Madison Realty Capital Provides $27 Million Financing Package on Seattle Metro Area Properties

NEW YORK, Jan. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Madison Realty Capital (MRC) originated a $27 million first mortgage loan collateralized by a multifamily project under construction at the NE corner of Jefferson Ave and 23rd S Street in Tacoma, Wash. and a development site at 2300 8th Avenue in Seattle. In addition, the loan was collateralized by investment properties in Bellevue, Washington.

The financing allows the borrower to complete construction on a planned eight-story, 158,952-square-foot mixed-use rental building with 144 apartment units and 5,917 square feet of ground-floor retail in the emerging Tacoma market. The property is already 65% completed and will be a key component of The Tacoma Town Center, a multi-phase mixed-use urban development that will include multifamily, retail and office space. 

In addition, the borrower used the funding to refinance an existing land loan on a 9,878-square-foot development site located in the Denny Triangle/Belltown neighborhood of downtown Seattle. The site is currently improved by a vacant restaurant building and entitled for a future luxury condominium tower.

"This was an attractive financing opportunity given the location of the sites and a seasoned sponsor with extensive real estate investment and development experience," said Josh Zegen, Co-Founder and Managing Principal of MRC. "MRC was able to provide the borrower with a one-stop shop execution addressing all of their needs, including financing the Tacoma asset mid-construction to prevent significant delays."

Zegen adds, "MRC will look for other opportunities in the greater Seattle metro area as part of our long-term expansion strategy to deliver customized financing solutions to markets nationwide."

The Tacoma mixed-use property is in the Hilltop neighborhood, adjacent to the University of Washington Tacoma. When finalized, the property's 144 apartment units will be located on floors three through eight with a unit mix of 36 studios, 83 one-bedrooms, and 25 two-bedrooms. A partially subterranean, 116-space parking garage will cover the three bottom floors with entrance/exit along 23rd St and a 1,000-square-foot amenity room will be located on the third floor.
