Jeff Erxleben, executive vice president - managing director, recently sat down with Kelsi Borland from Globest.com to discuss a growing trend in commercial real estate financing: the gap in the capital stack.

According to Erxleben, the good news is that a variety of lenders are stepping in to fill this gap, and more creative financing options are getting deals done. Watch the video from the Mortgage Bankers Association’s 2017 CREF conference:
