Real estate finance professional Dennis Cisterna has joined FirstKey Lending, a provider of loans designed specifically for investors in one- to four-family residential rental properties, as managing director.
Cisterna joins FirstKey Lending from national real estate capital advisory firm Johnson Capital, where he most recently served as senior vice president and co-head of the firm's opportunistic finance division, which provides investment banking services and structured finance solutions for residential buy-to-rent investors.
In his new role, Cisterna will serve as a senior member of the production team and will head up the opening of FirstKey Lending's West Coast office in Los Angeles.
FirstKey Lending also announced that it has signed a correspondent agreement with Johnson Capital, one of the most active capital market intermediaries in the U.S. buy-to-rent sector, to allow their national production team of nearly 100 commercial mortgage professionals to sell FirstKey Lending products to their clients.
