What they lend or invest in
The firm's financing pages list Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA/HUD, CMBS, bridge and mezzanine loans, tax-exempt bonds, structured products, and healthcare and seniors housing financing. Separate pages cover multifamily and Freddie Mac lending, and the firm publishes term sheets describing its programs.
Where they play
Coverage is in the United States. Program eligibility is described product by product on the official pages, so availability depends on the program rather than a single firm-wide box.
How the firm fits into the CRE finance map
Greystone sits in the agency and government-backed multifamily lane as a direct originator, and also in the alternative lending lane through bridge, mezzanine and structured products. Its healthcare and seniors housing programs make it a specialist counterparty for property types many balance-sheet lenders treat as exceptions.
Fit cues
Observable deal attributes that line up with what the official pages describe. These are not statements of current appetite and are not a guarantee of fit:
- Multifamily, healthcare or seniors housing asset in the United States.
- Agency or FHA/HUD execution is a plausible path for the request.
- Business plan needs bridge or transitional debt before a permanent agency loan.
- Structure may involve mezzanine, tax-exempt bonds or other structured products.
- Borrower values working with a direct originator across the program sequence.
