CRE Permanent in Tacoma

Tacoma commercial permanent financing, sized for a 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. Tacoma's stabilized deals lean on three payrolls that do not move: Joint Base Lewis-McChord, the Port of Tacoma, and the MultiCare and Virginia Mason Franciscan hospital systems. 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 Tacoma, answered.

What kind of commercial property in Tacoma actually qualifies for permanent debt?
Stabilized, income-producing property with signed leases, most commonly industrial and flex space in the Tideflats and the Fife, Sumner and Puyallup valley that rides the port and I-5. The Port of Tacoma and the Northwest Seaport Alliance South Harbor supported 41,095 jobs and roughly $10.8 billion in revenue in 2023, a genuine cargo-driven tenant base for warehouse and last-mile space. No Tacoma-wide CRE vacancy, rent or cap-rate figure has been sourced, so a permanent quote here is built from your executed leases and tenant credit rather than a market survey.
Why is healthcare a strong institutional tenant story in Tacoma?
Because both of the region's major systems are anchored here and both are expanding. MultiCare Health System is headquartered in Tacoma, and Virginia Mason Franciscan Health is also growing its Tacoma clinical footprint. No verified headcount for either system was located this pass, so we do not put a number on it here. We underwrite the specific lease and tenant credit in front of us rather than a market comp.
How much does Joint Base Lewis-McChord matter to a stabilized Tacoma commercial deal?
It's the largest employer in Pierce County, and most of its workforce spends its paycheck off base. JBLM employs roughly 40,000 military personnel and about 15,000 civilians, and about 70% of the JBLM workforce lives off post in the surrounding Pierce County communities. That off-base spending underwrites the flex, service and retail commercial demand around Lakewood and the I-5 corridor even when a specific tenant has no direct base contract.
How does Pierce County's annual property tax revaluation affect NOI on a stabilized Tacoma asset?
There's no acquisition-triggered reset and no cap to hide behind: every parcel is revalued every year. Pierce County revalues all taxable property annually, with a physical inspection cycle covering one sixth of the county each year, so an improvement that lifts market value shows up in the following year's assessment on schedule. Model your tax line rising with the asset's value, not with the purchase price, and note the appeal deadline: the Pierce County Board of Equalization by July 1 of the assessment year, or within 60 days of the value-change notice, whichever is later.
Does Washington tax the income or the eventual sale of my Tacoma commercial property?
Washington has no personal or corporate income tax on income earned today, and its capital gains excise tax does not touch real estate transferred by a recorded deed, so a sale of the property itself sits outside that tax. A separate 9.9% tax on individual income above $1,000,000, which expressly reaches rental and pass-through income, is scheduled for tax years beginning 2028 and is under legal challenge, so it does not touch a file you write today. The business and occupation tax largely misses passive real estate too: gross proceeds from selling or renting real estate are exempt, though lending interest, management fees and license-type arrangements can still be B&O relevant. Selling the entity that holds the asset, rather than the deed, can create exposure the direct-sale route does not. Talk to your Washington CPA about the sale structure before you pick one.
What if my Tacoma commercial property isn't stabilized yet?
Get it leased up first, then 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 long-term structure that fits your hold. Because no Tacoma-wide CRE vacancy, rent or cap-rate data has been sourced, the refinance is priced off your actual leases and tenant credit at the time you're ready, not a published market rate.

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.
