BWE, a national commercial and multifamily mortgage banking company, announced today that two new vice presidents have joined its Denver, CO, office. Peter Keepper, senior vice president, and Jack Korosec, assistant vice president, bring decades of combined real estate finance experience to BWE.
For more than 30 years, Keepper has specialized in commercial and multifamily debt and equity placement. Over his career, he has closed over $2 billion in transactions with diverse investors including banks, insurance companies, debt funds, agency, and private lenders. He possesses deep experience with a variety of asset types, including retail, office, industrial, multifamily, and self-storage. Prior to joining BWE, he spent 22 years as a partner at Essex Financial Group. Keepper holds a B.S.B.A degree in real estate construction and finance from the University of Denver.
“BWE’s national platform has been carefully cultivated by top-shelf industry veterans and they’re highly regarded across the country by borrowers and lenders. They’re a natural fit for us based on their culture, and they complement and enhance the debt and equity relationships we’ve established over 20 years,” said Keepper. “We’re excited to provide our clients with a larger national network of debt and equity relationships that make a difference.”
Jack Korosec brings a diverse array of real estate finance experience to BWE. He has been involved in over $250 million in closed capital transactions across all commercial product types. In addition to his work in the field of commercial real estate capital markets, he also has significant experience leasing office and land in the Denver MSA. Prior to joining BWE, Korosec was a real estate analyst at Essex Financial Group. He graduated from the University of Colorado at Boulder with a double emphasis in finance and real estate.
These hires mark BWE’s continued growth across the country, following four office openings and expansions across the South. Despite a difficult economic environment and the COVID-19 pandemic, BWE has grown its base of producers by 35 percent over the past five years, and the firm plans to continue to attract talent throughout 2024.
