Cindy Southworth

Winter Haven, FL — Breakwater Coaching has signed a new lease with Six/Ten, LLC at the commercial real estate developer’s Suites on Central.

The company relocated to downtown Winter Haven from its previous office in the Lake Wales area, and offers marriage coaching, marriage intensives and women's coaching services. The office is located at 331 W Central Ave.

"Downtown Winter Haven has warmly embraced us and our clients,” said Breakwater Coaching Co-founders Cindy and David Southworth, who have been in marriage ministry for the last 12 years. 

“It’s a great place to come for a coaching session and then go on a dinner date to one of the many fine local restaurants."

The Southworths said they moved from Lake Wales because they felt the warmth of the Winter Haven downtown area and have great relationships with several local churches.

RealtyTrac Reports Share of Seriously Underwater Foreclosure Properties Drops to New Low in Q2 2015

Daren Blomquist

IRVINE, CA — RealtyTrac® (www.realtytrac.com), the nation’s leading source for comprehensive housing data, today released its Q2 2015 U.S. Home Equity & Underwater Report, which shows that as of the end of the second quarter there were 7,443,580 U.S. residential properties that were seriously underwater — where the combined loan amount secured by the property is at least 25 percent higher than the property’s estimated market value — representing 13.3 percent of all properties with a mortgage.

“Slowing home price appreciation in 2015 has resulted in the share of seriously underwater properties plateauing at about 13 percent of all properties with a mortgage,” said Daren Blomquist, vice president at RealtyTrac.

 “However, the share of homeowners with the double-whammy of seriously underwater properties that are also in foreclosure is continuing to decrease and is now at the lowest level we’ve seen since we began tracking that metric in the first quarter of 2012.”

Adam J. Tiktin

HALLANDALE BEACH, FL – Marcus & Millichap (NYSE: MMI), a leading commercial real estate investment services firm with offices throughout the United States and Canada, announced the sale of 0.88 acres of land improved with a restaurant and mixed-use building in Hallandale Beach, Fla. The asset sold for $3,800,000.

Adam J. Tiktin, a first vice president investments in Marcus & Millichap’s Miami office, and Michael Biama, a senior associate in the firm’s Washington D.C. office, had the exclusive listing to market the property on behalf of the seller, a private investor from Hallandale Beach, Fla.  The buyer was a limited liability company from Hollywood, Fla.

“This property is located just south of one of the busiest intersections in South Florida directly across the street from Gulfstream Park,” says Tiktin.

“Due to the high profile nature of this property, we were able to attract a purchaser interested in redeveloping the site into a 40,000-square foot office condo project. 

"At just under $100 per square foot for the land, we feel that the price we achieved pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in today’s market,” adds Biama.

Located at 124 South Federal Highway, the offering encompasses four separate parcels, totaling .88 acres, and two structures, totaling 7,604 square feet. 

The first is a 5,182-square foot restaurant which sits directly on Federal Highway and has excellent visibility to both north and south bound traffic.
