About Mezzanine Loans in Washington

In Washington, 8 lenders currently offer Mezzanine financing with loan amounts from $1M to $100M and rates typically ranging from 10% - 18%.
Washington Market Overview
Washington state's economy is powered by technology giants Amazon and Microsoft, along with Boeing's aerospace operations and the Port of Seattle's international trade. The Seattle metro has experienced transformative commercial growth driven by tech sector expansion.
Washington has no state income tax, but commercial property tax rates and the state's Business and Occupation (B&O) gross receipts tax on commercial rent income must be factored into CRE investment underwriting. Seattle's mandatory affordable housing linkage fees and the city's MHA (Mandatory Housing Affordability) requirements add costs to commercial development but also unlock additional development capacity through upzones. The state's GMA (Growth Management Act) concentrates commercial development within urban growth areas, creating supply constraints that support property values in designated centers while limiting suburban sprawl.
