This $2 million loan transferred to special servicing in September 2018 due to issues related to the borrowing entity’s involvement in a complaint by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The loan has had delinquency issues since its transfer to special servicing and is over 120 days delinquent. An Order Appointing Receiver was filed in August 2018 that prevents any party from pursuing foreclosure or any other remedy, which limits the special servicer’s options for workout. The collateral, multiple apartment buildings in Hyde Park, was reportedly sold by the receiver in May 2019; however any distributions from the proceeds from the sale must go through a litigation process that is ongoing.
