PEMBROKE PINES, FL, December 18, 2017 — Cushman & Wakefield announced today that it has negotiated the sale of Pembroke Pointe 880, a 143,535-square-foot Class A office building Broward County.
The Cushman & Wakefield Capital Markets team of Scott O’Donnell, Mike Davis, Michael Lerner, Dominic Montazemi, Miguel Alcivar, Greg Miller and Rick Brugge represented Duke Realty in the disposition. Pembroke Pointe Office LLC, an affiliate of Miami-based Midtown Capital Partners, LLC, acquired the asset.
Jason Hochman of Cushman & Wakefield’s international Equity, Debt and Structured Finance (EDSF) platform assisted in securing a $22.7 million, long-term acquisition loan on behalf of the buyer.
Pembroke Pointe 880 was developed in 2015. The building features 36,111-square-foot floor plates designed for maximum efficiency and space utilization; upscale lobby and common areas; ample parking for tenants (5.5 parking spaces per 1,000 rentable square feet); and Interstate 75 frontage with high-visibility signage opportunities.
Pembroke Pointe 880 was 86 percent leased at the time of sale. Notable tenants include Global Medical Management, Elizabeth Arden, CES Consultants, Inc., Boxy Charm, Kronos Incorporated, Corestaff, Devry Education Group and Evolution Lighting LLC.
The asset’s central location at 880 SW 145th Avenue in southwest Broward County provides convenient access to Interstate 75, Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport and Miami International Airport. The park is supported by numerous local retail and dining service providers, including the adjacent ±400,000-square-foot Shops at Pembroke Gardens.
“Capitalized with off-shore equity sources, Midtown Capital Partners, LLC appreciated this extremely well-constructed office asset recently developed by Duke Realty,” said O’Donnell. “The property is prominently located along I-75 in a very strong suburban office market, thereby attracting significant buyer interest.”
Cushman & Wakefield assisted Duke Realty in achieving maximum value for the asset through an aggressive leasing campaign led by the office leasing team of Deanna Lobinsky,Travis Herring, Katherine Ridgway and Chase Kulp. The team, which was selected to lease the building by Duke Realty in October 2016, secured more than 60,000 square feet of new office leases in 2017.
“We have seen tremendous interest from prospective tenants at Pembroke Pointe 880 in the past 14 months and we anticipate further activity moving forward,” said Lobinsky. “The asset is exceptionally well positioned to capitalize on the current demand for space in a tightening Broward County office market.”
