George Elkins Mortgage Banking ('GEMB'), established by George Elkins in 1922, is Southern California's oldest mortgage banking company and has been originating and servicing commercial real estate loans in the Southern California market for over 80 years. Focused exclusively on arranging financing for commercial real estate properties, today George Elkins Mortgage Banking originates in excess of $725 million of loans annually and provides loan servicing functions for our correspondent lenders for a loan portfolio valued at nearly $1 billion.
Our philosophy is to first work with our clients to understand their financing objectives and priorities, then structure a financing scenario that best suits their needs, and finally to place the financing with the most competitive source available. The principals of GEMB, who are all active loan officers with an average of nearly 20 years experience each in commercial real estate finance, draw on their substantial expertise and numerous long standing relationships to successfully combine the financing needs of our clients with the resources of the institutions we represent.
GEMB's favored lending sources include life insurance companies, Wall Street conduits, national, regional and local banks, and bridge lenders. Through these sources, George Elkins Mortgage Banking is able to arrange permanent, short-term, and construction loans, fixed and variable interest rates, of varying loan terms, amortization schedules, and leverage levels, on all types of commercial real estate, including office, industrial, warehouse / distribution, retail, multifamily, mobile home parks, self-storage, and hotel properties. In addition to traditional real estate loans typically provided by these lending sources, GEMB also arranges equity, mezzanine debt, and "hard money" loans with various sources.
Based in Los Angeles and with additional offices in Newport Beach, San Diego, Santa Barbara, and the South Bay area of Los Angeles,
the majority of GEMB's business and clients are located within the Southern California market. However, with our strong relationships with national lenders, GEMB consistently arranges the most competitive financing for our clients on commercial real estate properties located throughout the United States.
The real estate professionals of George Elkins Mortgage Banking look forward to building on our more than 80 year tradition of providing the highest level of client service and the most competitive financing terms for all of clients' commercial real estate financing needs.
