A10 Capital, a nationwide lending business specializing in small to middle market mini-perm commercial mortgage loans, announced that it has hired Bruce Dashevsky to head up business development efforts in the tri-state market (Connecticut, New Jersey and New York).

According to the news release, Dashevsky previously originated commercial mortgages for Metlife Capital and GE Capital.

“We are pleased to have Bruce join our firm to address the demand for commercial mortgages that we are seeing in this market,” said Jerry Dunn, CEO of A10 Capital. “Bruce is an industry veteran who brings a wealth of commercial real estate lending experience. Our expansion into the tri-state area continues to affirm A10 Capital as the lender of choice for commercial real estate investors in the small to middle markets.”

Princeton, NJ-based A10 Capital specializes in small- to middle-market commercial mortgage loans on a nationwide basis. Its core product, a mini-perm loan, features an intermediate term of three to five years that is often used to finance properties not yet in a position to obtain longer-term, permanent financing.
