Commercial real estate and multifamily property mortgage loan originations were 12 percent higher in the fourth quarter of 2009 than during the same period last year, and 15 percent higher than the third quarter of 2009 according to a quarterly survey released by the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) Tuesday at its Commercial Real Estate Finance convention in Las Vegas.

“Commercial and multifamily mortgage originations picked up in the fourth quarter, but remain at a low level in absolute terms,” explained Jamie Woodwell, VP of commercial real estate research at MBA. “The trend shows stability coming back to the market, but the pick-up in volumes really indicates just how low origination levels had fallen.”

   I’d love to see this picking up continually over the following months.
