SAN DIEGO—CRE lenders for the San Diego market have a general concern over the still-aggressive valuation afforded to existing buildings, with cap rates and price per pound still setting records in many segments, Barry Slatt Mortgage's commercial mortgage banker Cody Charfauros tells GlobeSt.com.

The firm recently hired Thomas Cohen to its San Diego office as SVP. Cohen brings more than 20 years of experience in the mortgage-banking industry, most recently as founding partner of JC CAP LLC. We spoke with Cohen about his new role with the firm and with both Cohen and Charfauros about how lenders are viewing the San Diego market.
