It was AXA Equitable Life Insurance Co. that provided the fixed-rate loan through its advisor, Quadrant Real Estate Advisors.<\/p>\n<p>Located at 509 Olive Way in downtown Seattle, Medical Dental is a unique MOB, and not just because of its historic status or the fact that it was originally built as an MOB so long ago and continues to serve as one. The 18-story tower is 97 percent leased to a roster of 150 tenants, most of whom have passed the space down from generation to generation. The property also features 12,600 square feet of ground-level retail space occupied by a pharmacy.  And over the years, the building has been kept in tiptop shape; it was last updated in 2008 to the tune of $25 million.<\/p>\n<p>Medical Dental caught the eye of lenders for more than a few reasons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe property could not be in a more ideal location; it is next door to Nordstrom, has its own bus stop at the front door and is one block from Amazon\u2019s three-block corporate expansion and other downtown core amenities,\u201d Davidson added. \u201cAdditional attributes include a Best of Class Sponsor in Goodman Real Estate and the unique \u2018sticky\u2019 tenant base of smaller family medical practices that transfer down generations and rarely leave.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HFF proves that age is just a number as it lands financing in the Emerald City. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":969,"featured_media":1004127460,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21808,21825,21783,21754,21742,21747,15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004127383","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-finance","category-investment","category-medical-office","category-latest","category-office","category-west"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
