KBS Realty Advisors Fund Faces Uncertainty Amidst Commercial Real Estate Challenges

From the desk of Jim Eccleston at Eccleston Law 

According to a regulatory filing cited by the Dallas Morning News, KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III has raised concerns about its future viability.

The fund, which owns over $1.2 billion in office properties across several states, including significant holdings in Dallas, indicated that the current commercial real lending environment raises doubts about its ability to continue as a going concern.

As reported by DI Wire, the value of its properties reportedly has dropped by nearly $350 million since September of the previous year. In part, the fund attributed the decline to the impact of the pandemic-induced shift to remote work, particularly affecting its office towers in San Francisco.

KBS REIT III recently faced a write-down of $51 million on a San Francisco office building, with reports indicating that Strada is set to acquire the property for $60 million. The fund also is confronting $1.7 billion in loan maturities over the next 12 months, prompting considerations of relinquishing ownership of certain secured properties to mortgage lenders.
