4 A Golden Age for Multifamily In our 15 CRE Debt Outlook, we articulated the view that GSE lending will accelerate in 15, given increasing demand for rental properties as the home ownership rate has fallen to 6, the lowest level since 1Q95. At the same time, the FHFA has affirmed that the GSEs have a critical ongoing role in the multifamily sector with a strategic goal to maintain market liquidity, rather than shrinking their footprint. This is creating what David Brickman (Executive Vice President for the Multifamily Business at Freddie Mac) described as a golden age for multifamily that will not be ending anytime soon. Agency CMBS are guaranteed by the US government or one of the Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs). The underlying CRE assets are primarily multifamily properties, but may also include healthcare properties as well as small business owners with public policy goals such as affordable housing and community development. We see opportunities across Freddie K deals, FNMA DUS loans and GNMA project loans, with each product offering unique opportunities and risks. The inclusion of CMBS issued and backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Barclays US Aggregate and Global Aggregate Indices as of June, 14 may be a further tailwind as it improves the depth and breadth of demand for these bonds in both the primary and secondary markets, in our view. Furthermore, the implementation of LCR rules may increase bank demand for these products. Source: Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Bloomberg, Morgan Stanley Research

Underwriting and credit reviews are completed by Freddie Mac, and CME loans are underwritten to the same standards as loans held in Freddie Mac s portfolio. Approved lenders may underwrite, close and sell loans on multifamily properties to Fannie Mae without prior Fannie Mae review. DUS stands for Delegated Underwriting Servicing, which are the origination and servicing guidelines for Fannie Mae s multifamily lending program. There are currently 24 DUS lenders that usually retain a risk position in the loans. The loans are underwritten by FHA-approved lenders, subject to minimum guidelines including LTV and DSCR Guarantor Guarantee Freddie Mac guarantee (senior classes) Freddie Ks guarantee the timely payment of interest and ultimately payment of principal on the guaranteed certificates. Fannie Mae guarantee Full recovery and timely payment of principal and interest. Yield maintenance payments are not guaranteed Full faith and credit of U.S. government The FHA guarantees ultimate payment of interest and principal on the loans while GNMA makes up for the inadequacies by guaranteeing both the timeliness of principal and interest payments and by paying the assignment fee in the event of a default. Pricing Assumptions CPR CPY: zero defaults and no prepayments after lockout 15% CPJ: 15% CPR after lockout and standard project loan default (PLD) curve.

6 Apartments Lead the Rebound in CRE Fundamentals

7 Rental Demand Increases as Homeownership Rates Fall Credit availability (or lack thereof) is playing a role in people s inability to own homes. Homeownership Rates Have Fallen to 6 In our view, demand for rental properties is driven by fewer people who are willing and/or able to own homes. Indeed, after peaking at 69. in 4, the homeownership rate has fallen to 6, a rate we last saw in 2Q While we have seen credit standards ease on the margin, they are still at much tighter levels than they have been historically. Further, the lack of private capital in the housing finance market specifically with respect to the private-label MBS market has severely limited the amount of lending to tail borrowers at the lower end of the credit-score spectrum. In 6, mortgages in private-label securitization accounted for 36% of total originations. Today their share is only.5%. Credit availability is especially tight for first-time homebuyers. The Qualified Mortgage (QM) definition, a new regulation mandated by Dodd-Frank, has been effective since January, 14, and relies on the back-end debt-to-income ratio not exceeding 4. For the age cohort, the typical age group for first-time homebuyers, high student loan balances further compound affordability and availability challenges. The large millennial generation is starting to reach the age groups where household formation usually peaks. According to the Joint Center for Housing Studies (JCHS) of Harvard University, millennials are expected to form 24 million new households between 15 and 25.

8 Positive Lending Growth Multifamily & GSE Lending Volumes Remain High Change in Year-over-Year Originations Among investor types, the dollar volume of loans originated by the GSEs grew the most YoY, by 119%. Life insurance and CMBS conduit originations increased at a slower pace, by 8% and 6% respectively. Meanwhile, origination by commercial banks fell by 7%. On a YoY basis, loan origination rose the most in multifamily and industrial properties, by 39% and 2 respectively. Retail and hotel saw volumes grow by 16% and 1 respectively, while office only grew by and health care declined by 8%.

9 Property Prices: Commercial vs. Housing Recovery CRE Recovery Further Outpacing Housing Recovery The Moody's / RCA Commercial Property Price Index (CPPI) shows that the National All-Property composite increased by 15.9% YoY in February, still outpacing the price appreciation in housing. The S&P / Case-Shiller Composite- City Home Price Index (Case-Shiller), which is reported on a greater lag, increased by 4.6% YoY in January. In terms of indexed prices, the National All-Property CPPI has now recovered 117. of its 7-8 peak-to-trough losses. This is substantially more than the amount Case-Shiller has recovered, 53.7%. Despite some signs of normalization in price appreciation of Commercial and Housing earlier in 14, the recovery in CRE has since decoupled to again outpace housing.

10 Apartment Leading the Recovery in Prices Major Markets Price Appreciation Continue to Outpace Non-Major Markets Major markets have recovered 155.7% of their peak-to-trough losses, while non-major markets have recovered only 88. of theirs. Major market prices grew 16.7% in February YoY,.4 percentage points faster than the prior month. Meanwhile non-major market prices increased by 15. YoY,.8 percentage points faster than the previous month. Out of the main property types, apartment prices have recovered the most since the crisis, recouping 167.7% of peak-to-trough losses, while retail and industrial have recouped the least (78.9% and 94.8%, respectively). The subsectors with the fastest YoY price growth are major market industrial and non-major market suburban office, 24. and 18.6% respectively. This contrasts with major-market retail, which saw prices grow by only 3. YoY. Note: Major and Non-Major market breakouts of each property sector are quarterly data, all else is monthly. Peaks are pre-crisis (7-8), troughs are post-crisis (9-). Hotel indices less comparable to other sectors due to data differences. Source: Moody s / RCA, Morgan Stanley Research

13 Major Market Historical Rents Multifamily rents grew 3.6% YoY in 4Q14 and have moved higher over the past several years due to a combination of a relatively limited new supply of properties and increased demand for rentals as home ownership declined. Office rents have also trended higher, with recent year-overyear growth of approximately 3., and are currently 3.5% below the 8 peak. Retail has lagged, with rents only starting to meaningfully increase in and now growing at a pace of 2. YoY.

14 Major Market Supply, Vacancies, Net Absorptions New Supply Picking Up in Multifamily The new supply of properties remains well below the 7 peak for all property types. Multifamily completions are back to 4Q13 levels after briefly pulling back in 1Q14. At the same time, vacancies are trending lower across all property types. Multifamily vacancies have fallen to 4. over recent years, driven by a shift from home ownership to rental. However, retail and office vacancies remain above %, which is significantly higher than in 7. Net absorptions have generally remained relatively stable over the past several years, suggesting a balance of supply and demand. The recovery in multifamily starts is outpacing that of single family, with multifamily starts reach 25-year highs.
