Daniel Geuther
Originated more than $4 billion in debt and equity placements in his career
Closed loans with 22 different capital sources in 2022
Daniel Geuther is a Managing Director on Berkadia’s Cleveland-based mortgage banking team. In this role, he’s responsible for the origination and structuring of complex real estate financing and equity placements across a diverse group of internal and external capital sources. Over the course of his career, he has originated over $4 billion in debt and equity placements.
Some of Geuther’s recent transactions include a $58-million bridge loan related to construction financing for a 240-unit multifamily property in Cleveland, OH; a $33-million acquisition and value-add financing for a 126-unit garden style property in Colorado Springs, CO; a $30-million agency refinance for a three-property North Carolina affordable portfolio; and a $23.5-million capitalization of a Southwest self-storage portfolio.
In 2022, Geuther closed loans with 22 different capital sources, a high watermark among all mortgage bankers at Berkadia. The diversified business perspective he brings to Berkadia clients is based on his thoughtful approach and his ability to view their needs from an equity investors’ perspective.
Geuther started his career as an institutional advisor to pension funds on real estate investments. The foundation of viewing each transaction from the investor’s perspective ensures he focuses on the clients’ needs and objectives when advising on and structuring optimal financing structures. He remains focused on client service and execution across varying property and financing types with a maturity far beyond his years and experience.
These are just a few reasons we chose Daniel Geuther as one of Connect CRE National’s 2023 Next Generation Award winners. Connect Media’s seventh annual Next Generation Awards recognize young leaders who will have a strong influence on the commercial real estate industry.
