Port Washington, NY BEB Credit, a private real estate lender, has surpassed $500 million in loan originations across more than 100 transactions.
“BEB Credit’s origination and loan volume milestones represent a critical juncture for the firm as we enter a new chapter,” said Lee Brodsky, co-founder & CEO of BEB Credit. “As we continue our upward trajectory and deepen our presence in high-growth markets nationwide, our focus remains on delivering fast, creative financing that gives our borrowers a substantial edge in executing their business plans.”
This announcement follows a period of sustained growth for the nationwide lender since its founding in 2020, as it continues to scale its footprint across key asset classes and markets nationwide. In 2026 alone, the firm has closed nearly 30 transactions totaling more than $153 million, well ahead of its total origination volume for 2025.
“Crossing the $500 million mark is less about volume than what it shows: a disciplined credit process that has held up through a full rate cycle,” said Keyvan Ghaytanchi, co-founder & chief investment officer of BEB Credit. “With traditional lenders staying selective and a wave of maturities coming due, we see 2027 as one of the most compelling windows for private credit in a decade. Our job is to deploy capital where we have conviction in the asset, the sponsor and the basis, while protecting our investors’ principal.”
The firm also recently welcomed James Fiesel as vice president of originations to address increased lending activity nationwide and throughout key growth markets. Fiesel brings more than a decade of commercial real estate lending experience, most recently serving as vice president of originations at Arbor Realty Trust. In his new role, he will work alongside Sean Silverbrook, principal and head of originations, to source and structure bridge and value-add loans across retail, hospitality, multifamily, office, industrial, and mixed-use properties, partnering directly with borrowers and brokers to deliver fast, flexible financing.
