SEATTLE, WA – Newmark®, the largest independent commercial mortgage banking firm in the U.S., has secured $29.5 million in financing for two office properties located in Bellevue, Washington.

Brian Bonipart, Vice President, along with Michael Taylor, Principal, and Skip Slavin, Vice President of Newmark’s Seattle office, worked exclusively with Spire Real Estate, L.P., a subsidiary of Vancouver-based Nicola Crosby Wealth Management, in arranging the long-term financing through two correspondent lenders.

Mercer Pointe – Bellevue, WA ($15 MM)

Newmark arranged $15 MM in financing for the purchase of Mercer Pointe, a single-tenant office building located in the Bellefield Office Park, five minutes from the Bellevue Central Business District. The 71,329 sf, class-A building is 100% net-leased to OfferUp.com, a rapidly growing Seattle-based online marketplace. Spire Real Estate worked closely with Newmark in arranging the 25-year, fully amortizing, full-recourse loan, which Newmark will service.

Swift Gateway – Bellevue, WA ($14.5 MM)

Located southeast of downtown Bellevue, Newmark secured $14.5 MM in financing for the off-market purchase of Swift Gateway, a 68,766 sf multi-tenant office building. The three-story, class-A building was recently renovated in 2016. The Newmark team was able to negotiate a highly competitive rate with a 5-year term, 30-year amortization, non-recourse loan with one of its correspondent lenders.
