LYNDEN, Wash. — Northmarq’s Seattle Investment Sales team of Tyler Smith, Joe Kinkopf, Steve Fischer, Brendan Greenheck and Taylor Wyman brokered the $18.9 million sale of Parkview Apartments, an 86-unit multifamily community located at 801 Aaron Drive in Lynden, Washington.

"It was truly a pleasure working with the seller throughout this process,” said Smith. “They built and maintained a high-class asset in the wonderful community of Lynden, and we are proud to have represented them in achieving a successful outcome. The Parkview Apartments are a testament to their commitment to quality and community. We look forward to the buyer’s continued success and legacy of community that this property represents.”

Northmarq’s Robert Spiro and Ben Biggers structured $13.279 million in acquisition financing on behalf of the buyer through Northmarq’s in-house Fannie Mae delegated underwriting team. The transaction was structured on a seven-year term with one year of interest only payments.

By aligning the debt execution with the sales process, both teams were able to deliver a seamless, end-to-end solution for the buyer that is emblematic of Northmarq’s integrated platform.

“Fannie Mae was able to execute on a low all-in rate and competitive buydown structure, allowing the borrower to acquire the asset with positive leverage,” said Spiro.

With a mix of market-rate and 55+ housing, Parkview West consists of 45 units built in 1995 and 41 newly constructed units delivered in 2024. The low-rise community features a mix of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom floorplans, averaging 696 square feet.
