Hunt Mortgage Group adds managing director for conventional, small balance originations

Hunt Mortgage Group has appointed Patrick McFarland as managing director, with responsibility for originating debt for the company conventional and small balance Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loan programs.

McFarland will also be responsible for originating debt for Hunt's proprietary commercial, bridge, and mezzanine loan programs for clients in the Southwestern region. Based in the firm's Dallas office, he will report to Vic Clark, senior managing director at Hunt Mortgage Group.

"Patrick is a seasoned real estate investment banker with more than 20 years' experience originating, underwriting, and closing commercial real estate debt and equity throughout the US," Clark said. "He is known for his ability to come up with creative solutions in cases of serious asset or sponsorship challenges, significant environmental contamination, and has had success pioneering concepts with no proven market. He is the perfect addition to our team and we are confident the combination of his expertise with the company's extensive product array will help us achieve our regional growth goals."

McFarland most recently served as a senior vice president with Churchill Capital. In that role, he represented clients in acquisitions and advised in asset reposition strategies for apartment properties in North Texas and Southern California. Earlier in his career, McFarland was a commercial real estate consultant and appraiser at The Jay Massey Company and held positions at Sun America Planning Centers and Fidelity Investments.
