Seattle, WA, June 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nicola Wealth Real Estate (NWRE) acquired Gateway Corporate Center buildings 5 & 6 in Tukwila, WA. This transaction, brokered by Will Frame, Andy Miller, Richard Davidson, and Drew Frame of Kidder Matthews expands NWRE’s presence in the firm’s top US market.
The acquisition features two light industrial / flex office buildings totaling 85,104 sf on 5.24 acres located within Gateway Corporate Center in close proximity to the I-5 and SeaTac International Airport, where NWRE already owns buildings 1, 2, 3 & 8. The multi-tenant light industrial and flex office park are currently 95% occupied.

“Our team continues to search for similar opportunities” Schaeffers adds, “multi-tenant, high utility, well located small to mid-bay industrial that is no longer economical to build.”
NWRE is concentrated on growing in major US markets such as Las Vegas, Phoenix, Denver, Dallas / Ft. Worth, San Francisco, Minneapolis, and Seattle with a focus on acquiring income-producing properties, executing build to own development and value-add strategies.
