David Orbach a r e o f t e n surprised to learn that one of north- e r n N e w J e r s e y ’ s most active multi-fam- ily lending specialists is a community bank head- quartered in Livingston. “Regal Bank is centrally- located with branch offices in Livingston, Roseland, Flo- rham Park, Millburn and West Orange. The territory we service, however, is far greater throughout the state,” said Thomas Lupo, president and chief executive officer for Regal Bank. In just six short years, Re- gal Bank has established a prominent reputation in the multi-family lending market. This is due in no small part to a number of features that are winning favor with borrowers. With non-recourse loans up to $4.5 million, Regal Bank ex- cels in the small loans space where the national big banks are not so aggressive.
