9. CRE Lending Sees Slight Improvement - Monday, May 21, 2012

The commercial lending landscape in the Memphis area continues to grind its way through an extended period of gradual improvement that began roughly two years ago after a dismal 2009.

“Loans for A- and B-class commercial properties are back. The owners have plenty of choices now,” said Frank Stallworth, president of Magna Bank’s commercial and multifamily division. “There’s no question that values have declined compared to 2007, but for the most part those values have stabilized. 2011 was better than 2010, 2012 is shaping up better than last year, and we expect 2013 to better than 2012 as it relates to occupancies as well as stabilizing and possibly increasing rents in the various sectors of commercial real estate.”
