Since his entry into the commercial real estate industry in 2002, Mr. Pollack has been involved in the financing and acquisition of over a billion dollars ’worth of fee simple real estate and non-performing debt. He began his career working for a large New York based mortgage brokerage firm; over time, utilizing his uniquely creative mind, he developed a knack for sourcing and structuring highly profitable distressed and value add opportunities for his clients, including private lending, third party brokerage of off market deals, and the sale of NPL & REO.

At the onset of the financial crisis in 2008, he recognized an opportunity to take advantage of his invaluable experience in the mortgage business and began consulting on behalf of borrowers struggling with loan delinquency due to the crisis. Over the next three years, Mr. Pollack successfully resolved over $100 million in small balance CMBS and private debt. In 2012, he, began acquiring non-performing and scratch-and-dent commercial loans as well as value-add commercial real estate. Since then, Mendy has become the go-to address for distressed debt opportunities and has consistently delivered returns well above industry standard.

Drawing on his extensive knowledge of commercial real estate and networking abilities, as well as his creative, out-of-the-box style of thinking, Mr. Pollack drives and administers all acquisition and disposition activities and is intimately involved in all major asset management decisions and strategies.
