"The incredible appetite for CMBS lending is a result of the inherent flexibility this platform provides, and backed by our multifamily expertise, Greystone is able to exceed borrowers' expectations regardless of the market challenges," said Robert Russell, head of production for Greystone's CMBS lending group.
