“With Charles joining our team, Berkadia now has unsurpassed market leadership in Florida,” Warren Higgins, executive vice president and head of mortgage banking. “We'll no doubt benefit from his robust relationships with long time clients and our agency lending partners, as well as his depth of experience in all areas of the capital markets.”

Based in Miami, Foschini will work alongside Berkadia senior managing director Mitch Sinberg to grow the firm's production and expand its footprint in Florida. Berkadia has Florida offices in Miami, Boca Raton, Orlando, Tampa and Jacksonville.

Together, Foschini and Sinberg have a strong record of success in structuring Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans. The Foschini team has a skill set in structuring large commercial and transitional loans with a variety of life companies, debt funds, merchant banks, and other sources that will expand Berkadia's capabilities. The duo plans to grow the team's production further, leveraging synergies with Berkadia's entire Florida capital markets team.

“This was a unique opportunity to be associated with a privately held company with a singular focus on the capital markets, and to bring my many client relationships to their impressive lending platform,” Foschini tells GlobeSt.com. “And in a leadership role alongside Mitch Sinberg, I'll have an opportunity to create a legacy, building an elite team of professionals and expanding Berkadia's reach in Florida and beyond.”

Foschini is a three-time alumnus of the University of Miami, where he earned an undergraduate degree, a Juris Doctor degree from the School of Law and a Master of Business Administration degree from the School of Business. He is active in his community and with the University of Miami, where he is involved in several board and membership positions including serving as an adjunct professor in the School of Law.

“Charles is truly a leader in our market and within the commercial real estate industry,” says Sinberg. “Our combined skill sets will allow for our clients and our correspondent lenders to benefit from a full range of services and enhanced capabilities in both the multifamily and commercial arenas.”
