Amerant is leasing back the property for a period of 18 years from the time of closing.  The buyer was an institutional buyer.

“The current market conditions, combined with the terms of the leaseback agreement, make this a very positive move for the Company both in the near and long term,” said Jerry Plush, vice chairman & CEO of Amerant.

“We previously stated that one of our goals was to reduce the level of fixed assets on our balance sheet, and this transaction is a significant step towards achieving that."


Plush added, “We fully intend to maintain our corporate headquarters in the city of Coral Gables and continue to support the surrounding community for many years to come."

Jonathan Wolfe, Jordan Shtulman and Sasha Dominguez of STREAM Capital Partners represented Amerant in the transaction. 

Dominguez noted that "the South Florida real estate market is attracting capital from across the globe.  We expect to see many more companies in South Florida looking to sell and lease back their corporate-owned real estate as the valuations are extremely attractive today."
