PROPERTY: 106 Harbor Village Lane, 148 Leisey Road and portions of U.S. 41 and Golf and Sea Boulevard, Apollo Beach

PLANS, DESCRIPTION:
Bloomfield Hills, Mich.-based real estate private equity fund Alidade Capital LLC purchased the 93,985-square-foot MiraBay Village retail center and an adjacent 9.79-acre development site for $12.25 million.
The price equated to $130 per square foot for just the retail space. That figure is less than the two-year average price per square foot for retail space ($138) in the Tampa Bay area, according to the CoStar Group.

Anchored by a Winn-Dixie supermarket, the 6-year-old center and its four outparcels also house H&R Block, Keller Williams Realty, the Apollo Beach Chamber of Commerce, Kimi's Ice Cream and Asian Buffet. The center was 75% occupied at the time of the sale.

The 9.79-acre undeveloped land is zoned for a future residential development of 20 units per acre. The property and retail center are next to the 750-acre MiraBay waterfront community and the residential master-planned community Waterset.

An HFF investment sales team led by Luis Castillo, Matt Mitchell, Danny Finkle and Kimberly Flore represented the seller, Northwood Investors.

The opportunity to acquire a recently-built shopping center in a fast-growing Florida market was appealing to investors,” Castillo says in a press release. “MiraBay Village is a dominant center and very well-positioned in its market.”

Alidade Capital had not replied to a request for comment as of a deadline.

The purchase entity, Alidade Mirabay LLC, mortgaged the property to Associated Bank National Association for $7.8 million.
