ST. PETERSBURG, FL, Jan.
18, 2017 – Marcus & Millichap (NYSE: MMI), a leading commercial real estate
investment services firm with offices throughout the United States and Canada,
today announced the sale of a 2.88-acre former mobile home park located in St.
Petersburg, Florida, according to Ari
Ravi, regional manager of the firm’s Tampa office. The asset sold for
$925,000.
“The site was originally
planned for a 44-unit townhome community back in 2006, but sat vacant for the
past decade as a result of the housing crash. The incoming buyer is an
international developer based in China, and is planning a mid-rise student
housing property called International House,” says Casey Babb.
“The pre-development work is currently in the final
stages and the buyer hopes to break ground in the second quarter of 2017 to
begin leasing for the 2018 Fall semester.”
Babb, CCIM
and vice president investments, and Paul
Bouldin, senior associate, both in Marcus & Millichap’s Tampa office,
had the exclusive listing to market the property on behalf of the seller. Julie Yo of ReMax Capital Realty
represented the buyer.
The site, located at 99th
Avenue North in St. Petersburg, Florida, is planned for a mid-rise student
housing property overlooking Tampa Bay and downtown St. Petersburg and catering
to international students.
The property is an
irreplaceable infill development site located within the Gateway Business
District, which contains over 30 million square feet of Class “A” and “B”
office and industrial space and is home to 2,700 businesses and 60,000
employees. The turn-key site has considerable pre-development work completed,
and is ideally situated on Gandy Boulevard within Florida’s most densely
populated county.
