“Greystone is fully committed to the success of Fannie Mae’s mission-driven and innovative financing platforms, and we are thrilled to be their largest producer for small loans, representing hundreds of transactions,” said Rick Wolf, head of Greystone’s small loans platform. “We look forward to continued collaboration with Fannie Mae as the workforce housing sector, a bulk of the small loan market, gains even more spotlight for its critical role as much-needed rental housing for millions of Americans.”

Fannie Mae’s small loans program includes financing from 5 to 30 years and up to $3 million nationwide or $5 million in certain eligible markets, with both fixed and variable rate options available.
