New Publix, Beall’s Outlet, Walgreens and Burger King stores were constructed and began operating in 2011. The property was 83% leased at the time of sale.

 Jim Michalak and Mike Cvetetic of Plaza Advisors represented the seller in the transaction. No other brokers were involved in the sale. The seller and buyer were French Golden Gate LLC and The Phillips Edison Group LLC, respectively. 

 “The capital market demand, including debt providers, for Publix anchored assets is overwhelming which commonly results in a tremendous amount of investor interest and elevated pricing” Jim Michalak stated.

Additionally Michalak emphasized that “the compelling reasons for the aggressive bidding for this asset were: the new Publix, Walgreens, Burger King and Beall’s Outlet long-term leases, investment grade credit and the 24,000 sf of vacant space, which presents considerable NOI growth potential”.

Mike Cvetetic
 Plaza Advisors specializes in the disposition of anchored shopping centers located throughout Florida. The company has successfully closed nine centers since December 2013. Those closings included: six Winn Dixie and two Publix anchored assets.
