Brian Sykes Tapped to Lead Lument’s Expansion into Boston

Lument has appointed managing director Brian Sykes as head of the company’s new Boston office. He will lead a Boston team that originates agency loans and proprietary capital for institutional and private multifamily owners.

Sykes will work extensively with investors and developers across the country, building on the network he developed over the course of his 30-year career, one in which he originated and closed more than $5 billion in multifamily mortgages. He will report to Vic Clark, senior managing director and head of conventional multifamily production.

Sykes will be joined in the Boston office by Jon Wood, also a Lument managing director. Sykes and Wood worked together for almost 10 years at Capital One and at Deutsche Bank Berkshire Mortgage. Over the last five years, Wood participated in building a customized production platform that closed more than $3 billion of agency loans for multifamily and affordable housing clients.
