NEW YORK, Aug. 06, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Greystone, a national real estate lending, investment, and advisory company, is expanding its lending footprint in Texas with the addition of managing directors Gill Dolan and Blake Willeford to its recently-established Houston office.

A full-service commercial real estate capital provider, Greystone offers investors access to a complete capital stack, including senior mortgage options such as Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Small Balance, Floating-Rate Bridge, and FHA/HUD, in addition to Mezzanine and JV Equity.

“We’re thrilled that our new lending team will help Houston’s real estate investors get what they need through Greystone’s full-service lending capabilities,” said Mr. Billy Posey, head of Greystone’s lending operations.

“The timing couldn’t be better,” adds Mr. Willeford. “The Houston Multifamily market fundamentals are as strong as we’ve seen in the last three years. Being a part of a company that recognizes opportunity and proactively seeks out ways to capitalize on it is incredibly exciting.”

Mr. Dolan joins Greystone with over 10 years of experience in commercial real estate finance, completing more than $1.5 billion of commercial real estate loan transactions.
