Bellwether Enterprise Selects New VP
Ilya Weinstein will oversee loan production for affordable housing properties throughout New York City and the northeastern U.S., bringing to this new role more than seven years of mortgage lending experience.
Shortly after the departure of a Denver executive, Bellwether Enterprise Real Estate Capital LLC, an Enterprise Community Investment Inc. subsidiary, has named Ilya Weinstein as its newest vice president in New York City. Weinstein will be part of the mortgage banking company’s Affordable Group branch. In his new role, he will focus on expanding loan production for affordable housing properties across the city and the northeastern region.
Weinstein has nearly seven years of mortgage lending experience, having previously worked as an associate at Wells Fargo Multifamily Capital, where he contributed to the origination of more than $10 billion in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans across the nation. Prior to that, he worked as an associate at Red Stone Tax-Exempt Funding. He also held various asset management and affordable housing lending positions at Centerline Capital Group.
Weinstein holds a B.A. in international relations and Russian studies from Colgate University. He is part of the Urban Land Institute Young Leaders Group and the Colgate University Real Estate Leadership Council.
“We are thrilled to welcome Ilya to Bellwether Enterprise’s New York City office, which serves as a hub for some of our company’s most impactful work,” Bellwether Enterprise President Ned Huffman said in a prepared statement. “Ilya’s established industry experience in the mortgage lending space and his passion for affordable housing aligns strongly with our mission.”
