CoreStar Expanding in Southeast

CoreStar Financial Group, a Timonium, Md.-based mortgage banking company focused on the subprime market, has named Kurt Kabula to lead the expansion of its national wholesale division in the Southeast.CoreStar said its rapid growth in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and the Carolinas is expected to result in a 200% increase in its geographically dispersed employee base by the end of the year. Because Mr. Kabula's immediate focus will be on developing sales in Florida, he will be based in Ft. Lauderdale, but will spend an equal amount of time in Timonium, CoreStar said.
