NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- KBRA releases the October 2025 issue of CMBS Trend Watch.

As we approach year-end, commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) private label issuance is on track to have its strongest year since 2007. Helping us get there, our current visibility shows up to 21 potential deals in November including eight single-borrower (SB), seven conduit, five commercial real estate (CRE) collateralized loan obligations (CLO), and one Freddie Mac K-Series (Agency) deal. In October, 15 deals totaling $10.8 billion priced, representing a 17.1% increase on a year-to-date (YTD) year-over-year (YoY) basis.

In October, KBRA published pre-sales for seven deals ($6.6 billion), including four SB ($3.3 billion), two conduits ($2 billion), and one Agency ($1.3 billion).
