Berkadia relocates to 10 Milk Street in Boston’s Financial District

Boston, MA Berkadia has relocated its Boston office to accommodate the company’s growth. Situated in the city’s Financial District at 10 Milk St., Suite 720, the team’s expanded location sets the stage for increased production activity on both a regional and local level.

The move co-located a diverse group of professionals previously housed in various offices throughout the greater Boston area. Managing director Ryan Nelson, director Anthony Golebiewski and associate director Todd Rixon will focus on conventional originations for all commercial property sectors and multifamily through Berkadia’s Fannie and Freddie platforms, life companies and banking relationships. Senior director Gemma Geldmacher will focus on multifamily and affordable housing through the company’s Fannie, Freddie and HUD platforms.

The team’s expansion comes in anticipation of an active year ahead. The city lending environment is expected to flourish due to a strong economy, supported by solid employment and a high-end job market. Berkadia’s expansion comes on the heels of the relocation of its Houston office, which also recently relocated to support increased production volume.

“This move demonstrates Berkadia’s long-term commitment to Boston and the New England region, one of the most dynamic areas of the country,” said Nelson. “We’re thrilled to be part of Berkadia at such an exciting time and look forward to serving our customers better from this strategic location.”

Consistently ranked as a top lender for both Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, and recently named HUD’s top originating lender for 2016 for the third year in a row, Berkadia remains committed to expanding its reach in order to provide clients and business partners with its integrated services platform.
