DBRS Morningstar Confirms Ratings on J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Trust 2021-410T

DBRS, Inc. (DBRS Morningstar) confirmed its ratings on the following classes of Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2021-410T issued by J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Trust 2021-410T:

-- Class A at AAA (sf)
-- Class B at AA (low) (sf)
-- Class C at A (low) (sf)
-- Class D at BBB (high) (sf)
-- Class HRR at BBB (sf)
-- Class X-A at AA (sf)

All trends are Stable.

The rating confirmations reflect a deal that is very early in its life cycle with limited reporting and no changes to the underlying performance since issuance.

The collateral is a 20-story, Class A office building in Manhattan's Hudson Yards on 10th Avenue between 33rd Street and 34th Street. The building is well situated in the highly desirable Hudson Yards submarket with good commuter rail and subway hubs positioned to the east and west of the building. It was originally built in 1927 and underwent a complete redevelopment between 2020 and 2021 costing $145.5 million, which was overseen by the prior owner, SL Green. The trust debt comprises a $300 million senior A note and a $185 million junior B note; total debt is $705 million, including senior and junior mezzanine debt. Proceeds were used primarily to complete the acquisition of the property by the sponsor, 601W Companies.

The deal closed in March 2021, and there has been little updated financial reporting since then. The property is 98% occupied as of the September 2021 rent roll, in line with 99% occupancy at issuance. Approximately 92% of the building's concluded in-place base rent is derived from investment-grade tenants that qualified for long-term credit tenant treatment in DBRS Morningstar's concluded net cash flow. Amazon leases approximately 335,000 sf at the property (53.1% of net rentable area (NRA)) and comprises 55% of base rent, while First Republic Bank leases approximately 212,000 sf of office and retail space at the property (33.4% NRA combined) and comprises 37% of base rent. Collectively, Amazon and First Republic Bank have a weighted-average scheduled remaining lease term of 14.6 years, which is well beyond the fully extended maturity date.
