New Job Advice - CRE Finance - Commercial Mortgage Broker
Hi all -

Looking to get a discussion going and a little advice. I am starting a new job shortly in CRE finance as a commercial loan broker. 

The firm I am starting with does a lot of multifamily financing (Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, HUD), along with insurance company loans, commercial banks, &amp; CMBS originations. 

I have been in banking for 7ish years and most recently as a commercial banker working on C&amp;I loans but also some smaller CRE deals. 

The market I will support is much larger now and I will have a pretty big learning curve with the new products. I do have a number on contacts and current clients that I can still work with, but I will need to start networking big time and looking for larger CRE deals. 

Any thoughts on getting started and finding deals? Have any of you worked with a mortgage broker in the past? What made them good or bad? How can I stand out &amp; win business?

I love the industry and I’m very excited to get to work in it, but have no doubts it will take some time to get established.

Ps - PM if you have a deal to finance, lol ;)

Thanks!
