SitusAMC Achieves Top Ranking in Special Servicing
In a recent announcement, SitusAMC, a prominent name in the commercial real estate finance sector, has been recognized as the top special servicer in the U.S. for Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS), Single Asset Single Borrower (SASB), and Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs) based on issuance volume for the year 2025. According to data compiled by GreenStreet, the firm has achieved outstanding results, cementing its position as an industry leader.
In a remarkable year, SitusAMC was appointed special servicer for approximately
$30.2 billion in newly issued U.S. CMBS, indicating a
$10 billion increase compared to the previous year. This figure represents an impressive
24% market share, the largest among all special servicers in the sector. Additionally, the firm also expanded its CLO coverage, supporting
$7.4 billion in 2025, which accounts for another
24% market share. This growth underscores SitusAMC's reputation as a trusted partner for issuers, investors, and stakeholders navigating the complexities of the market.

The expertise of SitusAMC's team allows them to manage complex situations while ensuring that they protect value and align the interests of all stakeholders involved.
