Short Hills-based Investors Bank Commercial Real Estate Lending Group announced it has recently given out 15 loans worth $308.3 million for a range of buildings.
Four loans, worth approximately $67.8 million, were provided in New Jersey.

Our senior lenders expect to continue broadening the lending platform this year by targeting commercial assets that go along with the Bank’s strong financing in the multifamily housing sector,” said Joseph Orefice, Investors Bank head of CRE.
