Question 1

What triggers a special servicing on a office in Miami?

Accepted Answer

When a CMBS loan transfers to special servicing, the servicer has an incentive to resolve the credit rather than foreclose. This creates a pre-REO window where note buyers and equity sponsors can negotiate directly. In Miami, the most common triggers for office buildings are condo deconversion pressure post-Surfside legislation, retail strip repositioning, Latin capital inflows. Identifying assets early in this sequence, before the situation becomes public, is the core of OffMarketX's sourcing model.

Question 2

How long does a special servicing process take for office buildings in Miami?

Accepted Answer

Timelines vary by jurisdiction and complexity. In FL, CMBS special servicing transfer processes for office buildings typically run 60 to 180 days from initiation to close, though contested matters can extend significantly. OffMarketX engages at the earliest stage to give buyers maximum time for diligence and negotiation before court or servicer timelines compress the process.

Question 3

Does OffMarketX list office buildings in Miami under special servicing?

Accepted Answer

No. OffMarketX is not a listing platform. We connect principals, sellers under CMBS special servicing transfer pressure with buyers who can close without a public process. Sellers sign a confidentiality agreement before any details are shared with buyers, and every transaction is structured principal-to-principal. There are no broker commissions on either side.
