Cushman & Wakefield Arranges $250M Refinancing for 506-Unit Seattle MF

Via Connect CRE · August 24, 2026
Compiled by Real Estate Trail Editorial · August 24, 2026

Why this matters

Multifamily has been the most actively underwritten sector through the rate cycle, with cap rate compression resuming in Sun Belt and gateway markets as 2024-2025 deliveries roll off and refinance demand on 2021-vintage bridge loans clears. Transaction velocity is up modestly, concentrated in stabilized Class A and grocery-adjacent garden assets. Washington office has been a leading conversion market in the cycle, with multiple downtown Class B assets entering office-to-residential programs in the last twelve months. Allocators continue to favor residential for its income durability and its insulation from secular demand questions that still hang over commercial sectors.
