New Joint Venture Leverages Greystone’s Full-Service Debt Capabilities and Brown Realty Advisors’ Extensive Private Capital, Market-Rate Client Base

Greystone announces that it has welcomed Brown Realty Advisors of Atlanta, GA to the Greystone network. The new joint venture, Greystone Brown Real Estate Advisors, focuses on providing a full range of multifamily advisory services to clients in the Southeast for both market-rate and affordable housing properties, capitalizing on Greystone’s comprehensive financial platform and Brown Realty Advisors’ multifamily sales expertise in that region.

Greystone Brown Real Estate Advisors combines the advantages of both organizations. Greystone’s national debt and advisory platform enhances Brown Realty Advisors’ already strong investment sales presence in the Southeast and allows them to offer multifamily owners and investors an extensive array of Agency and proprietary debt options.

“We are thrilled to team up with Greystone and leverage its national brand and reputation, not to mention their robust platform of debt options that our clients will find to be a seamless component of our newly expanded offerings,” said Bo Brown, President, Greystone Brown Real Estate Advisors. “We have long known that Greystone and Brown Realty Advisors were like-minded organizations with a commitment to excellent client service and look forward to amplifying our combined strengths in the multifamily sales market.”

“Brown’s team of multifamily sales professionals present the perfect complement to Greystone’s desire to offer sound sales advisory services for the private capital market,” said Jim McDevitt, President, Greystone Real Estate Advisors. “With our affordable and seniors housing teams already in place, the addition of a market-rate focus poises Greystone to be a leader in comprehensive multifamily advisory services going forward.”
