1250 Medical Plaza:Off Market Property total sale price $16,079,237
Broker/Consultant
One of the premier medical office buildings in Florida, located adjacent to Sarasota Memorial Hospital. It took almost one year to get a meeting with the owner of the building. After several meetings the owner agreed to let us “quietly” shop the building. After several months a potential buyer was identified. Over the next year and a half, we assisted the owner in maximizing the value of the building through lease-up of vacant spaces. Further we assisted the out-of-town buyer in acquiring purchase rights to the medical condo units that the developer sold years prior, which immediately added value for the buyers at closing.
Subsequently the buyer has engaged us exclusively to head their acquisition and lease activities in West and Central regions of Florida. We are also working with the seller to identify and purchase commercial real estate opportunities in West and Central Florida.

Broker/Consultant
30,000 square foot value add retail center. Worked with owners for over a year to located and negotiate property to meet their criteria. The challenge with Colonial Center was the terms of the owner financing. Deal appeared to have “died” a number of times, but together with the team, we suggested several options for both the buyer and seller to consider. In the end we were able to put the deal together to everyone’s liking. We continue to assist owner in remaining lease-up of vacant units and management of property as needed.
