DBRS, Inc. (DBRS Morningstar) assigned a rating of A (high) (sf) with a Stable trend to the 3.90% Mortgage Loan Maturing September 1, 2022 (the Mortgage Loan), made to John Hancock Bay Indies MHC.

The Mortgage Loan is secured by Bay Indies, a 1,309-unit Class A manufactured housing community (MHC) located in Venice, Florida.
