Analysis

Starwood Property Trust Inc (STWD) currently trades at $15.88, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $14.79, implying the stock looks roughly 7.4% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 43/100 (below-average quality), in the Real Estate sector. Bull case: the Dividend Discount group reads highest at a median of $27.28 per share, and 6 of the 12 models we run sit above the $15.88 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $12.28, and 6 of the 12 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Revenue grew 21.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 5.3%. Net debt stands at $21.6B. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 16.3. Fundamentals as of Aug 30, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $9.51 (bear case) to $15.85 (bull case); at $15.88, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 18% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at 3% fair-value upside, at −7%, STWD screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
