The CMBS properties our stress model flags here, plus recent store closures and layoffs. Stressed is a wider net than distressed — the distressed figure above counts only loans already in special servicing or 60+ days delinquent, while these dots also include performing loans facing maturity or coverage pressure. Property dots sit at the center of their ZIP code, not the building — they show where stress concentrates, not which asset. Closures and layoffs are pinned to address where we have it.

How much CRE distress is there in Tyler, TX right now?

In Tyler, TX, commercial real estate distress is generally subdued, with none of the four monitored signals currently elevated. The strongest read comes from the bank CRE sector, where $311.8mm of the $4,957.6mm allocated to the metro sits at lenders over the noncurrent line, a 6.29% rate that ranks 118th of 393 metros by rate and 89th by count — meaningful but not alarming. Store closures are tracking at 1.02 per 100,000 jobs (rank 266 of 392 by rate), and WARN layoff notices run 0.15% of employment (rank 142 of 386). The securitized-loans-in-special-servicing leg is unreadable here — the signal is present but its denominator is unavailable, so any low reading would be an absence of measurement, not evidence of calm. Of the six possible cross-checks among the legs, three agree on quiet, none disagree, and three are unadjudicated because one side is blind, reinforcing a picture of understated, not absent, stress.

Which distress signals are elevated in Tyler, TX, and which cannot be read?

In Tyler, TX, the inability to read the CMBS special-servicing figure is the key caveat: the CMBS special-servicing UPB is $0.0mm and the share of metro UPB is 0.0%, but this reflects a gap in the tape — all 2 loans in special servicing sit on rows carrying no balance — not an absence of distress. On the banking side, the only elevated signal is the presence of 1 distressed bank, with 0.7 in distressed bank assets and $311.8mm in distressed lender CRE, yet the bank CRE-at-risk figure is just 0.8% at the 90th percentile, and the overall convergence reading is 0, marking this as an isolated, immaterial signal rather than a credit-material one. No other distress signals are elevated, and readings on any other metrics are unavailable.

Jobs & Demand — the labor market under the collateralWatch it change →
Every other zone on this page reads the credit — what the loan is doing. This one reads the demand underneath it. Office jobs pay office rent; office rent services the office loan. When the jobs go, the DSCR follows — but not for another year or two. That lag is the whole point of looking here.

Monthly metro unemployment (BLS LAUS) — the freshest labor signal there is, about six weeks behind. Read the direction, not the level: a 4% metro that is rising and a 6% metro that is falling are not telling you the same thing.

Annual employment by sector (BLS QCEW, 2024; 98,295 jobs in the metro). QCEW lags — it is the structural read, not the current one, and we pair it with the monthly unemployment above on purpose. Office-using sums five supersectors; where BLS withholds any one of them for disclosure, we show nothing rather than a number we know is too low — so a missing sector here means “suppressed at the source,” not “zero.”

Distress Trend — is this market turning?Track it quarter by quarter →
Realized distress is FLAT0.0% now (2026-07), +0.0pp over the year.
Same definition as the cards above — distressed means in special servicing or 60+ days delinquent, dollar-weighted — on a different clock. The cards are today’s tape; this is the disclosed history panel, quarter by quarter, so you can read direction rather than level. Trusts file monthly, so a quarter is usually well covered within weeks of opening and the newest one shown is normally the current one; it is withheld only when its filed book falls below 60% of recent quarters.
Share of the metro’s CMBS in special servicing or 60+ days delinquent, by quarter — a firmer, backward-looking read. A loan under 1.0x DSCR that is still paying is not counted here.

* Two ratios, two perimeters. The large figure is supervisory CRE over total risk-based capital — construction, multifamily and non-owner-occupied nonfarm nonresidential. That is the book SR 06-26 draws its 300% line against, and it is what the red coloring and the room contributed are both measured on. Total beneath it adds owner-occupied CRE — lending to a business on its own premises — which the guidance deliberately leaves out. A bank can sit well above 300% on total CRE and still be inside the line, with real room to lend; both are shown so the gap is visible rather than surprising.
Banks are matched to their HQ metro (a proxy for footprint). Noncurrent CRE = CRE-balance-weighted blend of multifamily / nonresidential / construction noncurrent (distress already arrived). Early Warning is a validated leading signal — the bank’s 30-89 early-delinquency rank among all CRE lenders this quarter, which has predicted ~2.3× forward CRE distress. Per-bank flags are on a plan.

What has actually happened on the ground in Tyler, TX recently?

In the Tyler, TX metro over the past 365 days, on-the-ground distress has been limited but notable: there have been 4 CRE-related bankruptcy filings (a state-proxy count, not metro-native), 2 WARN notices affecting 170 jobs (a floor, as notices without stated headcounts contribute 0), and 1 approved store closure. Broader store-closure or additional layoff readings beyond these figures are unavailable.

Window, in days

STATE PROXY — bankruptcy filings carry the filer's state, not the property's location, so this counts CRE-likely filings in the states this metro's collateral sits in. It is not a metro-native count.
affected_employees is nullable — notices that state no headcount are counted but contribute 0 jobs, so this is a floor.
Closures are matched ZIP -> CBSA and only APPROVED rows count (a pending, machine-extracted row is not yet a closure). This mirrors the Metro Pulse page, not the convergence board — the board applies neither filter and counts higher. Layoffs take the same ZIP -> CBSA and review treatment, and a WARN notice counts if it affects >= 10 people or does not state a headcount (a NULL is not 'fewer than 10').

What this page can’t do
Everything above is a snapshot — one market, as it stands today, and it’s yours to read. What a snapshot can’t tell you is when it moves: which loan slipped a DSCR band this month, which bank’s early-warning rank crossed into the top quartile, which submarket started turning while the headline number still looked fine. Distress doesn’t announce itself on the day you happen to check.
