Construction & Development Loans Q4 2025:
U.S. bank construction and development loan balances fell to $456.3 billion in Q4 2025, down 5.7% year-over-year and marking the sixth consecutive quarter of contraction, according to CRED iQ analysis. The decline of $45 billion from the post-pandemic peak of $501.5 billion in Q4 2023 reflects elevated borrowing costs, tightened underwriting standards, and softening commercial real estate fundamentals. The past-due and nonaccrual rate on C&D loans stood at 1.34% in Q4 2025, elevated relative to recent lows but well below post-financial crisis stress levels.
