  ORLANDO, FL, Jan. 17, 2023 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged $45.1 million in construction financing for the development of Commerce 429, a two-phase, eight-building, Class A industrial facility totaling 485,813 square feet in Ocoee, Florida, a municipality located within the greater Orlando MSA.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, McCraney Property Company, to secure the four-year construction financing.

 

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the borrower was led by Managing Director Melissa Rose, Director Michael DiCosimo and Analyst Mateo Bolivar.

 

“The lender provided a great execution, closing through a volatile time in the capital markets,” said Rose. “Construction financing for spec industrial project is still available for best-in-class sponsors developing premium projects in growth markets.”

 

The entire project will comprise eight buildings totaling over 485,000 square feet of Class A industrial space.


Mateo Bolivar
The first phase of the project consists of six rear-load buildings with sizes ranging from approximately 27,000 square feet to 131,000 square feet.

 

 The second phase of the project will consist of two rear-load buildings totaling approximately 76,000 square feet and 95,000 square feet, respectively.

 

Commerce 429 is located on an approximately 40-acre site at 1290 Ocoee Apopka Rd. The property has direct frontage on SR-429 and strong access to the Florida Turnpike, Orlando International Airport and the International Drive Corridor. The site is within four hours of every major MSA in Florida.

 

The property is located within Northwest Orange County, a high-performing industrial submarket of the Orlando MSA.

 

Northwest Orange County has seen outsized tenant demand relative to inventory, with current vacancy at 3.6% and 32% rent growth since 2020 - over twice Orlando MSA’s rent growth of 14% since 2020.
