KBRA Named Ratings Agency Of The Year at Second Annual SFR Industry Awards

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA, a global full-service credit rating agency, is pleased to announce it was named winner in the Ratings Agency of the Year category at the Second Annual Single-Family Rental (SFR) Industry Awards ceremony held by Information Management Network on December 3rd in Scottsdale, Arizona.

The award recognized the best ratings agency servicing the SFR sector in the past year, according to IMN, and the judges considered factors such as share of securitization deals rated, econometric and industry reporting, transparency and timeliness of comments, as well as customer feedback.

“KBRA is excited to be given this honor,” said Nitin Bhasin, CFA, the Global Head of CMBS ratings at KBRA. “Winning this award is testament to the hard work and commitment of our seasoned new issue, surveillance analysts covering the SFR sector. The team has been steadfast in producing high quality, comprehensive, and timely ratings and research in the backdrop of sector headwinds arising from higher interest rates, stagnating home prices, and decelerating cash flow growth.”
