Gantry, Inc., the largest independent commercial mortgage banking firm in the U.S., has secured $30 million of permanent financing for the M Building, a luxury 10-story residential building in the heart of downtown Spokane, WA.

Demetri Koston, Principal with Gantry’s Spokane office, arranged the financing on behalf of the borrower. The 25-year loan was arranged with one of many life insurance companies the company represents in the Inland Northwest.

The M is an impressive building originally developed in 1914, and occupied by Bon Marche, and then by Macy’s, before the borrower acquired the property in 2016. The property was converted to a 114-unit apartment building over 40,000 square feet of retail space. The M Building has quickly become a premier address in downtown Spokane, and offers an unparalleled work/live environment to local residents. There are high-end finishes, parking, and the property is pet-friendly, plus most of the apartment units include spectacular vistas. The property is extraordinarily unique, and provides further evidence of the continued investment taking place in downtown Spokane.
