The Moody s/real Commercial Property Price Indices (CPPI) measure the change in actual transaction prices for commercial real estate assets based on the repeat sales of the same assets at different points in time. 1 Notable Observations and Themes» The National All Property Type Aggregate Index recorded a 1.3% increase in October, the second consecutive month of price gains. The number of repeat-sale transactions remains low and Moody s expects prices to remain choppy until transaction volumes increase.» Three of the four property types in the East recorded price increases with large positive gains for office and retail. Industrial was the only property type in the East to measure a decline.» Two property types in the South, apartments and industrial, realized positive gains of about 40%. The other two property types, office and retail, experienced negative returns. Three of the four property types continue to underperform their respective national types since the peak.» The four property type indices for Southern California also had mixed results over the past year, with two property types, industrial and office, measuring positive returns, while apartments and retail had negative returns.» All three of the major office market indices performed worse than their respective regional office index. Of the three indices, only San Francisco Office recorded a negative return, falling 16.8% over the past four quarters.» Florida apartments measured a 33.5% increase in prices in the past four quarters. Prices have regained some of the value lost last year, when prices dropped 46.1%. 1 A summary or short version of the repeat sales methodology is available in a Moody s Special Report. US CMBS: Moody s Publishes the First Commercial Property Price Indices Based on Commercial Real Estate Repeat Sales Data. Sept. 19, 7.

Sept. 26, 7. 3 DECEMBER 21, 2010 SPECIAL REPORT: MOODY S/REAL COMMERCIAL PROPERTY PRICE INDICES, DECEMBER 2010

National All Property Type Aggregate Index The National All Property Type Aggregate Index is a monthly series, and this report is based on data through October 31, 2010. Refer back to Figure 1. Moody s/real National All Property Type Aggregate Index recorded its second consecutive month with a price increase, gaining 1.3%. This rise in prices is following three large monthly declines. For the first ten months of 2010, half of the months have had price increases, while the other half have measured declines. This month s increase in prices is in spite of the fact that October had the second highest percentage of distressed loans in the history of the index, totaling 30% of the repeat-sale transactions. Repeat-sale transaction counts remain low. We expect commercial real estate prices to remain choppy until transaction volumes pick up, indicating that the bid-ask spread for commercial real estate has begun to tighten. FIGURE 3 Moody s/real CPPI: Monthly Value Changes 6% Monthly Value Change (%) 4% 2% 0% -2% -4% -6% -8% -10% Jan 08 Feb 08 Mar 08 Apr 08 May 08 Jun 08 July 08 Aug 08 Sep 08 Oct 08 Nov 08 Dec 08 Jan 09 Feb 09 Mar 09 Apr 09 May 09 June 09 July 09 Aug 09 Sep 09 Oct 09 Nov 09 Dec 09 Jan 10 Feb 10 Mar 10 Apr 10 May 10 Jun 10 Jul 10 Aug 10 Sep 10 Oct 10 The balance and number of repeat-sale transactions in October declined from prior months. There were 110 repeat-sale transactions, totaling slightly less than $1.4 billion. The number of repeat-sale transactions are less than the average for 2010, but still above the lows that occurred throughout 9. The average size of the transactions also declined from last month, primarily because there were only six transactions over $50 million, compared to 17 in September. 4 DECEMBER 21, 2010 SPECIAL REPORT: MOODY S/REAL COMMERCIAL PROPERTY PRICE INDICES, DECEMBER 2010

Eastern Region Property Type Indices The Eastern Region Property Type Indices for the four major property types is an annual series, based on one year of data on a rolling basis and updated each quarter. This index is based on data for the four quarters: Q4 9, Q1 2010, Q2 2010, and Q3 2010, thus culminating with data through the end of the third quarter of 2010. Over the past four quarters, three property type indices in the East realized positive price gains, with two of the four types outperforming their respective national indices during this period. Since the peak, all four property types in the East have outperformed their respective national indices.

Retail properties in the East had the second largest price increase in the region, measuring a rise of 16.1%. This increase is significantly better than the results for national retail prices, which declined 11.6% in the past year.

