SEATTLE (May 13, 2013) Bob Spiro, senior vice president and managing director of NorthMarq’s Seattle regional office, arranged acquisition financing of $1.6 million for 721 228th Avenue NE, a 5,890 sq. ft. retail property in Sammamish, Washington. Three tenants occupy the site - Key Bank, Papa Johns and a Dry Cleaners. Financing was based on a 20-year term and a 20-year amortization schedule and was arranged for the borrower, Aliza LLC, by NorthMarq through its relationship with a correspondent life company lender. “The borrower liked that the deal was fixed for 20 years and the low leverage was fine as it accommodated his tax-free exchange,” Spiro stated. “The lender will finance Canadian owners on a low-leverage basis at 50 percent of purchase price.”
