14 Nov 2025 | New York
KBRA downgrades the ratings of five classes of certificates and affirms all other outstanding ratings for CF 2019-CF3, a $735.0 million CMBS conduit transaction. The rating actions follow a surveillance review of the transaction, which has exhibited a worsening in pool performance since KBRA's last ratings change in November 2024 due to an increase in estimated losses from two top 10 K-LOCs (7.3% of the pool balance).
As of the October 2025 remittance period, there are two specially serviced assets (7.3%) which are both in foreclosure. KBRA identified nine K-LOCs (22.4%), including the specially serviced assets. Of the K-LOCs, five (9.4%) have estimated losses. The K-LOCs are depicted in the table below:
Excluding the K-LOCs with estimated losses, the transaction's WA KLTV is 93.8%, compared to 94.4% at KBRA's last ratings change in November 2024 and 95.5% at securitization. The KDSC is 2.53x, compared to 2.54x at KBRA's last ratings change and 2.53x at securitization.
Details concerning the classes with rating changes are as follows:
- Class E to BB (sf) from BBB- (sf)
