At Berkadia, they will focus primarily on multifamily and commercial debt originations, specifically with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, life companies and CMBS lenders. Sinberg, with Wallace’s support, will also provide overarching leadership for Berkadia’s presence in southern Florida.

“Mitch and Mike are highly valuable additions to our already robust team in Florida,” said Moczul. “They are proven high-volume producers with a keen understanding of the market and a strong track record of working with GSEs, life companies and CMBS lenders. Their strong relationships with multiple capital sources will allow us to offer our clients even more flexibility and financing options.”

There, they were responsible for national multifamily and commercial debt originations through a variety of lenders, including Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, life companies, CMBS and bridge lending groups. Prior to that, they both spent time at Grandbridge Real Estate Capital.
