A HISTORY OF U.S. CRE CREDIT · 1984 → NOW · IN MOTION
A quarter‑by‑quarter history of U.S. bank commercial‑real‑estate credit, 1984 to today,
re‑cut from the publicly available FDIC record. Scrub the timeline or press play and watch it move — the early‑90s
crisis, the GFC, COVID, and now. The picture grows sharper as you come forward: it’s dim and sparse in the deep
past because we genuinely recorded less then, and blooms into full color as bank disclosure thickened.
