CBRE ARRANGES SALE-LEASEBACK OF MIAMI INDUSTRIAL ASSET

November 10, 2014

Bulk distribution facility in Gratigny Industrial Park sold for $10.1 million

Miami, FL – November 10, 2014 – (RealEstateRama) — CBRE arranged the sale of a 184,210-square-foot bulk storage distribution facility in Miami, FL to Gramercy Property Trust, a publicly traded REIT based out of New York. The asset at 3350-3450 NW 112th Street in the Gratigny Industrial Park was acquired for $10.1 million from NW 112 Street Properties, LLC, a private local operator. The Seller, a document storage company known as International Data Depository, will remain in the building as a tenant. CBRE represented the buyer in this transaction.

“This transaction is just another example of the tremendous demand for well-located and functional industrial product in the Miami market. Gratigny Industrial Park consistently outperforms the market due to its functional buildings and strong tenant base and as a result, over the years, ownership in the park has become more institutional,” said CBRE Vice President Devin White.

“At closing, the vacancy rate in the Gratigny Industrial Park was less than 2% while vacancy throughout the Miami market was 4.6%. Because of the strong fundamentals of this submarket, Gramercy moved quickly when presented with this off-market opportunity,” said CBRE Associate Andrew Lehrer.

Built in 1973 and 1979 on a 6.31-acre site, the property features plenty of loading for box trucks to 53’ foot trucks, rail service by CSX, 22- to-26-foot clear ceiling heights, and T-5 lighting with motion sensors throughout the warehouse.
CBRE Senior Vice President David Albert assisted Devin and Andrew in the transaction.