Two property types in the South saw annual price declines over the past four quarters. On the other hand, southern industrial and apartments had large increases in price. FIGURE 7 Moody's/REAL CPPI: South Property Type Indices 2 National Aggregate Office Retail Apartments Industrial Index, Q1 00-Q4 00 = 1 Q4 00-Q3 01Q4 01-Q3 02Q4 02-Q3 03Q4 03-Q3 04Q4 04-Q3 05Q4 05-Q3 06Q4 06-Q3 07Q4 07-Q3 08Q4 08-Q3 09Q4 09-Q3 10 Based on data through September 2010 or end of the 3rd quarter. After experiencing a significant price decrease last year, Southern apartments realized the largest price increase in the region, rising 41.3% in the past four quarters. Southern apartments also outperformed national apartments which increased 15.5% over the same period.

Major Office Market Indices Three major office markets typically experience enough transactions to support at least an annual series for each of those cities: New York, San Francisco, and Washington DC. This index is based on data for the four quarters: Q4 9, Q1 2010, Q2 2010, and Q3 2010, thus culminating with data through the end of the third quarter of 2010. All three of the major office market indices performed worse than their respective regional office index in the past year. FIGURE 9 Moody's/REAL CPPI: Major Office Markets Indices Index, Q1 00-Q4 00 = 2 1 National Office San Francisco Office Washington DC Office New York Office Q4 00-Q3 01 Q4 01-Q3 02 Q4 02-Q3 03 Q4 03-Q3 04Q4 04-Q3 05 Q4 05-Q3 06 Q4 06-Q3 07 Q4 07-Q3 08Q4 08-Q3 09 Q4 09-Q3 10 Based on data through September 2010 or end of the 3rd quarter. Washington DC had the best result of the three office indices, with prices increasing 17.3% in the past four quarters. This is worse than the 21.6% increase for eastern office during the same time period. However, in the past two years Washington, DC office is performing better than the East overall, with a decline of 14.4% in Washington, DC, compared to a 23.7% drop in the East. The New York office index, similar to Washington, DC, did not perform as strongly as the overall eastern office prices. New York office prices increased 9.1% in the past year. Unlike the Washington, DC office index, the New York office index has also performed worse than the East in the past two years, falling 32.5%. San Francisco has consistently performed worse than the other major office markets. The past year is no exception, with office prices falling 16.8%. The San Francisco office index is at the lowest point in its history. Similar to the New York office index, the San Francisco index has performed worse than the larger office index for the West overall, in both the past year and the past two years. In the past year, western office prices have fallen 9.5%. In the past two years, San Francisco office prices have dropped 34.6%, compared to 26.7% in the West. 9 DECEMBER 21, 2010 SPECIAL REPORT: MOODY S/REAL COMMERCIAL PROPERTY PRICE INDICES, DECEMBER 2010

Florida Apartment Index An aggregation of several Florida MSAs generally provides sufficient volume of apartment transactions to support an annual Florida Apartment series for Orlando, Tampa, and the three metropolitan divisions of the Miami MSA Fort Lauderdale, Miami and West Palm Beach. Like the other annual series using data from a rolling four quarters, this series culminates with data through the end of the third quarter of 2010. FIGURE 10 Moody's/REAL CPPI: Florida Apartment Index 2 National Apartments Florida Apartments Index, Q1 00-Q4 00 = 1 Q4 00-Q3 01 Q4 01-Q3 02 Q4 02-Q3 03 Q4 03-Q3 04 Q4 04-Q3 05 Q4 05-Q3 06 Q4 06-Q3 07 Q4 07-Q3 08 Q4 08-Q3 09 Q4 09-Q3 10 Based on data through September 2010 or end of the 3rd quarter. The Florida apartment index measured a large gain over the past four quarters with prices gaining 33.5%. This large gain is on the heels of a 46.1% decline in the prior year. In the past year, prices in Florida recovered part of that decline and in the past two years Florida apartment prices are down 28.0%.
