SEATTLE, WA (October 28, 2025) – A former Baxter Auto Parts store in Tacoma where Tesla Inc. is planning a collision center traded Oct. 15 for $7.4 million, according to Pierce County records.

Matt McLennan and Chris Trussel, both with Kidder Mathews, and Tyler Dean of Macadam Forbes represented the seller. The buyer was represented by Zane Shiras and Amanda Hahnemann of Lee & Associates.

“This listing generated a high volume of inquiries and showings, underscoring strong demand for stand-alone, mid-size industrial buildings in the North Tacoma submarket,” McLennan said in a news release. "A motivated buyer and aligned expectations allowed both sides to accelerate timelines and close ahead of schedule."
