Maven pays $19M for LA Fitness building in Pompano Beach

Maven Real Estate picked up a standalone retail building leased to L.A. Fitness in Pompano Beach. 

An affiliate of Coral Gables-based Maven, led by Marc Schwarzberg, paid $18.8 million for the two-story gym at 1000 North Federal Highway, records and Vizzda show. The buyer obtained a $9.4 million mortgage from City National Bank of Florida. 

The deal breaks down to $330 per square foot for the 56,904-square-foot building on 5.3 acres. 

Marcus & Millichap represented the seller, an affiliate of Orlando-based NNN REIT, also known as National Retail Properties. 

In 2014, NNN REIT bought the property for $7 million and completed the single-tenant building a year later, records show. 

L.A. Fitness has more than 10 years left on its lease, with an option for six years, followed by two options for five-year renewals, an online offering states. The building generates an annual net operating income of $1.2 million with a rent bump set for 2025, the offering states. 

Led by CEO Stephen Horn Jr., NNN REIT is a publicly traded real estate investment trust that completed $819.7 million in property investments, including the acquisition of 165 net-lease properties, across the U.S. last year, according to the company’s most recent SEC filings. 

Maven and its partner, Miami-based Ubica, last year sold a Coral Gables development site for $11.5 million to Miami-based Cade Capital. Maven and Ubica had previously planned a multifamily project at 103, 130, 152 and 160 Almeria Avenue. 

Among other recent South Florida deals involving single-tenant retail buildings, New York-based ASG Equities last month sold a property leased to an Italian furniture maker in the Miami Design District. Miami Design Center Associates paid $18 million for the single-story store at 80 Northeast 40th Street occupied by Boffi De Padova. 
In December, ASG sold another single-tenant retail building in the Miami Design District for $22 million to Alo Yoga.
