Holding company opens new headquarters in Tampa

Roemanu, a holding company focused on originating and investing in business purpose mortgage loans across the United States and the United Kingdom, and its subsidiary Toorak Capital Partners, opened its new joint headquarters at Water Street Tampa’s Thousand & One office tower.

Merchants Mortgage & Trust Corporation, also a subsidiary of Roemanu, will continue to operate out of its current headquarters in Greenwood Village, Colorado.

“Downtown Tampa is the ideal location for our headquarters due to its business-friendly environment, educated work force and proximity to some of our biggest clients and markets. We were particularly drawn to Thousand & One’s superior amenities and design, along with its central location in the vibrant Water Street neighborhood,” said John Beacham, chief executive officer of Toorak and Roemanu. “We look forward to hiring a number of employees from the surrounding area, including local university graduates, to fill multiple new positions during the coming months.”

The new headquarters will be home to Beacham and key personnel in Toorak’s asset management, loan acquisition, legal and financial planning departments. The company will continue to maintain a presence at its prior headquarters in Summit, New Jersey.
