An affiliate of ˿Ƶ Corp. bought a “Class A” office building in Sunrise from Flagler Development Group for $18.925 million – a discount to its last trade 10 years ago.
FDG Sunrise Corporate Plaza, an affiliate of Flagler and parent company Florida East Coast Industries, sold the 112,601-square-foot office at 1300 Sawgrass Corporate Parkway to SPF Sunrise Corporate Plaza I, an affiliate of Fort Lauderdale-based ˿Ƶ. PNC Bank financed the deal with a $12.565 million loan.
˿Ƶ said 106,648 square feet in the building is rentable. The price for Sunrise Corporate Plaza equates to $177 per square foot.
“Sunrise Corporate Plaza is a prime office property with a quality tenant roster and large, flexible floor plates that generate the efficiencies a wide range of tenants are seeking today,” said Kyle Jones, managing of the ˿Ƶ Property Fund. “The opportunity to acquire an asset at a minimum 30 percent below replacement cost in an increasingly tight submarket made this investment attractive.”
The three-story office building was developed on the 7.9-acre site in 1999. Flagler acquired it for $19.5 million in 2005. ˿Ƶ said it plans to invest capital to upgrade the common areas.
Tenants include Pediatrix Medical Group, MacNeill Group, Kforce Staffing, Bankers Mortgage Lending and Focus Finance.
˿Ƶ has a long history in Sunrise as it was the original developer of the Sawgrass International Corporate Park.
