Los Angeles sees 4 downtown office skyscrapers in distress with billions in defaulted loans, bids expected far below debt balances. Manufacturing & CRE Construction spend peaked over a year ago

“4 distressed office buildings in Los Angeles, California.

Brookfield and its lenders (and receivers and special servicers) are peddling four active offerings that total about 4.9M SF of Class A office space in the Financial District, roughly 18% of the total inventory.

EY Plaza: Colliers is marketing the $275M, non-preforming note tied to the property at 725 South Figueroa Street, in receivership. That note is expected to trade at a massive discount.

Bank of America Plaza: Colliers is shopping the defaulted CMBS loan connected to the skyscraper at 333 South Hope Street, in receivership. The debt balance is $400M and the brokerage anticipates substantially discounted bids.

Wells Fargo Center’s North Tower: Eastdil Secured is marketing the mortgage loan on 333 South Grand Avenue, which includes an office tower and a retail asset. The roughly $506M debt on the property is in default, though it is not in the hands of a receiver. Bids are anticipated around $196M.

Wells Fargo Center’s South Tower: Newmark is shopping the skyscraper — a sister to its sibling to the north — at 355 South Grand Avenue. Bids are anticipated to come in around $157M, not enough to cover the $263Mdebt balance that came due.
