S&N Debt Solutions Taps Northbridge Pavilion For New Company's Headquarters Office

Northbridge Pavilion, 515 North Flagler Drive, West Palm Beach, FL

WEST PALM BEACH, FL – Massachusetts-based S&N Debt Solutions has selected Northbridge Pavilion as the headquarters location for a newly formed debt servicing settlement company, inking a 5.5-year lease for a full floor of class A office space with unobstructed views of the Intracoastal Waterway.

Occupancy is eyed for early April. The company has leased the 14,050-sf top floor of the four-story pavilion at 515 N. Flagler Dr., owned by Dallas-based Gaedeke Group.

 Representing the landlord was Gaedeke vice president Kirk Fetter, who offices in the Northbridge complex.

"Northbridge Pavilion was the first building we saw. We toured about a dozen and we circled back to that one," says Shawn MacLean, COO of S&N and principal broker of BLC Real Estate of Beverly, Mass.

 "The space is fantastic. I've been in the real estate business for a while and typically it's not the first space that will win out."

The 41,231-sf pavilion is adjacent to Gaedeke's iconic 247,002-sf Northbridge Centre, a 21-story design known near and far as the "Darth Vader Building."

The Energy Star-certified project features a five-star amenity package, including concierge services and valet parking.  The pavilion boasts a membership-based, 6,000-sf fitness center on the first floor and inviting outdoor space for tenants' corporate events and gatherings on the rooftop terrace.

Northbridge is positioned within the Central Business District and adjacent to the Palm Beach County Judicial Center – both strong attractions for headquarters tenants.

 The newest one, S&N WPB, will be the 13th company to select the premier property for its headquarters address.

S&N Debt Solutions entered the South Florida market last December, forming S&N WPB to acquire the debt settlement servicing unit of AP Processing in West Palm Beach. Since then, the newly formed company has been operating in roughly 3,000 sf of interim space at 4400 N. Congress Ave.

In the coming months, S&N WPB hopes to start hiring in Florida. The Northbridge office will be launched with 12 professionals who are relocating from Massachusetts and another 11 who were retained after the acquisition. By year's end, the head count could hit 70 employees in sales, client services, settlement servicing and information technology.

S&N began the site search roughly six months ago amid negotiations with AP Processing, which was its first acquisition. 

The parent company was formed in July 2011 and now operates in 26 states. Nicole Morgan is president of S&N and MacLean's wife, Shannon, is vice president.

"Due to rapid growth, S&N is looking forward to moving into the larger accommodations at Northbridge," MacLean says. "In the past six months, I reached out to a number of brokers in West Palm Beach. Kirk's performance and responsiveness have been exemplary."
