Longpoint drops $116M for Broward industrial portfolio

Longpoint Partners paid a combined $115.6 million for a Broward County industrial portfolio that is part of a larger deal also involving warehouses in Miami-Dade.

Affiliates of Boston-based Longpoint acquired nine buildings spanning nearly 605,000 square feet in Davie, Deerfield Beach, Fort Lauderdale and Lauderhill, according to records. The deeds showing the sales prices for the Miami-Dade properties have not been posted on the online records section of the county clerk’s website. 

Including the properties in Miami-Dade, Longpoint’s purchase is the largest industrial transaction in South Florida this year, a CBRE press release states.

A CBRE team led by Jose Lobón and Frank Fallon represented the portfolio’s seller, Conshohocken, Pennsylvania-based Seagis Property Group. 

A spokesperson for CBRE and Longpoint declined comment about the total purchase price for the entire portfolio, which entails 25 buildings with 1.4 million square feet of industrial space

The portfolio was 97 percent leased with 77 tenants at the time of sale, the release states.
