COMMERCIAL CAPITAL BANCORP, INC. ADDS DONALD SALKA TO ITS
BANK SUBSIDIARY’S INCOME PROPERTY LENDING DIVISION

Irvine, CA – June 18, 2003 – Commercial Capital Bancorp, Inc. (“CCBI” or the “Company”), (NASDAQ: “CCBI”), announced today that Don Salka, whom the Company believes has consistently been one of Southern California’s top income property loan agents, has joined Commercial Capital Bank (the “Bank”), the Company’s banking subsidiary, as a Director of Loan Production. Mr. Salka brings to the Bank over 25 years of income property lending experience, focusing predominantly on his multi-family banking relationships located throughout Los Angeles County.

Mr.  Salka joins the Company from Santa Monica, CA based First Federal Bank of California (NASDAQ: “FED”)‘s income property lending group where he originated over $500 million in loans. Before joining First Federal, Mr. Salka was with H. F. Ahmanson’s subsidiary bank, Home Savings of America, formerly the nation’s largest savings institution prior to its acquisition by Washington Mutual (NYSE: “WM”), where the Company believes he consistently was a top producer in the Southern California multi-family market. Prior to Home Savings, Mr. Salka was a top producing income property lender at American Savings and Loan, formerly the second largest savings institution in California. Mr. Salka is a licensed real estate broker and holds a bachelors degree in Business Administration with an emphasis in real estate from California State University of Northridge.

Stephen H. Gordon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated, “The California multi-family financing market has historically been dominated by lenders that have high quality, direct retail relationship-driven sales forces. We believe that Don’s years of experience, market intelligence and significant client relationships throughout Southern California will have an immediate impact on the Company’s origination volume, market share and overall growth.”
