Office Landlord Debt Defaults Rising as Remote Work Takes Hold

The New York Post is reporting that “A growing number of office landlords are defaulting on loan payments as the rise of remote work causes more corporate tenants to rethink long-term leases". The story can be found at https://nypost.com/2023/02/21/office-landlord-debt-defaults-rise-as-remote-work-takes-hold-report/?utm_source=gmail&utm_campaign=android_nyp  

If New York City office landlords are defaulting on their mortgages, should commercial tenants in New York City with surplus space due to remote work or the recession also be asking for concessions such as a reduction in base rent or additional rent or seek to exit or terminate their leases? 

At Shenwick & Associates, we believe they should be, and we have helped many commercial tenants surrender, exit, or terminate their leases. We also work with their good guy guarantors to reduce or eliminate their exposure.

We recently helped a garment center company surrender their lease on very favorable terms and the post can be found at https://shenwick.blogspot.com/2023/01/office-lease-closing-termination-or.html
