By Matt Valley ATLANTA — In an unsettled world, the capital markets have ironically proven to be relatively stable this year. That’s helped pave the way for the rebound in financing across the seniors housing sector, lenders say. But they are quick to add that construction financing remains difficult to secure for most developers. For much of this year, the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield has fluctuated between 4.2 and 4.6 percent, a relatively narrow range compared with the high volatility experienced in the three years prior. In 2022, for example, the 10-year yield started the year at approximately 1.5 percent and reached 4.2 percent roughly 11 months later. Because a large percentage of commercial real estate loans are priced off the 10-year yield, the benchmark rate’s recent stability is significant, say lenders. And there is potentially more good news on the horizon.
