Omaha, NE-IA shows mixed CRE distress signals. Store closures are elevated with 6 closures (rank 70th of 392 by count, 220th by rate), but this is driven by metro size — the rate of 1.41 per 100k jobs sits below the median. Bank CRE at lenders over the noncurrent line is also elevated at $472.4mm (rank 67th of 393 by count, 212th by rate), yet similarly size-driven with a rate of 2.99% below median. Layoff notices (WARN) are quiet at 0 notices. The securitized loans in special servicing reading is unavailable — the signal cannot be measured here, so its low numbers reflect an absence of measurement, not an absence of distress. The two disagreeing pairs (closures vs. WARN, and WARN vs. bank CRE) suggest small-operator failure below the WARN filing floor, plus lender stress with no employment event behind it.

In Omaha, NE-IA, the elevated distress signals are bank-distressed CRE and closures (store closures). Bank-distressed CRE is flagged by distressed lender CRE of $472.4mm (20.6% of bank CRE allocations of $15.79bn) and 22.8% of bank CRE at the 90th percentile. The ground is wobbling with 6 store closures in the past year, though the reading on clarity is obscured: the securitized side cannot be read here because $0.0mm in CMBS special servicing (0.0% of metro UPB) is a gap in the tape — all 2 loans in special servicing carry no balance — not an absence of distress. Additionally, the bank distressed-assets figure of 0.2 billion and 1 distressed bank are provided, but WARN notices (0) and the convergence metric (2) offer limited signal, and the materiality is immaterial.

In Omaha, NE-IA, banks have ample capacity to refinance the metro’s maturing CMBS, with the market reading in the "slack" band. The metro’s $17.4mm maturing balance across 2 loans represents only 0.04 of available room after committed draws, a ratio well below the median of 0.20 and ranking it 240 of 270 from the most strained — indicating less strain than typical. With $475.8mm in room after committed draws and $788.0mm before them, local banks have significant headroom, and the distressed share sits at 0.0%. This leaves the market comfortably positioned, though the reading reflects only the CMBS wall visible here, and the 35 qualifying banks versus 8 excluded underscores that capacity is concentrated in regional and community lenders.
In the Omaha, NE-IA metro over the past 365 days, on-the-ground activity has been limited but notable. Specifically, there have been 1 CRE-likely bankruptcy filings (a state-proxy count, not metro-native), 6 store closures, and 1 WARN notice affecting 0 jobs (a floor, as notices without a stated headcount contribute zero). The reading for additional layoff headcounts is unavailable beyond that figure.
