Walker & Dunlop opens Charlotte office

Commercial real estate finance firm Walker & Dunlop said this week that it has opened a Charlotte office.

The new location will originate loans and house credit operations for the company's commercial mortgage backed securities business.

"There is a huge volume of commercial real estate loans set to mature between 2015 and 2017 that present a great opportunity for me and our company," Charlotte-based vice president Brett McGuire said in a statement.
