Sawgrass International Corporate Park, Sunrise, FL

 Sunrise, FL --  T&M Florida has secured 18,500 square feet of renewals at Sawgrass International Corporate Park in Sunrise, FL  following M-M Properties’ $75 million purchase of the four building office portfolio.

 The new ownership’s focus now centers on leasing the portfolio’s remaining 7% of available space including a full floor of 24,000 square feet.

 “With the limited supply of new and existing Class A office space in the Sawgrass market, it’s getting harder and harder for companies to find large contiguous amounts of space,” said Joel McCarty Senior Vice President of M-M Properties. “Office rates will continue to rise as supply dwindles.”

The portfolio’s centralized location with access to both the Fort-Lauderdale-Hollywood and Miami International Airports make it an ideal location for corporate headquarters and regional offices. 

Donna Korn and Jennifer Gemma of T&M Florida negotiated the two recent renewals on behalf of the buildings’ owner.

Bureau Veritas renewed an 11,500 square foot lease at 1601 Sawgrass Centre. The company is a world leader in laboratory testing, inspection and certification services. Created in 1828, the Group has around 66,700 employees located in 1,400 offices and laboratories around the globe. Rod Loschiavo and Lauren Gallart of JLL represented the tenant in the transaction. 


Donna Korn
All Risks, LTD renewed a 7,000 square foot lease at 1551 Sawgrass Centre. The insurance company headquartered in Hunt Valley, Maryland, is the largest national independent wholesale brokerage firm. 

The 51-year-old firm employs over 750 staff members throughout the U.S. CBRE brokers Jeff Holding and A.J. Belt represented the tenant in the transaction.

The four buildings within the M-M Properties portfolio are located at 1550-1560 and 1551-1601 Sawgrass Corporate Parkway. They total 348,676 square feet on 28.1 acres within the Sawgrass Park submarket of Broward County.

The properties are 93 percent leased to tenants such as Centene Management, eFund Corporation, Regus Business Centre, and Marsh USA, Inc. 

The office park is close to Interstates 75 and 595, just southwest of the second most visited attraction in Florida, the Sawgrass Mills Mall, an area which sees more than 25 million 
visitors per year.
