Has anyone worked there or have worked with them in the past. Interested to get any insights about the firm especially after shit hitting the fan with Freddie and Fannie.
They’ve always seemed a little off to me because of the high volume and a lot of times questionable sponsors.

Not very clever sharks. Brokers from the same firm will reach out to do deals with landlords. They don't talk to each other across various teams which is even dumber. Not surprised they tripped up with Freddie & Fannie.
