Commercial Observer: Peachtree Closes $53MM CPACE Loan for Suburban Portland Residential Community

Commercial Observer - Kirkland Development has sealed $53.3 million of Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) financing to execute energy-efficient and resiliency enhancements to a planned residential community in southwest Washington just north of Portland, Ore., Commercial Observer has learned.
Peachtree Group closed the 30-year CPACE loan for Kirkland’s The Ledges at Palisades development in Camas, Wash. The Ledges consists of 51 condominiums and 90 rental apartments slated for completion in late 2025. Loan proceeds will fund sustainability upgrades, qualifying soft costs and improvements to the five-story property’s resiliency, HVAC system, lighting and plumbing.
Jared Schlosser, Peachtree Group’s senior vice president, said the loan will help complete the long-planned project that stalled during the COVID-19 pandemic, adding that it underscores how C-PACE can be utilized for bringing projects across the finish line.
“PACE is a great tool to come in particularly mid-construction because here there were some cost overruns and some delays due to COVID and other things, so this really helped jump-start the project,” Schlosser said. “We funded some of the previously completed line items as well as some of the future funding that needs to happen to finish the project.”
