Orange County, CA Debt Roles in CRE

Is anybody here familiar with Orange County, CA?, I am interested in continuing to work on the direct lending/debt side and I compiled a list of debt players in OC. I excluded small and regional banks/credit unions like pacific premier bank, pacific western bank, provident bank, opus bank etc. I figured there are over a 100 of those. I focused on large and mid size banks. My list so far is pretty heavy on the agency side with no life cos. I also notice that some of these are small satellite offices with just 3 or 4 people. Am I missing any other large companies? Note that I am pretty particular about working in OC and not LA or SD.

JP Morgan Chase (balance sheet multifamily lending) Red/Orix/Hunt Real Estate Capital Group (Agency) Freddie Mac (Agency) Sabal Capital Partners (Agency,Bridge,CMBS) Basis Investment Group (Agency, Bridge, CMBS) Capital One Multifamily (Agency) Wells Fargo (Agency, balance sheet CRE) Walker & Dunlop (Agency) Key Bank (balance sheet CRE) CIBC (balance sheet CRE) CBRE (Agency) Berkeley Point Capital/Newmark (Agency) Berkadia (Agency) Greystone (Agency) Ready Capital (Agency,Bridge,CMBS) Bank of America (balance sheet CRE)

Appreciate any insights! Thank you.
