| Holliday Fenoglio Fowler?s Greg LaBine says that special servicers have modified more loans than they've liquidated and when they do sell them, the average loss has been 54% per loan from January '09 through March ?11.

In '10, 18% of all property sales were distressed properties compared to almost none in ?07 prior to the financial crisis. Of the $1.6T in bank loans, since '09, $300B was in distress with $120B worked out and $178B left troubled.
