CBRE Arranges $81.15 Million Sale of Fairway Office Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

Palm Beach Gardens, FL – January 21, 2022 – CBRE has facilitated the $81.15 million sale of the fee simple interest in Fairway Office Center in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., on behalf of NAI MHC and a JV Institutional Investment Manager. Fairway Office Center is comprised of three Class-A office buildings totaling 222,682 square feet.

 

The sellers were exclusively represented by Christian Lee, José Lobón and Marcos Minaya with CBRE Capital Markets, with the assistance of CBRE’s Tom Rappa. The leasing broker for the property, Jason Sundook with NAI Merin Hunter Codman, also assisted in the marketing.

 

Currently 78 percent leased, Fairway Office Center is located on a 16-acre campus at 7108, 7111 and 7121 Fairway Drive. The property is being acquired by a joint venture of Parmenter Realty Partners and an affiliate of Prime Finance, representing their second recent office acquisition in South Florida.

 

“The seller did a fantastic job of institutionally maintaining the property reflected in increased rental rates as well as continued and historically high levels of occupancy. The $1.3 million in recent improvements to the buildings creates an exceptional opportunity to attract tenants. The new ownership plans to capitalize on the property’s highly desirable location and to continue to upgrade and amenitize the project.” explained Marcos Minaya, Vice President, CBRE.

 

“Fairway Office Center is the only Class-A office building in the North Palm Beach submarket that is adjacent to the Florida Turnpike. This strategic location, excellent connectivity and proximate amenities make Fairway Office Center an ideal office location for executives and employees alike,” added Christian Lee, Vice Chairman, CBRE.

 

“These high-quality buildings benefit from excellent transit access, nearby amenities, and the strong Palm Beach County leasing market. The migration of hedge funds and other financial services firms moving into the market drove nearly 250,000 square feet of new-to-market tenants in 2021. Our planned improvements will provide the finishes and amenities these new to market tenants are looking for.” said John Davidson, President and CEO, Parmenter Realty Partners.

 

The property’s location on PGA Boulevard is proximate to in-demand retail for the micro-market inclusive of Mirasol Walk, PGA Commons and Downtown PGA, placing it within a short drive to more than 50 restaurants and bars, 250 hotel rooms, 50 retail shops and two fitness centers.
