Calkin, who formerly was vice president and manager at US Bank, fills a post that previously was held by John Strockis, who left Voit recently to become president of Tustin, CA-based Mar West Real Estate. In his former role at US Bank, Calkin focused on property sales in California, Nevada, and Colorado, as well as managing receivership and trustee activity on court-appointed positions.

In the announcement regarding the new hires, Voit founder and chairman Bob Voit commented: "As Voit continues to provide asset services to our corporate and institutional clients, Cary’s banking and real estate background will provide financial firms with a contact who understands their needs from a banker’s perspective.” That perspective, the Voit founder said, "will enable Voit to provide an even more collaborative process between our firm and the banks and other financial institutions we serve.”

In his new role, Calkin will be responsible for Voit’s Asset Services team, specifically targeting lenders such as banks, insurance companies, special servicers and public-sector entities. Calkin noted, “The market conditions have altered the dynamics surrounding the real estate industry in a permanent way. Bank regulation, lending, real estate ownership, leasing and sales have all been heavily impacted."

Calkin pointed out that these changes have required banks and other financial institutions to rely to a greater degree on the services of companies like Voit, which made a commitment to asset services early in the downturn. Calkin added that his 30 years in banking "allows me to assist the various Voit professionals to bridge the ‘communication gap’ between the two business lines of banking and commercial real estate.”

Earlier in his career, Calkin founded Sacramento Pacific Partners, a lending and development company that specialized in providing equity for development and construction projects throughout Northern California. He has also served as SVP and manager for Comerica Bank, where he built the Northern California region and worked with more than 50 various development firms. He also served in executive roles with San Francisco Federal, Glendale Federal Savings, Gibralter Savings and Bank of America.

Calkin received his bachelor of arts in Urban Economics and geography, with a focus on city planning, from the University of California at Berkeley.

Montandon, whose position is new with Voit, "will oversee our full range of commercial real estate services on behalf of area investors, banks, financial institutions, and special servicers, for which Voit serves as surrogate owners of their distressed assets,” according to company chairman Voit.
