Arlington, Wash. (May 16, 2019) – CBRE Capital Markets’ Debt & Structured Finance team has secured $34 million in construction financing for the development of Affinity at Arlington, a senior housing community consisting of 170 market-rate units in Arlington, WA.
The loan for this Class A, four-story apartment building is funded through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Section 221(d)(4) new construction mortgage insurance program, providing an interest-only construction period of 18 months with a 40-year, non-recourse and fully amortizing permanent loan.
Nick Santangelo of CBRE’s Portland office and Chad Ricks of CBRE’s Dallas office originated the loan through CBRE’s FHA lending platform on behalf of the sponsor, Inland Group. Inland Group is a privately owned and controlled real estate development and investment firm specializing in development and construction of high density residential and commercial projects, including multifamily projects. Inland has developed over 14,000 multifamily units since 2002.

The residents will have access to a suburban environment offering a variety of retailers, restaurants, business services, recreational activities and a primary transportation thoroughfare near the property.

“We appreciate CBRE’s effort to secure financing for our latest Affinity community located in Arlington, Washington,” said John Fisher of Inland Construction. “Affinity is a vibrant lifestyle concept specifically designed for active, not-necessarily-retired people who like to socialize, enjoy unique amenities and explore interests in and around our communities. That sense of community defines Affinity, where you’ll find folks eager to connect and share common interests. We’re excited to be part of the greater Arlington area, whose ideal location gives residents the opportunity to explore in all directions, from British Columbia to Seattle, and from Puget Sound to the North Cascades.”
