Berkadia Adds Trio of Directors to Mortgage Banking Team
New York-based Berkadia added three new members to its mortgage banking team: Managing Directors Carolyn Whatley and Laura Beaton, as well as Senior Director George Spadier. The moves are part of Berkadia’s strategy to deepen its bench, while broadening and diversifying its offerings, including recent approvals for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac small balance loan programs.
Berkadia’s Hilary Provinse says, “Bringing Carolyn, Laura and George onboard enhances our regional and product expertise, and is another step in our ongoing effort to cultivate best-in-class talent in every major market across the company.”
Whatley (pictured) brings more than 30 years of multifamily commercial real estate experience to Berkadia’s HUD team, including most recently serving at Capital One Multifamily Finance. She will help expand Berkadia’s work with HUD, particularly in the Southeast.
Beaton joins Berkadia’s Boston office from Walker & Dunlop. Spadier will be based out of Berkadia’s Los Angeles office, and most-recently served at Sunrise Mortgage & Investment Co.
