Client Testimonials
“Lisa is a gift. Caring and hard-working. An advocate looking out for your best interests. The icing on the cake is that she is a wonderful person that cares about her clients as if they were her family. My interactions with her from the moment we met have been extremely positive.”
-Nick Racanelli, Owner of Racanelli Construction
“I have worked directly with Lisa Fischman both during our original construction and again 8 years later for a re-fi, and I cannot say enough about what a pleasure it was to have her leading the way. She not only made herself available 24/7 but consistently went above and beyond to answer any questions that arose or to resolve any problems we encountered. Without question, Lisa would be the first person I would call for any future projects.”
-Mike Helbringer, President/CEO of Bristol Home & Bristol Village
“It’s my pleasure to share with you what an outstanding job Lisa has done time and time again on all of our refinances for our Michigan portfolio. Lisa has done an amazing job in quarterbacking all of the steps during our refinances. She always goes over and beyond for her clients and as a result, we use Greystone exclusively as Lisa and her team have proven over and over that they are the “go to lenders” for our Michigan properties.
Thank you, Lisa for all of your years of taking such great care of our financing needs!”
-Joel Altman, CEO of The Altman Companies
“Lisa is the professional you want in your corner. She's experienced, respected, very creative and a pleasure to work with. Even when our bridge to HUD transaction was significantly hindered and delayed by others and basically had to be re-underwritten a couple of years later, as a smaller operator, it was quite surprising and refreshing that she was only a phone call or email away to assist where she could and never gave up on us. We closed our permanent HUD loan at 3.22% in 2019. We have recommended Lisa and Greystone to others and will continue to do so.”
-Curtis Rodowicz, Co-Owner of Colonial Health & Rehab
“In our very tough business Lisa is above all else REFRESHING! She always has time for you. She responds promptly even long after your deal has closed. She is very knowledgeable about all aspects of the business and acknowledges when she doesn't know the answer and then finds the answer for you. She has excellent judgement. She is frank about her opinions and separates opinion from fact. She is concerned about the quality of the deal for all concerned. Finally, there is no one who is more pleasant and is always in good humor no matter how stressful the situation. Lisa is a class act in every way that matters!”
-Mike Dowdle and Dale Inman, Owners of Wolf River Development Company
“Lisa Fischman is a joy with whom to do business! Her professionalism and dedication to doing whatever it takes to close your deal successfully is unmatched. I have the highest respect for her and the wonderful job she always does.”
-Denise Littlefield, Chief Manager of Germantown Plantation Senior Living
