 Greystone’s extensive relationship with Fannie Mae and real estate financing expertise has enabled the firm to provide borrowers with fast-closing, long-term loans at the most attractive rates available. Notable deals completed throughout Q2 and Q3 include:

$16.9 million Fannie Mae DUS® Loan for Lofton Place Apartments, a 280-unit apartment community in Tampa, Florida. Dan Rosenberg, of Cohen Financial, sourced the loan as a correspondent of Greystone.
