Crossings at Chapel Hill The Crossings at Chapel Hill in Pasco, WA offers homes in the center of the Tri-Cities.

PASCO, WA—The origination of a $97.85 million Fannie Mae credit facility provided permanent fixed-rate financing for the acquisition of five multifamily assets on behalf of Investors Capital Group LLC. The structured facility features five tranches of fixed-rate debt with 10- and 12-year terms, half-term interest-only, a 30-year amortization and loan-to-value constraints that allow for 75 to 80% ratios.

The rates for the five tranches range from 4.34 to 5.15% and were locked for four months. The facility allows future additions, substitutions and flexible prepayment. Managing director Jeff Stuart of Berkadia's Seattle office handled the transaction.

“Everyone involved in this transaction did a great job of working together to get these five acquisitions across the finish line,” said Stuart. “Fannie Mae's structured finance team and ICG's acquisition team demonstrated exemplary teamwork to get the facility structured and closed. This is an advantageous facility for ICG's 2018 apartment fund, which raised $61 million in equity to acquire 1,012 multifamily units across five properties.”

The five properties acquired are in four western states: Washington, Idaho, Utah and Arizona. Avenue5 Residential, a Seattle-based residential management company with a national footprint, will manage the portfolio. Avenue5 manages more than 50,000 units nationwide.

“This acquisition fits into ICG's investment thesis of buying quality multifamily with realistic income expectations and improving operations with superior management. The average unit size was quite large at 1,172 square feet and the purchase price is considerably less than the replacement cost,” Stuart tells GlobeSt.com. “The Tri-Cities market is exhibiting strong job and population growth. Investors have a strong appetite for Tri-Cities product because properties can be purchased at yields approximately 100 bps higher than comparable Seattle MSA multifamily. Seattle trades for low 4 caps versus the Tri-Cities at mid-5 cap rates.”
