Seattle Investment Fund LLC

Seattle WA


The City of Seattle created the Seattle Investment Fund LLC to help revitalize Seattle’s Low Income Communities. The CDE will use NMTCs to help achieve three primary goals: (1) to support catalytic projects that leverage other public investments; (2) to fill financing gaps caused by the contraction of credit in the real estate and business financing markets; and (3) to promote the development of small businesses. The City will structure NMTC financing as a leveraged debt/equity product providing end-users with permanent equity or a reduced interest rate debt product in which the end-user will receive loans with rates as low as 50 percent below-market rate. Products will be provided with terms more favorable than conventional financing.
