CRE Permanent in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs commercial mortgage financing for the long hold.

Long-term, permanent financing for stabilized commercial real estate. We place it in house through agency multifamily channels (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac), insurance funds, and other wholesale sources. Fort Carson's payroll anchors tenancy across El Paso County, Colorado, and the Space Command Joint Operations Center stays in Colorado Springs through the headquarters relocation. Business-purpose only, and every structure is set in underwriting.

How it works

For a stabilized asset ready for permanent debt, we shop your file across agency multifamily programs, insurance companies, and wholesale lenders, then place the structure that fits your hold. When a deal needs to stabilize first, we can bridge it and refinance into permanent debt later.

Local FAQ

CRE Permanent in Colorado Springs, answered.

Why does federal payroll matter for underwriting a stabilized Colorado Springs commercial asset?
Because a large share of the tenant base is paid by the federal government, not a single local employer that can leave. Fort Carson's own fact sheet puts its total economic impact at $2.55 billion a year, including $1.6 billion in military payroll and $311.6 million in civilian payroll, spread across El Paso County, Colorado. That payroll is a recession-insensitive income stream behind service, retail and flex commercial tenants near the installation, and it is a stronger underwriting anchor than a single corporate lease.
Is the Space Command headquarters move to Huntsville a reason to discount Colorado Springs commercial demand?
No, and treating it that way misreads the timeline. The headquarters relocation to Huntsville is real and underway, but it runs on a phased schedule to the early 2030s, and the Joint Operations Center, the command's day-to-day hub for worldwide military space operations, stays in Colorado Springs until the permanent Huntsville facility is finished. As of mid-2026 only about 100 headquarters personnel had moved against a headquarters staff of roughly 1,700 to 1,800. Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base, Schriever Space Force Base and Cheyenne Mountain, none of which are part of the relocation, are a far larger share of the metro's federal footprint. See our CRE bridge program for an asset still stabilizing around that tenant base.
What other federal facilities anchor long-hold commercial demand in Colorado Springs?
Cheyenne Mountain, the US Air Force Academy, and the Space Force installations around the Powers corridor are not part of any relocation plan. Cheyenne Mountain is the underground command and control facility for NORAD and US Northern Command, and the Academy anchors the north end of the metro in its own school district. Together with Fort Carson, they support a regional cluster the local economic development corporation describes as more than 200 aerospace, cybersecurity and defense companies employing roughly 111,000 people. No metro-level CRE vacancy, rent or cap-rate figure has been sourced for this cluster, so a permanent quote here is built from the specific lease and tenant, not a published market comp.
Does a Colorado Springs metro district affect the tax line on a commercial permanent loan?
It can, and it can be a large swing. Newer El Paso County, Colorado commercial parcels inside the City of Colorado Springs can sit inside a Title 32 metropolitan district capped at 30 mills of residential debt service or 50 mills of commercial debt service, plus up to 10 mills of operating levy, on top of the county and city base. City Council has approved exceedances of those caps in some cases, so the caps are the norm, not a guarantee. Pull the parcel's actual mill levy from the El Paso County, Colorado Treasurer before underwriting; a metro or county average will be wrong on most commercial parcels built in the last fifteen years.
Can a Colorado Springs asset that isn't stabilized yet still line up permanent financing later?
Yes. Get it leased up first, and refinance into permanent debt once the rent roll is signed. We place both sides in-house: a bridge loan carries the property through lease-up or repositioning, and once it performs, we shop the file across agency multifamily programs, insurance companies and wholesale lenders for the structure that fits your hold. Because no El Paso County, Colorado CRE vacancy or cap-rate data has been sourced, the refinance is priced off your actual leases and tenant credit, not a market survey.

About the local figures on this page

Local rules move. Every tax rate, fee, ordinance and market figure here comes from a primary source and carries the date we read it, and we correct them as the rules change. Where a number is mid-change or we could not verify it, we say so rather than guess. Before you commit a budget, confirm anything that drives it with the city or county, and talk to your attorney or CPA on questions of law or tax.
