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:
