Submit Your Nominations for Connect CRE’s 2024 Top Mortgage Brokers & Lenders
2023 brought an increasingly challenging year for commercial real estate professionals on the lending side, as interest rates continued to rise. We at Connect Commercial Real Estate want to spotlight those who overcame these challenges and got the deals done with our fourth annual Top Mortgage Brokers & Lenders Awards.
As with our other awards programs, we’re asking for your input to help us recognize the past year’s lending stars. We’ll consider capital markets professionals from real estate services firms, real estate finance advisory firms, financial institutions, insurance firms and credit unions, among other organizations. Acquisition and construction loans, refinancings and recapitalizations are among the types of transactions that are eligible. Our selections will be based on total dollar volume for each broker or team during 2023.
And as with our other awards programs, we intend to recognize 10 winners from each of the regions we cover. That means brokers and lenders in California; Texas; New York/Tri-State; Chicago/Midwest; Boston/New England; Washington, DC; Atlanta/Southeast; Florida/Gulf Coast; Phoenix/Southwest; and Seattle/Northwest, as well as those who are active nationally. We’ll make our final selections based on 2023 dollar volume.
If you know a lending professional or team who excelled in 2023, we’d like to hear from you. Click here to submit a nomination for the 2024 Top Mortgage Brokers & Lenders Awards. Deadline for submissions is June 3.
