 The 107,390-square-foot Treasure Island Retail is 100 percent leased to two tenants, Ashley Furniture HomeStore and Ollie’s Bargain Outlet. 

Treasure Island Storage’s three-story facility spans 98,214 net rentable square feet and houses 762 climate-controlled units in addition to 13 surface parking spaces.  The facility features a ground-floor loading area, commercial loading docks and retail supplies on site.

The HFF team representing the seller in the Treasure Island Retail transaction was led by managing director Chris Munley.

The HFF team representing the seller for the Treasure Island Storage transaction was led by managing director Richard Schontz and director Barbara Guffey.

“The Treasure Island Storage and retail property is a unique asset developed by the seller, who owns several types of commercial real estate investments,” Schontz said. 

“Prior to going to market, we advised the seller to create a condominium structure to allow for flexibility in the marketing process. 
"We were able to offer the property to the market as one asset or individual assets and uses, which allowed us to access the appropriate buyer pool for each use.  Ultimately, were able to create more activity, yielding 15 offers and a significant premium in the sale price by selling each condominium to separate buyers.”

“This is a great example of how HFF approaches each deal by putting the best team on the field,” Munley added.  “We were able to work as a team across our product specialties to think creatively and execute on a complicated deal.”
