Debt Yield NYC Class A Office?

Anyone in the CMBS industry know what debt yields the industry is allowing on 65-70% LTV IO loans for class A midtown office buildings?

Just putting together an analysis for defeasing a loan and I know we can get there on LTV and DSCR but the debt yield will be the limiting factor here. I don't want to reach out to our lenders for guidance yet because I don't want to get hounded by them once they know we're thinking about refi'ing.

Gracias

SHB - in my opinion your thoughts are generally correct. CMBS is getting to 7.5% debt yield all day on high quality product and would very likely go to low 7s for Class A NYC office. Honestly wouldn't be shocked to see a 6 handle on something like this if great asset, location, sponsor, etc and still 65%-70% LTV. Idk about full term I/O on something in the 6s but have quoted it in the lows 7s.

Size will also be a factor. At $250MM you're still in a conduit securitization, get too much larger than that and it likely will have to go single-borrower which is a whole different execution

 

Even sub $250M could likely go single borrower execution. There are a number of deals actually in the pipeline right now in that range. Mostly Hotel/Retail though.

Recently, 200 Park went out at 8.8% all-in. 3 Bryant Park at 8.3. Single borrower though. As for conduit, most recent example I can think of is 150 Fifth Ave in GC29. Went out at 7.6. You can probably adjust downwards 10-20 bps if your loan has stronger asset quality. So I'd say 7.5 is realistic.
