145-unit multifamily property in Seattle, WA

SEATTLE (July 16, 2024) — Managing Director Bob Spiro of Northmarq’s Seattle Debt + Equity team successfully refinanced an existing Fannie Mae loan for Boxcar Apartments in Seattle, Washington. The 145-unit multifamily property was built in 2014 and takes part in Seattle’s Multifamily Tax Exemption (MFTE) Program, granting the borrower a property tax break in exchange for setting aside 20% of the units as affordable.

Northmarq arranged the $17,839,500 permanent fixed rate loan on behalf of the borrower, through Northmarq’s in-house Fannie Mae DUS team. The transaction was structured with a 5-year interest only term at a 5.36% interest rate.

“Fannie Mae continues to provide best in class apartment financing products that meet our client’s needs,” said Spiro.
