Schlosser will work alongside Daniel Siegel, Peachtree’s president and principal for CRE, who joined in 2022 and has since originated nearly $1.5 billion in commercial real estate loans.

Peachtree originated $1.6 billion in hotel and commercial real estate loans in 2024, ranking seventh among investor-driven U.S. lenders, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. It is on track to surpass $2 billion in 2025.
Atlanta-based Peachtree is led by Greg Friedman, managing principal and CEO; Jatin Desai, managing principal and CFO and Mitul Patel, principal.
Friedman said that as Peachtree expands its private credit platform, it is strengthening the team and centralizing origination to better serve sponsors across the capital stack.
“Jared has consistently demonstrated strong leadership and this expanded role positions him to help us scale our platform and deepen our impact across commercial real estate," he said.
“It’s been rewarding to help build our lending platform during a pivotal time for the industry,” Schlosser said. “I’m honored to take on this role and look forward to working with our team as we expand our reach, deliver capital solutions and build on our momentum across asset classes.”
Peachtree recently topped out its 10-story, 117-room Residence Inn by Marriott in downtown San Antonio. In May, it opened its first office outside Atlanta, in Austin, to support its growth strategy focused on Texas’ economy and commercial real estate market.
