About

Our Story

Since 2008, The Henley Group (THG) has been fiercely dedicated to achieving custom loan workout advisory solutions for commercial real estate owners and borrowers, ensuring highly successful debt restructuring, negotiation, and resolution.

Founded by David and Tammy Goldfisher, THG responds to the need for senior-level consulting services to enable borrowers to effectively navigate the complexities of CMBS and non-CMBS lender servicing.

Our success has been built on an unparalleled commitment to excellence backed by proven expertise in every aspect of the loan debt ecosystem—from CMBS and balance sheet loan origination, bond securitization and rating agency experience to more than a decade of CMBS and balance sheet restructuring and resolution. We are the ultimate insiders.
