TUKWILA, WASH. — Sortis Holdings Inc. (SOHI), a Portland-based private equity firm, has provided equity funding for Tukwila Village Phase II, a mixed-income senior living development in Tukwila, approximately 10 miles south of Seattle. Sortis invested capital from its $100 million Sortis Opportunity Zone Fund alongside project sponsor Bryan Park, a Puyallup, Wash.-based developer that has developed, owns and operates more than 5,000 senior living apartments in Washington. Nonprofit operator Sustainable Housing for Ageless Generations (SHAG) will operate the community. “By 2050, the population of individuals who are 65 and older in the U.S. is projected to double, yet rising rents and lack of supply have reduced the availability of affordable, high-quality housing in desirable locations for this population,” says Paul Brenneke, Sortis founder. “We believe delivering a high-quality project with attractive investment returns while simultaneously providing an affordable housing option to low-income seniors is a win-win.” The two-phase project is situated on approximately 5.8 acres. Phase II comprises 204 apartment units exclusively for seniors, six live/work units, approximately 8,300 square feet of commercial/retail space and structured parking. Once Phase II is complete in late 2020, the combined project will be the third-largest senior living development in Washington, according to …

Seattle has always been a strong industrial market, known for its busy ports and, more recently, its position as one of the most successful tech hubs outside of Silicon Valley. As the global economy continues to shift toward the Internet of things (IoT), Seattle industrial space is catapulting into a new category of demand. That growth is spurred on by companies like Microsoft, Amazon and Google, which continue to expand their footprints here and generate a growing inflow of technology, population and industrial requirements. The ports of Seattle and Tacoma were ranked among the busiest in the nation at the end of 2018. They collectively processed nearly 3 million TEUs (or 20-foot equivalent shipping container unit) in volume. Year-over-year, Seattle’s TEU has also grown by 27.5 percent, one of the fastest growth rates of all U.S ports. This activity has kept the Puget Sound industrial vacancy rate at 4.9 percent as of the second quarter of 2019. Industrial inventory in close-in areas of South Seattle like the Georgetown submarket has tightened to an even lower 1 percent vacancy rate. Rents, meanwhile, have increased north of $1.20 per square foot as more and more buildings are converted to creative office and …
